    And here i am with my phone still stuck on 14… I know it was a short time between 15 and 16, but still, catch up a little bit! Honestly, my only complaint about Android. I am not a fan of the pixel series either.

    Edit: Never mind! I decided to check for an update and found it was ready as of early May, but for some reason, my phone didn’t check. Installing now. Now to wait another 8 months for 16.

    Mhh, the System Update page for 16 on my Pixel is dedicated to AI bullshit, nothing actually useful… Nice

    They really need to take more time with major updates, what good is releasing a new version every year when it’s just new AI slop?

          I have both. One for work. Use both everyday. I genuinely don’t get this argument. iPhones don’t work better. In any single way (this new update exclude, idk about that yet)

      The one thing you’ll get to look forward to is any features Android is getting right now you’ll get in 5 years.

        For the low low price of supporting a sell out company that is willingly collaborating with the Trump regime, I’ll get Android 16.

        Loves me some Samsung, but am too disgusted with Google.

          Depending on what Samsung you get, you can flash it with another OS :)
