            Google change the pace because user want new phone with new android for holidays season.
            January/Feb is not a feasible time to buy/upgrade

              The pace has changed, while samsung users are still waiting for Android 15. Too delayed.

                Anonymous, 5 hours agothey are rushing these android versions for not only reduci... moreThey could barely add anything besides AI bloat and that one can be done with third party apps.
                Imagine if the OS wasn't restricted like the good old days. XDA would ruin their business.

                  Anonymous, 5 hours agohey guys stop run iam here with android 10 lolSame here but Android 12. I tried out Oxygen OS 15. It is overloaded and confusing.

                    Pk, 5 hours agoSo from now on 5 os updates is actually 2.5y support .v goodNope. Google has repeatedly advertised it as 7 years of OS, security and feature drop updates, and their disclaimer only says that this 7 years starts from the moment the phone is available on the Pixel Store in the US. I've checked to make sure, and they don't count this as 7 updates, but rather updates over 7 years. There's no reason to believe that it's got anything to do with update amounts.

                      Darth Caesium, 4 hours agoNew report claims that OS updates for Pixel 6 series and Pi... moreGreat to hear that 💪

                        PatrickCzech, 5 hours agoAndroid 16 Develop preview Is avaible for Pixel 6 And newer... moreNew report claims that OS updates for Pixel 6 series and Pixel 7 series will be extended to 5 years.

And pushes people to buy a new 5G phone. And I think, that will make such an e-waste. But not as bad as in Australia. That is such an extreme.

                              they are rushing these android versions for not only reducing pixel phone update cycle but also makes 3rd party apps to move to newer android versions.It wont be unusual if whatsapp for example only supported on android 11 if we continue on this cycle.It will create mega ewaste after some time,just like what Australia did to 3G phones.

                                        DashF, 6 hours agoMy most favourite feature was when they locked android/data... moreNah, they won't lock the settings app, they will remove all the settings of the other apps and put a few of them into the central settings app like iOS. You will have to change camera resolution via settings app.
                                        I wouldn't be surprised if they did this.
