We have known this since the beta edition.
All who tried Oreo Beta, rolled back to Nougat.
Isn't there a way to give it to service and have it rooted with original Android Go ?

Vegetaholic, 27 Jan 2019You buy shit and you expect miracles from it?Well you expect a cheap phone not to break down every update, explode *cough Note 7!* or simply cease to function properly unless it has a hardware issue in which case is a reason to RMA the device. :)

4GB RAM & 64GB Internal storage should be minimum requirements for phones in 2019. No more 2/3GB & 16/32GB options.

Anonymous, 25 Jan 2019Google should make 2GB RAM mandatory for CTS compatibility/... moreYou're right
This is a shady and shameful practice by the larger phone companies to compete with the Asian market

The midrange Lumia 820 from 2013 shows you how old my original purchase is
Blackberry simply left it too late to launch a full touch phone with selfie camera in 2013 so that deputy flagship ( flagship was the Z30) plummeted but that 2013 phone was 2Gb
There should be a notification also that performances with 1Gb will hamper performance

Blame it to Android OS that getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
Even Google Play Services app is eating 200mb alone.
Modern Android OS = more resource hog + more restriction + omitted internet permission.
I missed ICS & Froyo era.

This phone is a cluster fudge. I'm glad mine is only a backup phone in case I need one because it is completely useless for anything other than looking at the home screen. All apps will eventually crash due to lack of memory, Without exception.

Though it might not be possible to do it as OTA update, it seems less likely that it should not be possible flashing from a PC. I'm sure someone at XDA are already experimenting....
