They're THE company who's decided that this is how android should work. And you want to congratulate the buy giving them money? How about funding initiatives like eelo.io instead? Take android away from the rotten Google. #DeleteGoogle

                              The A5 2017 getting Oreo is good news. I was debating whether to get this phone or the Nokia 6 2018. They are going to be similarly priced now and on the same version of Android. Which would you get?

                                In names, numbers it's an upgrade, but visually it's all in mind. Rest is same! A change from top to bottom or here and there! Gone are days when technology was fast, now its insignificant change is new version! Enough is Enough! Maybe quarterly would be Fine!
