You have 0 knowledge about the android yet bashing it instead of learning about what and how to do.
I can't believe people like you still exist in 2018 when you can literally research anything.
What a joke.

So glad I decided to get an iPhone instead of Android when I switched from Windows. Android is a joke of an OS. It can't even achieve Windows phone level of features, design, user experience, updates, etc., but hey! It's got an impressive collection of fart generators and wallpaper changers in the Play store. Neat!

Plus, compared to Apple, Android doesn't just run on one OEM but many OEMs across various product ranges (flagship, mid-range, low-end), so expect that devices will not get updates especially the low-end entry level smartphones.

This means that Android devices will inevitably have a lower OS distribution update percentage since they have so many more devices in the world.
And by knowing the fact that a lot of Android devices are low end and wont support future updates, it is understandable that Apple devices are more updated than others OS devices... it is not pathetic

I tested the latest iPhone in the store and bunch of other phones too, still didn't like iOS and did not get an iPhone.

Mate 9 got Treble too and Oreo was available back in 2017, about 4 months from now the OTA hit my device. I'm also on March security patch. Damn shame many others haven't gotten Oreo yet or never will.

There's Pixel which replaces Nexus, and Nexus which is replaced by AndroidOne, and the old AndroidOne being replaced by AndroidGO.
Yet, these devices are usually poorly designed, mediocre specced, unmarketed, and overpriced.
No wonder people choose to get a Samsung (Galaxy S, Note, Galaxy J), Oppo (R, A), Huawei (Mate, P, Honor) or Xiaomi (Mi, Redmi, Note) series of phones instead.

Remember that manufacturers now do "clever" firmware, like Oneplus who took android 7 HAL and some parts of android 8 UI and called this 8.0 update. Number inflation will be rampant soon.
