Google introduced its new flagship phones, the Pixel 8 series, in recent months. One of the most important innovations announced with these devices was software support. The company stated that it would provide software update support (both security and operating system) to phones for 7 years and went ahead of other companies.
It was predicted that a similar move might come from Samsung. The company officially confirmed this at today’s Unpacked event.
