In the gsmarena review it shows "5G" on the box, but the specs show it is LTE only?

It's a $100 phone, any proof where is your A14 got 4 years? The A14 5G isn't a $100 phone btw, it's $200.

Show me their official update policy on their entry level models. Xiaomi doesn't care about updates, and they left many older handsets with unpatched buggy MiUI.
And show me update policy of Tecno.
Meanwhile, even the lowly Galaxy A14 5G will get at least 2 Android upgrades and 4 years of security patches, officially stated by Samsung.

I bet Tecno is just doing the bare minimum to get GMS certification, which is 2 years of quarterly security patches. Actual OS upgrades are not mandatory by Google. There's no free lunch. For those looking for better software longevity, nothing beats Samsung.

Not-so-important fact: Even though XOS and HiOS have a very very similar looking UI, turns out I just noticed that their Control Center looks a bit different in terms of design (the icons are the same), where tbh I'm kinda prefer XOS' at this point.
Comparison:

OS, you mean how the UI looks or features that available on it? It's a pure user choice, considering some people like their phone has more features, while the rest likes something that looks more clean like Stock UI, so that can't be considered as pro or cons.
