I bought, very unaware at the time of the tots redic state of Android updates, a brand new, 9 months from release, Samsung Androd tablet.
The release of Android (5.x) was obsolute at initial product release.
There has been no update. There is no update path. The device is locked down to the point that I have been unable to root or re-ROM it.
I'd been under the impression at purchase time that 1) OEM updates would be provided, 2) rooting was possible, and 3) re-ROMing was an option. All three beliefs proved false.
Samsung are directly to blame.
But Google can fix this. Google haven't. Google aren't.

Google can pleasure itself.
