so I got an s7 two years ago and I loved it, hated it and finally got used to it.
two years later and I am still waiting for the latest android update
that was released 7 months ago and
I just realised that I will probably not get the next update.
fuck that i'm getting an iphone se next
So I got an s7 two years ago and I loved it, hated it and finally got used to it
>ishit
lmao
Just flash the leaked and possible unstable Oreo update, flash an aosp rom or wait till the official june update you fucking retard
yeah android is garbage
got oreo on my s8 and android P be out in what 3-4 months?
what a joke, wont get that for 8 more months after release
Trust me, you are going to HATE the iPhone even more after using an Android. Either flash a custom ROM or get a Pixel/Nokia/OnePlus phone that get updated fairly quickly
get cancer retard
I already have a custom rom but I am not going to flash a port that won't work properly
just to reflash when an s7 based custom comes
>just trip knox and lose some features
and your warranty
Meanwhile I can install iOS 11 on an iPhone 4S.
Top kek Samsungfag. Spend less time on making stainless steel refrigerators and more time on your flagship product.
>buy from pool of 3 phones, one being budget tier crap or trip Knox and hope someone supports your phone
yeah much better than iphones
See you guys this time next year for Android P thread and how we don't have it yet
>ishit
wow my pc gets slow too and i can't run all the games after 2 years but i paid $1500 for it! what the frick
>wanting a samsung update when you have official lineageos support
leave this board pls
>bunch of shit doesn't work still including GPS
>tripping knox
wow best update
truth be told i've never a bad experience with an LG phone
pretty good development and great service and support.
also they have great value but i went for the galaxy because of the fucking hype
You could not have possibly offered a weaker counter-argument.
lucky you debunked my whole argument!
fuck you cunt
next time if you want updates buy a google phone instead
I have an S7E btw bitch
>ending support after only 2 years
Samsung has become even more shit now. The S5 was supported for exactly 3 years. Just avoid shit brands, OP. Why did you expect a company that pushes 50 android devices per year to deliver consistent updates? I'd rather trust OnePlus than Samsung.
>tripping knox
How is this even relevant? You lose nothing by doing this.
Try Lineage OS 15.1 beta. I've been using it for a few months without issue on my Exynos S7
i dont want anything but security updates anyway
i hate when they remove features
Except your warranty but I forgot everyone buys top of the line phones every year here
>why doesn't android get like 5-6 years of os updates like ios?
>huh, look at my jpegs
wow, you sure convinced me to waste my money on a chink android phone with those hot argument Jose
Samsung could release one Galaxy and one Note every year and have the same level of support as Apple but they'd rather have twenty other poorfag phones they also have to deal with so the non-poors get fucked royally because Samsung is too jewish to quarantine them and give normal people timely updates.
>imagine spending $1000 on a Note to be told to wait a fucking year for the next Android update, like Samsung knows what's best for you
it is a flagship phone. i would expect it to be supported for at least 2 years but even that seems a bit much for samsung.
also tripping know does somethings.
you lose your warranty, no OTA updates, no samsung pay and also you can't revert to stock bootloader and disable flashing.
you also lose some other security stuff and apps.
i will right away.
but i fucking don't so fuck them
>Buying Flagship Android at Full Price.
It's not worth it. They support their devices as much as they should.
>Moto G5(s) -Plus, Motorolas best selling current phones still don't have Oreo update
I fell for the closer to stock = faster updates meme
what do you mean should?
there are samsung phones that cost over 800€.
why does it matter so much for people to be on the latest android version? what do you possibly need on oreo that's not on nougat? more fucking emojis?
Found the cuck
go back to /v/
God their OS names are an embarrassment.
OP I generally don't take the bait but you're fucking retarded. what do you think Oreo is going to magically do to your phone? samsung already has so many features that aosp or none of the other manufacturers have. You do get decent security updates if you care for that shit. If you care so much about muh updates you could install lineage os.
What I mean is that Flagship Android only lasts about 2 years before it's dropped out of support . So there is no reason why you should be paying top dollar for crap like that.
This
it's fun. i spent half a fucking grand on a toy that doesn't fucking play
this isn't a discussion about muh updates but about the things i am owned
i spent a certain amount of money and expected a certain amount of services which i don't get.
well obviously
You didn't have an argument to debunk.
Remember when everyone wanted to update to LP and brands/carriers took forever to update since it was a bugfest until 5.1?
Maybe same is happening with Oreo. I'm fine with my Moto E4+ running Nougat and getting security updates every couple of months. Just got another one update today, will wait till I get home to install it
My one and only experience with an LG phone was with an Optimus years back. And it was pretty fucking bad- phone slowed to a crawl after 3-4 months of use and then died completely after about 16. My friends' ongoing troubles with their G4s and Nexus 5Xs only reinforce my negative image of them.
>updating any software
>ever
>warranty
Software modifications don't void warranty in almost any country. Besides, warranty is not tied to Samsung but your carrier. And also, warranty is fucking useless. You can pay any shop to fix whatever is wrong with your device. It also lasts 2 years usually, which is exactly when S6 apparently lost the official updates. Nobody said "hey, root your device as soon as you buy it". Root it after your warranty expires.
>would expect it to be supported for at least 2 years
Well, it was released 2 years ago afaik. Don't know the date.
If you're that butthurt about TouchWiz fucking up your update cycle, maybe stop buying phones with shitty skins added on top?
>fuck that i'm getting an iphone se next
Enjoy the phone getting intentionally gimped instead.
just install PajeetROM (deodexed) (botnet) (literal malware)
Will the iToy make you stop R*ddit spacing? Learn to format your posts like an adult, you stupid fucking nigger. You don't need a new line for each sentence.
Unless OP lives in the US, wherein the bootloader has been locked down right by Samsung. It’s a real bummer.
The S7 is confirmed to be getting the Oreo update. Don't be such a reactionary.
>I'm getting an iPhone instead
Enjoy your entirely unusable interface. Takes sixteen taps just to hit one button.
I got an s5 four years ago, let it upgrade to android 5, removed a bunch of bloat, skipped the "upgrade" to android 6 that probably would have bricked the thing and feel no reason to get anything new aside from the librem 5 and its killswitches.
Apple updates make older phones obsolete, iphonenigger retard.
Nigga it is S7. It was released 2 years ago..
Warranty doesn't last your whole lifetime
goddammit samsung. I had high hopes for you..
definitely going applel now.
fuck android. The app store was only good for emulators and being able to torrent/use pirate apps but google is killing that too.
hi aplel shill
I was looking forward to S6 Android Oreo update cause some cunts from Samsung unofficially confirmed it. Samsung can eat shit.
Just switched from an S7 Edge to an iPhone 8 Plus. I’m very happy with it, The phone doesn’t look as nice but I just need it to work. The battery life and speed is incredible.
Another chart WITHOUT FUCKING XIAOMI
God damn shills purposely keeping Xiaomi out of their charts.
iFone suX never gets Android updates LMAO
How's the camera quality?
>Xiaomi
>security
Pick one and only one.
