MS, 30 Oct 2019Then for how any years more S8 will receive security updates?There has been no end date announced but it should be some time yet based on previous evidence e.g Galaxy S7 still receives updates and even S6 has received at least one update this year (4 years after Launch)
Sorry I cannot be more specific but that's just the way it is.....nothing is set in stone but Samsung do tend to go beyond what is required of them. Now, whether that is good enough or long enough. Well that's a whole different thing.
In short - dont know, it's a bit of a mystery :)

jamal, 28 Oct 2019pls i dnt no hw to insert de 2nd sim at de sd card placeOn a dual SIM S8 you are unable to install two SIM cards AND a MicroSD card at the same time. You can either install two SIM cards or One SIM card and One microSD card.
There were ways that you could get around this ( glue part of SIM to microSD card or buy an adapter) BUT please note and see the posts below from 'Khavi001' because apparently you are not able to do this anymore since the PIE update. I stand to be corrected on this if anyone has successfully been able to do so.

MS, 26 Oct 2019Android 10?No. That's it! PIE was the last. S8 launched with nougat and received Oreo and PIE.
Only security updates from now on which will move from monthly to quarterly eventually.

I've resolved my S8 battery drain on my 1 year old S8. Battery was getting worse and worse with each update or so it seemed.
Android System and so on were draining a LOT. I had about 2-3h SoT. NOTHING helped. Factory reset, disabling apps, greenify, betterbatterstats, GSAM, etc nothing.
Accubattery stated my battery's health was around 94%. Despite this fact, i went ahead and had the battery replaced.
I have ~5h SoT now
