They offer five years of security updates on the Pixel 6 and eight years of security updates for any chromebook from 2020. Nest and Chromecast devices also all get five plus years of updates. The minimum should be this across all android/chrome OS manufacturers though.
- tempnow987 5y agoIf I buy a pixel 6 today, I'll get updates for 2 years. On apple, iOS 15.2 is available for a phone that is 8 years old? Based on past experience, I expect if I bought an iOS device today - I'd have updated for at least 5 years. Apple was releasing updates for iOS 12 as recently as 2021. That's for phone back from 2013 (!).
- BakeInBeens 5y agoIf you buy a Pixel 6 today you get OS updates until October 2024 and security updates until October 2026 which is shown on Google support pages. Similar to if you were to buy an iOS device except you'd only have past experience to go off because they won't actually promise you anything.
