huh? My Samsung S20 is on the latest OS and security patches
- sithadmin 6y agoSo is mine. The point here is that it won't be 1-2 years from now when it gets abandoned just like every other Android device. Considering that the lifecycle of the average Ford is many years longer than that of any mobile device, this is clearly going to be problematic.
- EvilEy3 6y agoNo it won't. Samsung has 3 upgrades policy now. With security updates it is 4 years or more.
- thekyle 6y agoIsn't the Galaxy S20 basically a brand-new phone? It hasn't even been out for a year yet.
- maccard 6y agoMy current car is 3 years old and us the newest on the street. There are dozens of phones and Android devices the same age that haven't received updates.

- markdown 6y agoI'm going to own my truck for 25-30 years. Android devices are abandoned after 2.5-3 years.
- mdorazio 6y agoThe average car on the road is 6-7 years old and won't be junked until about year 15. Show me how well Android devices that old are supported.
- mike_d 6y ago> My Samsung S20 is on the latest OS and security patches The latest available from Samsung. It takes 60 days for updates to get down the pipe to OEMs.
