DeepIn2U, 27 Jan 2025The 2016 iPhone SE got a Security Update with the latest Sa... moreSounds like you have no clue what you're talking about.
Unlike macOS, Safari on iOS follows the iOS version. Meaning only the latest iOS has the latest version of Safari. The latest version of Safari is Safari 18, available on iOS18 and iPadOS18. If you have devices that don't support iOS18, then you're stuck with the last Safari version on your device. Apple might release security patches related to that iOS, but you are not on the latest version of Safari, period.
This is different than macOS, where previous version (eg Sonoma) still gets Safari 18.
Now let's compare to Android. Due to Google doing their homework in compartmentalizing the various components of Android, the browser and webview can be updated independently of the OS. So even devices running Android 12 can still get the latest Chrome and webview.

We're seeing Apple's mobile is fragmentation for the first time here amd is due to software support limited by hardware restriction that they screwed up with for a long time! Limited ram relying on storage to apps minimal ram!!!

potato4k, 26 Jan 2025So you’re pointing out a late update but don’t even know wh... more haven't seen another manufacturer that deafens everyone's ears with its 7 years of software support, and can't release the new Android version for at least 3 months for last year's phone. Or maybe it will just skip to A16? And if it skips A15, will that add 1 year to the promised 7 or...?

Meanwhile, I have yet seen any Chinese OEMs that have a feature as smart as Samsung’s routines or Dex. Even compared to the current OneUI, other Android phones feel like expensive dumb phones.

potato4k, 26 Jan 2025What few tu res of Android 15 that is a must have for you?The best feature is that Samsung promised 7 years of support, and now they can't release it for 3 months, while everyone else is. So when their fans are messing with other companies, it's a good idea to look in their own shoes first.

Anonymous, 25 Jan 2025I don't know what you mean by "even Apple." ... moreOh no, you didn't understand me. That's exactly what I'm saying. Samsung is trying to copy Apple in every way, even in the years of support. But while Apple is actually doing it, Samsung is only on paper. Since all Android device manufacturers have been using Android 15 for 3 months, only Samsung can't still deliver A15 even on their last year's flagships. That's why I say that even Apple will release A15 before Samsung.

(to the writer of the article in response to your childishness ) it's dumb trying to compare what iOS can do & what android can't do. I stop doing that years ago & just appreciate android for what it is

Belsa, 25 Jan 2025That's right. Apple being Apple.That's so dumb if that's true. Google doesn't tie Google Chrome updates with OS updates.
