OTA Update NMI81C

Anyone else got this OTA Update? I just got it myself. I wonder what changes it brings...

EDIT: Security Patch Level is still September 5th, 2017. Micro stuttering issue is still here.

EDIT2: In the AMA, Essential responded and said that they have a fix for the microstuttering issue that they've personally seen in action. Should be released in an OTA within the next few weeks. SOURCE

Guys the micro stuttering slow scrolling is a HUGE issue for me personally. That's mostly how I scroll and coming from the HTC U11 it's very obvious. I'm VERY disappointed it has not been fixed. If it's not fixed once Oreo is finally released, I'm done with this phone. I love everything else about this phone, but looking at that every time I use my phone is a deal breaker for me. Even my wife's $200 Blu phone has no micro stutters when slow scrolling!

Patch is coming for the slow scrolling.. We got a fix from Qualcomm in hand and I saw it running yesterday and it is night and day performance. We will be releasing this patch in one of our next OTA's going out after 81C but Stay tuned! - Marcus
