    For all the uproar there has been about Samsung and security patches they really are coming out quicker now.
    I got the June one around mid July which I though was relatively early, then the July one came just a few days into August and today I got the 1st August one.
    Unlocked but through carrier Exynos version if that makes any difference

    Glad you're getting prompt updates. On T-Mobile, we just now got the July security patch.

    Looks like Samsung is improving in that area. Good to know!

    Not for Verizon users. I was getting monthly updates around the 25th or 26th of each month. That didn't happen in July. Still sitting on the June update.

    AT&T has been pretty good too. On the July security patch now and should expect August any day now.

    AT&T currently on July 1st patch. Faster than they came on my last phone so I'm not complaining.

    I used to complain about Sprint getting updates late. Verizon just as bad.

    Same here. Which is odd. Verizon's been pretty good at updating regularly.

    In my experience, they'll be "quick" for the first sixth months to a year and get slower as that OEM puts out new devices.

    I have the August update waiting on WiFi connectivity right now but I'm at work with no WiFi. AT&T is the carrier.

    I've had my T-Mobile Note8 for 11 months, and it's had 9 firmware versions (original plus 8 updates). That's not too bad, especially since they were prompt in patching the few severe vulnerabilities that popped up during that time.

    I agree the updates are faster now. I've had the August update for about 2weeks now. Unlocked phone, Nigeria.
