How many Android updates do telephones get? This will depend on the producer, however sometimes we’re 2-3 years price of main OS updates, however for Google’s upcoming Pixel 6 smartphones, it appears that evidently Google may truly be giving the telephone as many as 4 main OS updates.

This is in line with a tweet by @_snoopytech_ who claims that for the Pixel 6, Google might be giving the handset 4 main OS updates. Presumably the telephone will launch with Android 12 on board, so what this implies is that the telephone will probably be supported as much as Android 16, which is definitely fairly cool and a good period of time for a handset to be supported.

Pixel 6 will get 4 OS Upgrades and 5 Years of Security Patches

A earlier report had apparently instructed that the telephone is also eligible for so long as 5 years of safety updates, so mix this with the 4 main OS updates and also you’ve bought your self a reasonably whole lot. Most folks change their telephones each 2-3 years, however should you’re the sort that holds onto their units for longer durations of time, it will be sure that your telephone will probably be supported even should you hold it for the subsequent 4-5 years.

That being mentioned, we guess we shouldn’t be too shocked. Google is behind each Android and its Pixel telephones so for them to help it longer than different producers is sensible, though hopefully this can be a conduct that different handset makers may undertake sooner or later as nicely.
