Software support is important, especially when you spend a fortune on a new smartphone and plan on holding on to it for a long time. Google’s Pixel lineup is currently among the best on the market in this area, but it hasn’t always been that way.
The company’s first phones only promised three years of software updates, but that number has gradually increased since. Now, the company’s latest phones come with seven years of software support, just like Samsung’s flagship series.
