Generic Samsung Galaxy firmware for s8+ - No updates??

Hey guys,
I have the unlocked sprint galaxy s8+ with the firmware/build number 955U1UEU1AQH3. I have a friend who has the same galaxy s8+ for At&t and it seems they have the 7.1.1 update. Also have a family member that has a note with 7.1.1 version on it and they have an unlocked verizon version. Why is the official unbranded samsung firmware not updated to any of the new software versions? Its confusing that there aren't any updates from 7.0 - 7.1.1. I am only seeming to get Android Security Patch Level updates, which is currently August 1, 2017.
Am I suppose to get the AT&T branded version OS in order to retrieve the latest real updates instead of patches? Is this a better option? If so, Id like to do so but keep my data without losing any of my apps and data, and also have a debloated version of the AT&T s8+ OS.
Please advise, thanks.
OP: Please move to Galaxy s8+ specific thread. Chose the wrong forum section
