Based on the official response from Umi Digi Facebook's Official Page (https://www.facebook.com/umicommunity/) made on January 13th, 2018 they said:
"Until now we released Android version upgrades for each flagship model, that had been still in production if the upgrade was technically possible. As manufacturer of the processors, MediaTek provides not only the hardware, but also the Android software development kits (SDK), which are must-have tools for building smartphone ROMs.

What they've provided until now (chip - UMIDIGI model - Android version):
MT6737T (C Note): 6.0 and 7.0
MT6750T (C Note 2, C2, Crystal 4/64GB, S2 Lite): 7.0 and 8.1 coming
MT6755 (Super, MAX, Plus): 6.0 and 7.0
MT6757 (Plus E, S2): 6.0.1 only
MT6757D (Z1, Z1 Pro, S, S2 Pro): 7.0 only
MT6797X (Z, Z Pro): 6.0 and 7.1

Flagship models in the list above: Super, Plus, Plus E, Z1 Pro, S2 Pro, Z, Z Pro.
Each flagship model received Android upgrade if that was technically possible.
Sometimes even lower value models receive such upgrades like the MAX in the past or as the S2 Lite will in the future."

Have a nice day!

Basicly what their saying is that they havent recived the SDK package from mediatek to make android 8 Yet. And that if/when they get it they will make 8,1 for the s2Pro.

..thats why only a few models on the markets have received an upgrade to Orea right now. Its not the fault of the companies. Otherwise its always good to wait a bit. A newly introduced Android version has always its flaws and lacks certain features. So be more on track its useful for the users to see how things from the Mediatek side are going.
