    Vegetaholic, 07 Sep 2018They only update their rubbish MIUI skin, they don't update... moreThese false news are correct not false.
    I am speaking of my customers experience.
    And thats rubbish MUI is best UI ever created compared to Sony or Samsung its liek to compare fresh new Buggati versus Audi and BMW from a mid class.

          Looks like Apple supports their phones for longer than Samsung. I could be wrong but that's the impression. If my S6 would get the latest security patch level I would stay on it and move to Samsung S10. But looking at the new iphone release next week and will probably go that route. Unfortunate, but Samsung's lack of support is making my decision easier.

            Of that was true then we should believe all the apple users that claim that android even the best of minimal and stock devices or most expensive of them all are all nothing but lag machines full of glitches and viruses.

                  The only brand, THE ONLY, that's ever sold phones deliberately designed to lag is Apple. EVER.
                  That is an undeniable fact.
                  Try out a Samsung and you'll be amazed with how hassle free life can be. And don't come with the "I've owned all Samsung's ever!" response. If you had, you'd know the truth.

                        Misha.85, 06 Sep 2018I am really confused when someone mentions monthly updates ... moreIf you are receiving your Monthly updates every Quarter then that is down to your carrier, you can see this in my previous links.

                          The only good Samsung products (personally) are their memory cards and SSDs. As for their smartphones, I won't even touch one even with a six foot pole. I'd rather get a Sony, Google Pixel, Huawei or (shrugs) an iPhone over a Samsung smartphone.

                            You can see Monthly & Quarterly Samsung Security Update patches here:
                            (Models not listed (like my S6) still receive Critical Security Updates):
                            https://security.samsungmobile.com/workScope.smsb

                            Details of all Samsung, Security, Android & Firmware updates can be found on SamMobile (read 'Read This First'):

                            Check the Model number of your Samsung device by going into your 'Settings', scroll down to the bottom to select 'About Device', & you will see (In my case):

                            Model number SM-G920 (followed by a letter, &/ or number, it'll be an F, U, N, W, U1, or the number 0).

                            Type in your Model number or by the time you have typed (e.g. for the S9+):
                            SM-G965 you'll see it in the drop down menu.
                            Then select your Country & Carrier, to see what updates have been released & what's in the pipeline.

                              My 2015 S6 got the SMR June 2018 G920FXXU6ERF5 software/ security update and it's said to receive further Critical Security updates / patches, if I do then great I'll get another Samsung, either S9+, Note 9, S10+

                              But going forward & with the prices getting precariously high, I expect 3 major OS updates & 5 years of Security Support.
