It's e/OS that's getting regularly updated, right?

If you had never flashed a custom rom and stayed with Samsung's Android that came with the phone, would you still be receiving regular updates?

> can run most apps

Curious to know what apps haven't run on your phone?

yes it is /e/os getting updated but it is still android and I thought that most people here would be up for changing between the flavors rather than just sticking with the original.

I don't stay with the original OS on my PC why would I do the same with my phone. If my original PC OS stops getting updates I change to a newer one. I figured most here would be used to that.

Uber, that I can remember. Didn't like the micro g aspect, but I hear that may have changed. Also banking apps but I don't use those myself.
