Hi Carolll thanks for this extensive explanation. I am still on nougat and struggling wether I should update or not. Therefore you post was helpful for me. My phone is about 8 months now and the battery life is really great like 7 hours with dark theme, many Samsung and Google apps disables and cpu limiter at medium.  hmmm. Still thinking.  One more question - can you compare your battery life with that from nougat ? Did it reduce fir you with oreo ? Any other issues like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS..?   thanks again Oliver ... View more
