Here's how long your Google Pixel phone will get software updates
Google offers great support for Pixels, but not all models enjoy the full timeline. With the release of the Pixel 8 in 2023, Google made a widely celebrated announcement.
AI Summary
Google announced that starting with the Pixel 8 released in 2023, all Pixel phones will receive seven years of software updates, covering both routine security patches and major OS upgrades. This commitment exceeds Samsung’s 2019 pledge, which offered three years of major updates for lower‑end Galaxy models and seven years only for select flagship devices. The extended support aims to address the historic rapid depreciation of Android phones caused by short software lifespans.
