So Apple is already there, hopefully the other smartphone manufacturers will follow, even if that means cutting down on the amount of models they release every year.
- pjmlp 5y agoOn the early Android years I followed with interest what each Google IO brought. Nowadays I don't care. Android Java is still cherry picking whatever Google feels like, NDK offers enough for multimedia stuff and mobile Chrome brings enough updates for mobile Web, and most apps are anyway doable as Web sites. Most OS updates from last years seem just being updates for the sake of forcing everyone to update which APIs they are using on their apps anyway.
