Indeed the smartphone manufacturer is now only bested by Google when it comes to updated. And now, the Korean manufacturer is taking things to another level as it aims to surpass even the likes of Google by extending the duration of its security updates for several of its phones.
Indeed in a press statement which was released very recently, Samsung proceeded on to reveal that the company will actually be extending updates for several of its Galaxy smartphones launched ever since 2019. These phones, which also include models from the Tab series, will now be on the receiving end of at least four years of security updates.
The Korean company has gone on to claim that it has had to work with its OS as well as chipset partners as well as more than 200 carriers so aa to ensure that it Galaxy devices receive timely patches.
