After the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge were updated to support RCS Universal Profile 1.0 back in June, T-Mobile is now updating more devices with the feature.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ are now receiving updates that include RCS Universal Profile 1.0 support. This feature brings improvements to the native messaging app, like 100MB attachments and 100 person group chats, so long as you’re messaging a person who also has RCS Universal Profile 1.0. Sprint previously partnered with Google to roll out RCS messaging support.
