[Обзор]

• Samsung has promised seven years of Android and security updates for the Galaxy S24 series.
• The extended update policy only applies to the new flagships as of now.
• Samsung hasn’t confirmed if all Galaxy flagships will get the same treatment in the future.

Samsung has good news for Galaxy S24 series buyers. All three phones in the lineup now come with a promise of seven years of Android and security updates, matching Google’s update policy for the Pixel 8 series.

Until Google’s latest flagships came along last October, Samsung was the leader in smartphone software updates with four years of Android and five years of security updates for all recent flagships as well as select mid-range phones. The four-year update policy still applies to older Samsung devices like the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy Z Fold 5, Z Flip 5, and others. Unfortunately, Samsung is not extending its new seven-year update pledge to older phones just yet.
