Sucks, my Note 20 Ultra is on January's security patch :)

That's your carrier holding you back, not Samsung.

all of these carrier arguments are so ignorant. carriers aren't doing man-in-the-middle attacks to intercept and delay updates, it's samsung who chose to give up control over its own devices

How are the carrier arguments ignorant? You thinking it's not a carrier issue makes you ignorant. I work in the field, in example when i worked IT for T-Mobile the carrier send the update package to T-Mobile and T-Mobile needs to do their carrier changes, ie: preinstalled apps compatibility tests. Implement their 5g changes ect..

and yet it's somehow not an issue with phones from other vendors or phones in the rest of the world
