Verizon removed the Device Management options. Not sure why. I liked being able to force close apps and clear the clear in storage. Not happy about that.

It's under device maintenance now.

Google's latest android version usually never makes a difference. Its always the new Samsung experience features that shine. Everyone cries for the latest android letter just to realize it's not all that special.

No the latest Android USED to make a difference. There used to be huge changes with the latest version of Android. Now with Orero, the changes aren't as noticeable.

The only time I remember the latest android version is when android L ruined split screen on my s7 edge taking away the ability to resize in landscape mode.

I'm more interested in what things get screwed up by a new release!

The ui is more polished and I like the few additional customisation such as having a waiting notifications counter without a number in the badge. Just to name one of the new options.

I also like having the February 18 Security Patch.
