Apparently, my initial speculations were right, especially now that the final version will not roll out until April, allegedly. I guess people figured out that the S25 Ultra just wasn't worth the upgrade, and once one Ui finalized version rolled out, we weren't gonna be missing much. I've never seen the trade-in deals last this long.
It's no longer just about the stable version. As beta testers, we are still stuck on the January security patch, while others are already receiving the February update. At the very least, we need a new beta release that includes these critical security improvements. We don't want a poor experience, but it seems unfair that the stable version is delayed because Samsung couldn't allocate enough personnel to ensure timely updates. This situation clearly indicates that unless you purchase the new phone, you may no longer be a priority.
Furthermore, the "polished experience" you claim to offer is not being perceived. Why? Because leading up to the release of the S25 family, we received no information, and no one has addressed the updates we desperately need. It's frustrating to invest $1,400 in a phone that cannot even receive security patches on time.
Let's discuss the update experience and how unpolished it is, and see if we can get that fixed.
