I don't know why Samsung stopped the Oreo Update for the S8. I updated it as soon as it came out and have been using it for about almost a month. Everything is working fine except. 1. While sending images on what's app the app crashes unexpectedly. 2. Facebook takes a bit longer to open than it used to on the Nougat update.
Thats all I could notice. Other than that everything is fine. A little stutters while doing some heavy multitasking but hope that will be fixed in future updates.
Huge thanks to all the developers for providing some great software experience.
