Samsung has the best software support policy in the system world Android. It promises four major OS updates for many of its flagship and high-end smartphones, which is more than even Google offers, despite being the company that develops the OS. When it comes to security, Samsung provides up to five years of security updates.
Unfortunately, only those devices released by the company since 2021 are included in this list, although previous devices are also included Galaxy still powerful and perfectly capable of running newer versions of the system Android and the One UI user interface. We are therefore mainly talking about the flagship models of the series Galaxy S20, which is even better, how Galaxy S10, which ends with Androidem 12 and the current 13th version will no longer be available.

Phones and tablets Galaxy released before 2021 are only eligible for three generations of OS updates, meaning that Android 13/One UI 5 will be their last big update, as it is in the series Galaxy S20. And it's a shame. Android 13 showed that the line Galaxy The S20 still has a lot of life left in it. Models Galaxy The S20, S20+ and S20 Ultra feature hardware that is far from outdated. Even the issues that plagued these phones with the botched Exynos 990 processor seem to have been fixed, which is probably the biggest reason why we can be disappointed that this machine will be out of date/obsolete in a year's time.

Although we can envy iPhone owners who Apple provides support iOS easily even over 6 years. He has a second tent Android the advantage that even if the device is no longer updated to the latest operating system, it will still handle the vast majority of applications from Google Play without any problems. That's the difference from iOS, when developers usually update their titles for the latest version of the system and for your older one iPhone is thus no longer usable. This artificially pressures you to buy a new phone, even if the old one still serves you well. In this way, it practically becomes only a device for making calls, writing SMS and surfing the web.

In this respect, however, Android a device with an older system can still serve well. Although it cannot enjoy the latest features, the outdated system has little effect on applications. This is also why comparing the adoption of new systems between Androidin the iOS pointless. Developers Android applications are trying to develop applications compatible with older systems, of which there are more than the latest ones, which is the exact opposite of the purpose of introducing iOS. Either way, it's just a shame that Samsung's older flagships won't get any updates in the future.

And why? Everyone is pushing for updates to be 10 years old... Does it work? So what? Search for menu items elsewhere and learn again? Even if Samsung finally arrived in 2022, it is possible to add an option to insert the date and time on the photo into the camera menu... How pathetic... And so it is with other things. I'm a Samsung user, I've had Samsungs from S4 to now, but there's almost no progress since S10! Now I have an S21 FE then. The S10 does not reach the ankles. Even if after the ankles, probably yes. They give a powerful chipset that after 20 minutes of playing is underclocked to at least S10 level. So what for? Well, you can play for 20 minutes.
