For those who don&#8217;t know what &#8220;32+2&#8221; means, it means\u00a0the variant which has 32 GB ROM (internal storage) and 3 GB RAM. Since this seems to be a variants-specific update, not all Note 4s might be eligible for this update. Whether or not this will be the case, only time will tell.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to Tecno and Itel, Infinix has been quite consistent in releasing updates and should be the brand (of the three) to patronize if you hope to get updates. Tecno&#8217;s only 2 version updates (Tecno C8 and Phantom 6 Plus) were a disaster and they never released similar updates for any other model contrary to what they promised. They&#8217;re yet to even get bug fix updates right like you would see on the recent Tecno CX update.<\/p>\n<p>Itel -to the best of my knowledge- has never released a version update but i&#8217;m optimistic that this might change with Android Oreo (Go Edition) they plan to feature on some of their future lineups.<\/p>\n<h3>How to prepare for this OTA update<\/h3>\n<p>If you own one these models then here are some tips to help you prepare for this update:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Take note of your phone&#8217;s present <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hovatek.com\/blog\/your-phone-model-is-nothing-build-number-is-everything\/\">Build Number<\/a> as this tells you which variant yours is in case it gets bricked during or after updating.
