It all has to do with sandwiches.

All I'm hearing is excuses: If the devs can't optimise the software in peak smartphone era when the advancements YoY are minuscule, it's their fault, not the hardware's fault.

    The thing is, that phone technology is near pinnacle anyway. I am using almost 4 years old Huawei P30 Pro and I don't feel like upgrading. Anyone having gen3 and above has no need to upgrade ever. Unless they do something with batteries.

      It's not about holding on to a phone for 7 years, it's about selling them in 2-3 years and not losing so much value because it loses software support in a year.
