I am pretty sure that gets the same OS updates as all the current 2016 models.
I live in hope that they will go back to adding those back into the range, before mine wears out

[the older ones all have the (mostly disliked) carousel, the newer ones have the let's show every single app on a cluttered home screen UI instead, until you discover that you can move unwanted ones into folders]

they never did do a UK black Friday sales deal on the HD8 but maybe there will be one in January...
The HDX 7 has no 4th gen model.
