Some users, however, still claim that they have yet to receive an update. In one of our reports, one user said that, “Yes, still no update for Wifi version here in the U.S.” Another user vented his frustration writing, “Lies. Nothing of the sort is available here in the USA...Samsung is ridiculously frustrating...Apple doesn't do this to ITS customers....every day I consider switching to Apple products. :-(“

One user from Mexico and another from Italy and the U.K. have also said that they have yet to receive an update to Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean for their Note 8.
