Normally, this results in a deterioration in performance - but there could perhaps be exceptions.

I suppose I'll have to read about it. I have not noticed any reports of Boyue devices upgrading to Android 8 being slower. In fact I checked the Boyue update to 8.1 thread and there are many reports of devices updated to 8.1 being faster than 6, and certainly none of it being slowing. In fact someone received a new Likebook Mars with 8.1 pre-installed, and reports it being very fast. I think the Mars is an older generation than the Nova and Poke Pro, so I expect them to run 8.1, and perhaps 9 too, without any slowing of operation.
