I admit, I was wrong about Samsung. I thought they would release another beta of OneUI7 in April, but they released Alpha and stopped it almost immediately. 🤣 But we have a Beta for OneUI 8.
Interesting feature for owners of the S24 series - until the new year, they will be on a different version of the software every day. From A14 / OneUI6 to A16 / OneUI8. 🤣🤣🤣

At this point I think Samsung are doing their 6-7 year updates, but from 3 to 3 years, 2 of we get lucky.

One UI 7 is already very cool. Just improve speed and stability. Scrolling isn't that smooth on my s24 plus.

I see Oppo and Huawei ui Trying to be on par with IOS os

Xiaomi OS is worse because of the accumulation of ads to make profit from there, even I see annoying pop up ads from YouTube why should I see ads, a Do I have to pay a subscription fee for waste?

I understand why Samsung has to make a US CDMA version...
But why does Samsung have to make 5 different regional models of the same GSM phone?
1- Europe / Africa / Middle East / Oceania
2- Canada
3- Korea
4- China / Taiwan / Hong Kong
5- Latin America
Is it supposed to improve the band reception?
is it a greedy cost cutting measure?
Either way, it results in unnecessary fragmentation that slows down updates.
Xiaomi on the other hand makes *one* international GSM model that gets sold everywhere.

Samsung needs to eliminate device fragmentation issues so that future OneUI rollout is more seamless.
Best case scenario: All devices get the update on day one. (aka. how iOS does it)
It's about time Samsung gets rid of Carrier fragmentation, enterprise fragmentation, regional fragmentation, regional SOC fragmentation, etc.

Samsung has always been horrible at updates, which is why I went back to I phone after 6 years with Samsung. I don't want to wait months for the newest updates.
