Err... The Nokia N series received frequent updates before Android ever came along. Blackberry constantly updated its OS.
Sure, some carriers restricted updates - but that's still a problem Android faces.
- Mediterraneo10 6y agoThe Nokia N900 got its last official update in November 2010, if I recall correctly. It had only been launched a year and a half before. Yes, there was then a community effort to improve some of the userspace, but the device was eternally stuck on a 2.6 kernel due to blobs. I loved my N900, but let's not pretend Nokia made their hardware future-proof.

- magikaram 6y agoAll the more reason to choose an unlocked phone over a carrier locked device.
- marcodiego 6y agoAn unlocked phone is as locked as a non-unlocked one if it depends on proprietary drivers of blobs.
