Comment on Microsoft cuts ties with the Surface Duo after just 2 Android version updates
Desistance@lemmy.world 1 year agoSamsung is the largest Android OEM in the West and they give 4 years of updates. Google does 3 major upgrades and 5 years of security patches. There’s no reason why a multibillion dollar legacy software giant can’t do the same.

Google only used to do 3 years until the Pixel 6 in 2021.
The whole Android ecosystem is a complete mess. The fact that you need to rely on the device manufacturer for your updates is a nonsense idea.

IOS isn’t that much different. You still rely on Apple for updates.
