The Galaxy S5 was much better for monthly patches than the Galaxy S6.
I thought that, just like the S5 after receiving the Marshmallow, the S6 after receiving the Nougat would receive the patches more regularly, but it seems that’s not quite so.
I got the october update for my S6 today ! G920F XEF
Ridiculous… S6 Edge updates earlier than S8+…
But tmobile Note 8 still on August
When it will be for S6?

Just wait till you get the update, they already released October’s patches for your device, or maybe if you don’t like waiting you can try and update through Smart Switch
