Not as bad as most Samsung phones, I got no update at all to Samsung S4 and S4 mini and these were the last Samsungs I bought. I have Moto G4 now and a few weeks ago I got patches for last BT and WiFi KRACK attacks, better late then never I guess? My next phone will be Motorola too, it's bloat free, runs fast after 2 years, and now it will be easier to fix.
- xbmcuser 8y agoSamsung is now a lot better with security updates specially for S and note series. My S8+ got Sept 18 android security update in September. And I got my screen fixed at a Samsung repair shop at +15% of the wholesale price of the screen on AliExpress. They even replaced the battery under warranty.
