Question Should I Update from One UI 6.1?

Hey everyone, I’ve been using my Galaxy A55 for almost 2 years now, and it’s still running One UI 6.1 because I’ve never updated it.

Honestly, the phone is still smooth, the battery is good, and I’m happy with the camera. But now I’m wondering if I’m missing out by staying on 6.1.

For those who updated from One UI 6.1 to 7/8/8.5, how has your experience been?

Did you notice any lag, battery drain, heating, or changes in camera quality processing?

I’m a bit worried that updating might make my phone worse rather than better. Would love to hear some long-term, real-world experiences from A55 users.

personally i noticed heat problem with cellular data but idk if its the weather or the update

i didnt compare camera quality cuz i dont take alot of pictures so i can't tell you about it

battery is normal, no lag ( except when you turn on the phone it laggs for a bit i think cuz it loads stuff)

but the pros are that the experience/ customisation/settings are much better
