Worst beta experience ever

[PineappleGoesOnPizza]

That's it. That's the post. I ve done all the beta since they started those One UI beta years ago. I gotta say this has been the absolute worst experience and truly unacceptable. Worst thing is not even because of bugs of issues, for the most part I would say the actual builds have been pretty good. But how the heck we gonna have a beta going on for 4+ months. For a company as big as Samsung this is truly unacceptable and such a shame.

I have had Samsung galaxy S since the very first one, i remember getting the Avatar movie on an SD card when purchasing that phone and ve been upgraded my phone every year up to this point. Stick around through it all, even the Note 7 battery explosions. But this has truly been my worst experience with Samsung and gets me pretty angry.

It'll be ok. Yes this one has been a oddball to say the least but don't give up next year will be better!

It's not the beta testers that I have sympathy for as we all signed up for the program and have been able to enjoy pretty stable releases of the new software.

No, my sympathy is for millions of cistomers waiting on the release of the software.
The delays, in many regards, is unprecedented.

Most everyday people don't really care on what software they are. For example I offered both my wife and son with the same phones as mine to get in on the beta to get the software early. They just dont care. I've had some weeks where I was frustrated with the beta as well, but all in all its been stable and nor bad at all. Cheers. 👊🏻

I don't have any issues with all the beta's so far. Besides the first one which my battery seems to drain quicker than usual, but that was fixed shortly after.

Thats kinda my point. The beta have been pretty smooth since the beginning besides the battery drain on beta 1. That was in all the way in November/December. We are in April with no major updates just a few fixes here and there. So whats the hold up?
