Samsung Will Now Provide Four Years of Annual Updates for Select Smartphones, One Year More Than Google
https://wccftech.com/samsung-providing-four-years-software-updates-for-select-models/
Samsung previously committed to rolling out software updates for three years, along with five years of security updates. These updates would be available for the company’s high-end list of smartphones, and now, you have a greater incentive of picking up a Samsung handset in the future because the Korean giant is increasing its commitment to four years. That makes it higher than the number of updates Google offers, which is three.
With this information posted by PhoneArena author Joshua Swingle on Twitter, it would make Samsung the most sought-after Android smartphone maker if that customer is looking for long-term software support. The shocking revelation about this information is the fact that Google has been left behind as the advertising giant provides only three years of software updates for its Pixel range, paired with five years of security updates.
