I dont see what the fuss is to have "the latest and greatest" android version TBH.

My phone (OnePlus One) used to last a good two days on a charge while on CM11 (android 4.4.4) and the performance took a nosedive after upgrading to CM12 (android 5.0.2)

And I don't even like most of their design changes all that much (particularly the white app drawer)

If your phone works and is missing no big features then why complain?

    I thought HTC was bad when it comes to updates, Samsung is worst

              Samsung! Am fed up! So many new phones are being released by u...yet you fail to offer support(updated software versions) to customers who already bought ur products. I have a galaxy s5 running 5.0 my phone crashes every 3 days...this is very frustrating I need the update that you guys promised. My son has an s4 mini he too is waiting on the update. My galaxy tab 2 is waiting on an update. Will not another samsung product unless u guys take care of existing customers better!

                  Samsung has the least customer friendly strategies. Angering most of their customers never to buy them again.
                  Why will Samsung & support their current phones rather than releasing many similar phones with with similar hardware specs.
