Windows Phones used mainly same/similiar hardware (there were not so many different models and different branches of Windows from different manufacturers)

        Manhurt, 16 Nov 2018No way you say it to Google. Say it to OEMs not Google.No.
        At this point Google bares as much responsibility. Heck, even they are struggling to keep their own devices updated....and many bugs are getting through.

        Fragmentation is an actual concern

          This is the same old story they said with Android O. Does it mean that some phones with Android O were actually launched without being treble compliant?

              Treble-compliant but without unlockable bootloader and Lazy AF OEM? Another BS from Google to android enthusiasts.

                Anonymous, 15 Nov 2018All phones launching after January 31 2019 should be launch... moreInteresting....
                Still, OEMs have their responsibility of updating their phones quickly and in a long period of time
                Treble or not, they should be delivering fast and frequent updates with little to no issues, if they are really committed into delivering the best experience

                  Wasnt' that supposed to be the case for Oreo already ?

                      Thats sounds very interesting but in case of Samsung its not possible.
                      Samsung was always going its own wrong path avoiding customers needs and researching and releasing things that nobody asked them for at the cost of having a lot more expensive devices.

                        Google also introduced Vulkan with nougat. Now after 3 years, almost 5 games are running on vulkan.

                              Aren't phones with Oreo out of the box already Trebled?

                                I don't think Google is committed with the updates. At least not now. Coz if it was then this would have been sorted out like yesterday!

                                      Ok, so everyone here remembers we've been told the same thing last year when Oreo was released.

                                        And you still have Manufacturers releasing phones with Oreo.
