With the way Google/Android 10 is utilising them, they are new to everybody. And app developers can now readily develop apps to use the features. Desktop mode especially. Forget Samsung dex, na child's play.

I think it's Android 10 instead of Android Q.
The only reason for which I will update my device is if it becomes buggy.
Otherwise, the new features and placement may make it slower to use my device as some things would be out of place. It's even worse of a feature you enjoy is removed because of security reasons.
I know it's Android 10 and if you read the last sentence you'll see it. It's just a typo

It's obvious this write-up is sponsored by the crappy phone company known for selling phones with outdated MTK chipsets that never bothers to update their phones. How mediocre can that be


Keep doing this and you'll fast loose the little fan base you've acquired

That's how xiaomi sent me updates for Android 8, immediately I updated that was the end of the device. The phone became automatically useless, takes more than 3hours to boot up, another 2hours to show homepage. Even the owner of Android knows it's shitty, u can use an iPhone for 3years without issues but any Android phone that gets u through 6months u are lucky to have that

Oga, is it not too early in the morning to start trying to deceive people? And it was still you that made the comment in the screenshot just 2 months ago undecided

The update from 4.4 KitKat to 5.0 lollipop, for me was very satisfying, after then no real change.

and here they come, oga efcc, oga Invictus digger, oga old comments searchers association chairman etc. Look that comment I made was a day after updating, the device first seem to be working right and I was like wow, next day like this the madness begun and got so worse. I was advised to get a memory card which I did and it was still as worse. Anyways what's the need for explaining, already explained my experience, who like him believe. Updates are for stronger phones like iPhones not crappy Chinese phones

I used over 1.4gb to update my phone last week and I was expect some new features after the update.

Walahi.. nothing changed! The only thing that changed was my DATA balance.

As in eh. When this happened to me, after staying awake to use night data, i was just flipping through the phone looking like someone that had been scammed. undecided

Stop contradicting yourself.

The screenshot is there to expose you for lying, no amount of grammar or editing your previous comment can change that fact.

Oga that one is Xiaomi's fault, factory reset your phone and it should work properly again.

Also that iPhone comment is B.S, iPhones have their own issues and they slow down with updates too.

Re: Have Android Updates Become Useless? by omoadeleye(m): 7:02am On Aug 26, 2019
Well updates are okay, if you are not finding anything new in your android update, just know that at some point your android performance will be deteriorating, this updates are meant to increase the performance of your phone, and efficient performance is one of the things we always buy new device, so updates is very important, you can ever imagine why Tecno phones always get to lag at some point, it's because they are always starved with update hence the lagging experience, but by the time you move to other devices like Xiaomi, you will always see that for even 2 years your phone won't even lag, cause Xiaomi are always busy ditching out updates so that you can always enjoy your phone, so always try to ask questions from people who has brain more than you before embarrassing yourself with unnecessary rant on social medias... Thanks

Noobs will say updates are useless but doesn't know what goes on in the OS. Your phone is open to new vulnerabilities everyday, the updates are to curb that whilst ensuring that your device runs smoothly

When you update to a new version, it's advisable you clean your phone, transfer all your files and format it.
