We've been around Samsung long enough to remember a time when its approach to system updates was Android depressing. He was often the last of all OEMs with this system to release major software updates for them. But now everything has changed, and Samsung is the clear number one.
But the previous situation did not cast a very good light on the company. It begged the question why someone like Samsung, with incredible talent and resources at their disposal, couldn't get things in order when it came to updates. Yes, there were certain areas where Samsung couldn't do much, but it was clear that there was considerable room for improvement in its own processes.

Samsung is on top
However, in the last few years, the company has shown an incredible determination to overcome these problems. Gone are the days when users around the world had to wait inordinately long for updates.

We have seen another example now. Samsung has already released a security patch for August 2022 for the series Galaxy S22, Galaxy S21 to Galaxy S20. And of course we still have July here. So far no other OEM manufacturer Androidu didn't. After all, we've seen this really impressive pace from the company a few times in the past few years, so it's not really surprising anymore.
It's quite ironic that Samsung can outrun even Google, a company that Android develops. What follows from this? Simply put, if you value the security of your mobile device, you should probably buy a Samsung phone. No other OEM will be as active. But that's not the only way Samsung differentiates itself from the rest of the pack Android world.

The vast majority of smartphone manufacturers with the system Android only provides biannual operating system updates. Even the current Google Pixel phones don't have that level of software support, as Google guarantees them three years of system updates.

If you don't change your phone every two years, then Samsung will give you the longest lifespan, taking into account the added functions in connection with new systems. Even if, for example, the visuals are getting old, in terms of options, they still keep up with current machines (the issue of performance is a different matter). At the same time, Samsung's range of smartphones is diverse enough to cover the needs of every type of customer. Although they appear to be phones Galaxy slightly more expensive than the competition, at least that little bit of extra money will make a big difference when it comes to software support.

This is especially evident when comparing Samsung's phones with its Chinese competitors. They have been trying to eliminate its dominant position for years and are not succeeding in any significant way, even with their aggressive pricing strategy. The South Korean giant has used its superior insight into consumers to stay ahead of relentless competition. Samsung has simply become a shining example of how an OEM should go about providing software support in such a way that there is no doubt as to who is the current king of system updates Android.
