It's solid, no real issue at all... been on it quite a while (I was in the test group) and it has been rock solid, in fact, it's hard to remember running Nougat, haven't seen it since July.

 

Yes, just did the system update. Don't like the Oreo icons/icon look, and although evidently some phones support changing the icon look, it doesn't seem to be an option on the Moto g5+. Many icons are now smaller and inside white circles, and are therefore harder to read. And of course the text message icons have changed again, so have to get used to that. No other issues or problems so far.

 

Try Nova Launcher, or an alternative launcher of your choice... Most allow you to customize the icons or use "older" style ones.
