I've been using the Pixel 4a since it came out and it's been rock solid. I'll probably go for the Pixel 8 Pro because of the telephoto camera, so very happy it'll be supported longer. Could Google mandate longer updates from OEMs in general? Or is that not feasible?
- izacus 3y agoOEMs have significantly prolonged their update cycles too - both Samsung and Xiaomi are now promising 5 year support for their top models.
- nomel 3y ago> OEMs That's OEM, singular, for many markets, including the US, where Xiaomi isn't sold.
- fomine3 3y agoUS is the exceptional market that not welcoming Chinese devices. Xiaomi is sold on other developed/developing countries.
- izacus 3y agoThe fact that you let carriers destroy free market in US kinda isn't an issue with Android.
- nomel 3y agoI don't understand. I can get an iPhone on any carrier, and get long term updates. What does this have to do with carriers? (genuine question)
