Note 8 Oreo Update

So has it been running smooth for everyone? I hope it doesn't mess my phone up since it runs outstanding after 6 months! If it borks then it would give me a reason to buy the S9 Plus even though I want to wait for the Note 9.
so far so good, had a little wonky start but is settling in and running pretty smooth with no noticeable issues. I've had it on Sprint since March 29 and did a full wipe to get a fresh start.

I think it's just like with PCs when upgrading to a new Windows OS. Always works best when it's originally installed on the device from the factory.

I have not noticed any difference in speed or smoothness. My Note ran perfectly before the update and it continues to run perfectly after.

Just the cycle of life :)

Gotta be honest, I can't tell the difference between my AT&T n8 and my unlocked n8. I guess it's all behind the scenes. They'll both still nasty-fast-nasty, and of course, that's a good thing. So, that leaves me feeling like I don't care if/when my unlocked n8 gets the new firmware. I know there's no stuff in their somewhere but it feels and looks the same.

You're not missing anything. Really. The security patches? Yeah they're not irrelevant but until you get 6 or months behind the latest I'd think you're okay unless you have risky habits.
 
has anyone else who uses textra noticed that the "+" feature doesn't allow you to choose photos from the gallery? it's like the original issue I had with textra when the note 8 first came out
