A:AnswerHello! We appreciate your interest in our products. You won't be able to get updates for a USA device in India because updates for USA models are released by USA carriers which you don't have access to in India. Snapdragon is processor found in all US models while Exynos is the processor found in Non-USA models and one isn't necessarily better than the other. We hope this answers your question and helps you with your purchase decision. ^Rod
A:AnswerYes it will work on Cricket Wireless. I purchased an S8 and just upgraded from Alcatel Idol 3 with Cricket. You may need new sim card since S8 needs a nano sim, the Idol 3 used a micro sim which could not be trimmed to fit. Purchased a nano sim at Best Buy and they activated/transfered service to unlocked S8 for me before I left store. Really simple at Best Buy for me.
A:AnswerDo I get paid to answer questions for Best Buy?
The sticker on the back of the phone is a tiny little sign that reads "This phone does not one with professional customer support!"
