Mate if you go by when manufactures stop selling devices, there’ll be android devices with _negative_ support years.

And that’s 6 years _so far_.





That's the fair way to look at it though. You don't expect to get three months' less warranty when you buy a model three months after release. It's also how the EU software upgrade requirements work: 5 years (or more) after they discontinue the model and stop producing it

And it’s a fair point for me to make that if you want to look at it that way, you need to be consistent about looking at it that way across all offerings.
