      Heh, they get 4 years OS (5 total) but the thing is after the new device generation is released, the previous year immediately falls behind in terms of update speed and overall optimization.

      Nah. On basically all other OEMs once your phone isn’t the latest and greatest anymore it falls behind in terms of updates, even if it does get updated. The same update may take longer to arrive, maybe a week, maybe a month, who knows? Meanwhile on Pixels and iPhones everybody gets updated on the same day.

        I don’t think that’s the case these days to be honest. Samsung’s good with updates.
