Trump Fan 1980, 03 Aug 2017 Is it just me, or do some companies not care about having ... moreLatest version always comes out every few months. Who have the time for that.Nougat alone have 4 updates version which includes 7.0, 7.1, 7.1.1, 7.1.2 & next week 8.0. Manufacturer have a lot of time in their hand to tweak new version every few months dont they? -_- As if they got nothing better to do in their life. And customers too. Why would we care to update our phone android version every few months? Such a hassle to do so.

    Is it just me, or do some companies not care about having the latest Android version on their products?

      If anyone with this phone updates to 7.1.1 your phone is going to be useless because at that point you will not have any storage

        what did you thought huh?
        biggest phone company that rather pay for somebody else patents rather than being innovative.
        my first smartphone ever was zte vivacity and until now id say it was better thanmy old s3...
        keep up the good work ZTE.
        peace

          Of course ZTE got there before Samsung, the UI lags on the S8 required a lot of work. Don't tell me the lags wasn't deliberate. ;)

            Forget 7.1.1 its useless just work on 8.0

              With O around the corner, anyone working on 7.x builds right now is wasting time and resources.
