Security and Software updates

[EyeAmYou]

So it's October and we are still on the August security patch 🤔 while the rest of the world is on the September patch and almost One UI 3.0...

I am triggered 😂

I have no Idea why are SA so far behind the rest of the world if it comes to phone updates.

[EyeAmYou]

I think it's getting the updates pushed through the various carriers that causes a further delay on top of the fact that the manufacturer also pushes them on a per region plan. So if you are on Vodacom for example, the updates will be pushed per batch number which also adds to the delay

true hey it's all about your batch number and its date is set for the security and software update
believe me I had my patience on this one

also isn't an update personalised to region?
so if there are security issues etc it would require research etc and if it is sold in za after other places or have less customers then maybe it follows a certain protocol to before updates are released ?
but then again
every coin has two sides and it could just be an inefficiency issue like with other aspects of their service.
