Azu10157, 08 Jan 2025News flash: The iPhone XS/XR and 11 are still supported! Thats why the new 7 OS upgrades policy was the best decision made by Samsung, so the old phone user can use their phone with latest OS.

Search on internet. Very scary.. There are a lot of greenline cases occur on OnePlus phone, it became worldwide phenomena. Terrifying.
Also, the screen greenline warranty is not available in most countries. OnePlus did try the best to cover the news showed on Google result, but it was too late. Many ex-OnePlus user have been moving to Samsung since then.

Seeing the fact that many people still use their old Galaxy S9/S10 or iPhone 11/XR is enough proof to show that people still use their old phone.
Any normal person will not talk about smartphone to start conversation with a total stranger. I personally have one close friend (women) that still use her S20+ till today no greenline whatsoever and her husband uses iPhone XS + Galaxy Note 8. As a normal person, i actually dont care why they dont use latest flagship, but one thing for sure they still use it because it works.
Are you very upset or annoyed by the fact that nobody use their old chinese phone these days??

「most users tend to upgrade their phones within four years」
Meh, I'm only upgrade / buying new if my devices have faulty hardware, sensor, or any beyond repair malfunction. I think it would last 6-7 years for fair hardware update cycles.

I hope there won't be any issues with spare parts availability for devices with longer support.

They'll make you buy a new phone one way or another.

I would like to use my phone for much longer if it lasted longer. With today's super-fast components such as processors and USF 4 memory, there will be no more performance problems.
The main problem will be the battery, which firstly is not replaceable and secondly will then no longer be available and at some point will breathe its last and then can no longer be charged sufficiently and will only last a few hours.
Fortunately for most Europeans, from 2027 all devices with a battery will have to have a battery that can be easily replaced by the end user.
Why the shitty manufacturers don't do this now is simply down to greed. Do they always want to sell new phones?

Cyberchum, 08 Jan 2025Similar to what someone said, a good number of people will ... moretry asking these S9 and S20 users, they will definitely answer that they want to upgrade soon.. If they really wants to use another 3 years then I'm wrong.
I got a lot of S20 that are already green/pink line on the marketplace, people just don't want to use them anymore. Also Note10 and 20.

6 years of support is nothing but a gimmick.
I have OP7TPRO and i want to change my battery, but OnePlus service center says they don't give batteries for this device anymore as more than 5 years have passed.

Im on my 5th year of using my Samsung phone, and i can see myself using this phone for another 2 years maximum. My Tab will get another 2 OneUI upgrades, so i dont have the urge to buy new phone anytime soon.

rizki1, 08 Jan 20254 OS and 6 security is very good, no one will use OnePlus 8... moreSimilar to what someone said, a good number of people will definitely be using Galaxy S20 series this year. I can't say for the other 2 phones, however. This past year, I actually saw people still using Note 9 and S9.
Sorry, I'd chose being on the latest android version and have access to any feature it comes with OR the manufacturer added to its skin than stay on an older android version and miss those features.

4 years OS upgrades is fine, but 5 is enough.
Making 7 years OS upgrades can be led to motherboard issues and software laggy.
Atleast they should optimize about software upgrades.

Eh, if it were $600 - 700, sure. But they're charging $1000 for this, alongside 3rd rate components from BoE. Doesn't seem to worth it anymore when you're charging the same prices as Samsung and Apple.

What a deal breaker.
Any flagship phone with fewer than 7 OS upgrades must be priced under 500USD.

I have even seen people using older S10 or iPhone 11/Xs.
But zero people that still use chinese phone from 2019.
So 7 OS upgrades is a must in 2025.

I really love this phone and been procrastinating upgrading it because it's just perfect for my usage. Just wanted to know what the brand is up to..My next phone may be a iPhone 16 pro though
