Exactly. This is the only thing I hate in android.
I am just about to upgrade IA hopefully will be shifting to 6S Plus or Note 5.

This is NOT Android fault.

Get a Nexus phone, Android One phone or any other that is on fast track of updates. They are first ones to receive latest updates and they stay updated for ~2 years.

Poor G900F is still stuck on 5.0, shame on Samsung!. Even budget phones are doing well in updates than Samsung.

Yes, this is what people need to know. Not all Android phones receive updates at the same time. If someone wants fast updates, he should go for a Nexus phone.
I've got some friends who ask me when their Samsungs, Qmobiles or Huawei etc are receiving Marshmallow when they are still running Jellybean ._.

It's really hard to explain this stuff to someone then and they end up blaming Android for it.

What about lag situation?

Surprisingly it's really good. No lag at all right now. Initially just for a few minutes it was stuttering really bad while it was updating apps etc.

Handles Lollipop quite well, unlike most other phones.

Apart from Motorola and Google, all other android oems are like this.
Google should take strict action.
Let alone m8,g4 and s5, their newer counterparts are still stuck on lollipop.

G4 is actullay getting Marshmallow in South Korea right now. In fact last year G3 was one of the first phones to get Lollipop, even before some Nexus phones.

What about rest of the world?
I am talking globally. I hate how these android oems divide updates regionally. Like what's the fault of countries like Pakistan etc.
I have to give it to Apple here. All of the iphones are updated at the same time.

That's true. And they still are updating their older devices such the 4S, unlike Nexus phones. It's a fact, no one can match the update frequency and support of Apple.

Guy's just debloated grand prime up to extreme level and now it purely feels like a nexus phone, no hanging no bla bla and smooth performance

The messaging app has a white theme as default. Can it be changed?

UI is the same samsung, s coz can't change that and no support of developers, beside that used nova launcher, using greenify, L seeder script , roehsoft-ram-expander, below is the ram usage when every app is closed and the only launcher in phone and battery stats

Well yes default and only colour, but you have different coloring schemes for different threads, and battery is enough,
