Time is running too slow, so my watch does faster times. π€¦
Wait, really? They have not had that feature until now? That's fucking ridiculous. Considering I've had it on my $200 one plus for three years and my $200 Motorola's for years before that.
Samsung was one of the few Android OEMs that didn't adopt A/B updates (well, until now).
I want to say I had the AB partitioning unlike the Google Pixel 1 or Nexus 6P or something like that. It's been a long time ago and I don't even want to think of not having them anymore. The fact that they waited this long to adopt it just seems kind of dumb.
Shorter update times.
The update can be faster. The time can be shorter. The time cannot be faster.
Seconds are now 1/4 of a second thanks to the new update method
Time can be faster. Wasn't that Einstein's whole thing?
Well, if Samsung is updating your phone under extreme gravity or acceleration, then sure.
I don't know what Samsung has planned.

Too many cameras. Send it back.
