20 December 2022
Also, Color OS 13 was the biggest and fastest rollout in the history of the custom skin, reaching 33 models and many users in the four months since launch.

they can promise all they want, didn't mean it actually happens. they never offered any updates in the UK for the Reno 2 I had. I only got updates by using a VPN and connecting to different countries

    anonimouse, 20 Dec 2022Glares at Motorola with their one update for the g100Tbf that's exactly what they mentioned.

      Michy, 20 Dec 2022That's including people who are going to buy a Find X5... morenope policy change starts with Find X6! Find X5 is a 2022 phone so it won't get prolonged support.

          Ace9078, 20 Dec 2022Still waiting in the UK for the OS13 on the x3 proI got android 12 for my Reno 6 much earlier by setting a VPN to the Netherlands and going to software update rather than waiting for the UK to get the rollout. So far that’s not working for android 13.

            Oppo is quickly becoming one of my favourite Android vendors and I've enjoyed their latest software more than OneUI. Excited to see the X6 series.

                  Oppo has spoken about "colorOS" and not Android versions.

                  Are the same? Well, time will tell...

                    Michy, 20 Dec 2022That's including people who are going to buy a Find X5... moreThe press release only says from 2023, which I assume means phones released in 2023. OnePlus specifically said that the OnePlus 11 will be the first to get 4 OS update.

                      Daemon Targaryen, 20 Dec 2022Google isn't embarrassingly behind. Google's 3... moreTo be fair, if Google works out the kinks with Tensor (my wife's Pixel 7 Pro is actually doing well so I guess she got lucky), they might be able to offer even LONGER support seeing as they are in control of the architecture.

                      Imagine later Google implementing 4/5 OS updates with 7 years of security patches. Snapdragon might not allow that to happen.

                        It's interesting, if they can keep it. We live in a society where a lot of promises were made, but not kept. Generic kernel image and Linux kernel 5 should make easier to give more regular and continuing updates, if they can keep the promise.

                                        Where are you pathetic and shameless Google sticking with 3 updates, now don't be a freaking coward and offer pixel owners 4 OS updates.
