vivo commits 3 years of software support for its X-series phones

Michail, 10 May 2021

Last week Oppo confirmed its plans to extend software support for the Find X-series to three years and now vivo is doing the same for its X-series. Models launched after July 2021 will be eligible for three major Android OS upgrades and security updates.

Featuring top of the line hardware, the X series flagship phones are built to last and we want to make sure that our customers get software support that lives up to their expectations.

We always innovate with the user in mind. With this pledge, we are making a promise to our customers that they will be able to enjoy a premium smartphone experience for an extended period and continue to benefit from the latest software features - Yujian Shi, SVP and CTO of vivo.

According to the press release vivo phones launched in the European, Australian and Indian markets are eligible for extended software support. Older X-series phones will still get regular security updates.
