Maybe I'm not looking in the right place but Samsung doesn't make it very clear that their budget phones only get 2 OS upgrades.

        Only Galaxy A42 phones with Android 11 pre-installed (for countries launching in 2021) can receive the Android 13 update

The only thing this Samsung rep is interested in is selling you another phone so they can get another commission for their next meal ticket.

If that's the case foe the international version of the a42 5g then Samsung should just come out and say so instead of lying to people by telling them A series models get 3 OS updates and 4 years of security updates when clearly they don't.

I'm pretty sure all variants of the a42 5g use the snapdragon 750g SoC so chances are this Samsung representative has no idea what they're talking about. If my galaxy tab a7 lite with it's helio p22t SoC( which is miles weaker than the a42) then I don't understand how "my Galaxy A42 5G could not keep up with this latest software update"

And this was their some what stock copy and paste response...

                                        Thank you for patiently waiting, Sarah. As per checking here in my end the update releases by batches. I understand Sarah, that you want your device to be updated in the latest software update. However, the latest software demands high processing capabilities for its installed processor. And at the moment, the processor installed within your Galaxy A42 5G could not keep up with this latest software update. Thus, the reason why, the current running software version is the most compatible with the said device. How about this, will you allow me to create a Samsung case for you? So, that I can check other options available aside from forcing an update of the software.
