            Vegetaholic, 02 Feb 2018Do you realise how heavy customized is touchwizz and Samsun... more"heavily customised" - this is the sole reason why Samsungs lag/stutter/freeze or whatever term you want to call it. - that's why I really hope project treble brings visible improvements.

            They got so much money yet care less about the end user and can't even expand the software workforce division by hiring more developers/programmer so they can update phones every single damn month.

            Why? They're too busy trying to churn out more and more money producing more and more phones with so many damn models from A-Z like the A, Galaxy S, and Note line wasn't enough...
            Conclusively, if Samsung wasn't a greedy company but a trustworthy consumer-conscious-caring one, they would go out of their way, the extra mile to put all resources into drive to make sure the Note8 launched with Oreo from day 1 to match both model and software numbers to prove to loyal fans that they care.

              Alien , 02 Feb 2018And still - no Oreo.. Remind me again why do Sammy's phone... moreDo you realise how heavy customized is touchwizz and Samsung is making sure you not going to get buggy stuff, like other brand do with almost stock Android? You should be happy they taking their time to make sure you get your update bug free and as smooth as possible instead of whining

                  The advantage is the best hardware and most features all in one sexy package.

                    And still - no Oreo..
                    Remind me again why do Sammy's phones cost so much?
                    I mean where's the advantage?
                    For the prices they're asking, AT LEAST the entire S line should of had Oreo since last year.
                    I feel more pity for those owning the S7 line.
                    Again, why should I buy a Samsung instead of other brands that have had Oreo for months now?
                    For those so called features that most of us call bloatware and will disable and/or delete them the moment we put our hands on the phone?
                    This is the lamest excuse ever! If i pay 1000 euro on a phone, I expect interstellar travel from it! I want oreo update the next day Google releases it god dammit!
                    Even those china replika brands have it!
                    If I were a Sammy customer I would be so effing pissed right now..
