7 Things to Do Before Installing Your Galaxy S9 Update

Dig Into Feedback If You Need To

Your Galaxy S9's update might be small, but even the smallest maintenance updates can cause problems. This is why you'll want to be careful with every update that appears on your device. 

If you're having an excellent experience on your current Oreo build we highly recommend digging into feedback from those who have installed the new software. This feedback will alert you to potential benefits and problems. 

If most of the feedback is negative, it might be a good idea to take a rain check and hang back until Samsung or your carrier releases a new build. Again, we expect a steady stream of updates to emerge in the weeks ahead. 

There are a few places to check for feedback. We've put together a general guide to installing Galaxy S9 software updates and it's worth a look.

XDA-Developers' Galaxy S9 forums are another place to gather feedback about a particular update. You might also check your carrier forums. Forums like this one at Verizon are a great resource.
