My Tab S7 rebooted overnight for some reason. I decided to go into the update section to see if it had done an update, it hadn't but I decided to check and was SHOCKED to see the JUNE update! That's right - the non-current model of Samsung TABLET has gotten an update as soon as it was released by Google...

Samsung occasionally beats Google on security updates. Although I am surprised it happened with a tablet.

Yeah, I know Samsung has dropped the updates several days in advance of Google because they do it on the 1st of the month sometimes while Google always schedules it to be the first Monday of the month. This means Samsung can be as much as a week ahead on phones.

Yes, my shock was that it's out for a tablet, and one that is 'last year's model' at that.
