Geric.770, 09 May 2018Even my phone is still stuck on Nougat 7.0! Good thing Huawei responded my feedback about maj... moreHuawei seems to be doing good so far, updating their last 2 flagships (Mate 10 and P10) plus some older flagships like the Mate 9 and P9 (my P10 already has Oreo since around March + 1 Security patch in April). Sony also is do well in doing OS updates. Can't say the same thing for brands like Samsung and LG.

And as always, the most common way to get the latest Android version is to throw away your mobile and buy a new one, producing lots of electronic waste. I'm fed up with this.

Good thing Huawei responded my feedback about major updates and said that my Y7 Prime will be updated to Oreo before ending 2018.
