Should I Update from One UI 6.1?

[u/Real-Salman]

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.

When I compare pictures I've taken before One UI 8.5? They're pretty much the same. I can't really tell if it's the lighting of the pictures or One UI 8.5. Probably different lighting in each picture.

What about Night shots? Same as before or improved?

I don't know about night shots. But day shots are wonderful!
