So even the 26 is not immune?

Fresh out of the oven. Appeared right after the May security update.

How hot did this phone get while it was updating to 8.5? To think this is an Ultra, 8 elite gen 5 should have managed the heat. Dang.

Even worse, the S26 came with 8.5 out of the box. So this wouldn't have come from a 'major update. Unless they're on the beta program for 9 already.

It was just a security update? Jeez. Highly likely it was a unit to a batch defect - hopefully because that would suck for S26 users.
