"And what apps are you running on android 7 phones which the latest android can't?"

I've never said I'm doing anything like that, because I don't, so don't know where that question even came from. Basically everything works on Android 7, except Google Wallet, Banking apps and YouTube, but they are just collection pieces.

      I've had no problems with the one ui 7 since I got it a couple of days ago. I have a s24 ultra. I actually like the update.

I'm using 1 at a time out of 4, and those would be the Magic4 Pro (Android 15), vivo X Note (Android 15), Infinix Zero Ultra (Android 13), or the Zero 30 (Android 13).

        The rest are on display, but are charged and connected to WI-FI every month to see if they would still be usable and they would be. The only issue with Android 7 is that it just went unsupported so YouTube doesn't work, but other important apps do.

          DarlingYext, 12 hours agoI have plenty of other phones, many stuck on Android 7, and... moreAnd are you using all of them or just 2 android phones with the latest Android 15. Of course you're saying nothing wrong with all of them because those phones that are still on Android Nougat are just being on display or on a drawer. Not gonna be surprised if you're aren't even switching.

            Very disappointed

              Software updates aren't important to me, but I'm also not buying phones that are sold with the promise of long support.

                  I wont set my s24 on fire just yet
                  Having said that, yeah samsung needs to get their sh#t together and next year bring some tangible hardware upgrades to the 26 series and definitely need to work of their communication, one ui 7 may be the breaker to wherever or not i stay on the Sammy train when my contract ends at the end of year

                    Anonymous, 14 hours agoCorrect, sounds like the rollout will resume within days if... moreIt is legit, I already have the S25 plus and One UI 7 completely transforms the look of the phone. Most people agree that this is the biggest Samsung update since they moved away from TouchWiz. This is the reason so many people are frustrated, as technically this should have been released at the beginning of the year. Samsung really dropped the ball, so much so, that I was almost prepared to upgrade my S24 to the S25, especially since its a free upgrade through my carrier. The only thing that stopped me from upgrading is that I really love my S24 and I have too many things to transfer over if I switch devices. I hate having to log into all my apps again after getting a new phone, its a pain in the rear.

I'll always be a Samsung fan, but they need to step their game up, or hire better engineers.

And for the folks that have it already the vast majority has been very positive
                        im back on board an no longer thinking about binning my s24.. yet.

                          fff, 16 hours agohow is the ui?Customisable and fluid, I like it, no issues no ads, nothing wrong with it.
