My S5 has been working perfectly since Marshmallow. I am hesitant to install any updates for fear of ruining a good thing. Any side affects to note from this update?

I don't feel like my phone was worse after the update, but I factory reset because it was time to clean house and start from scratch. That may be why my phone feels so much snappier now, but I genuinely believe the new OS made a lot of performance improvements. I'm not seeing much in the way of...
