Following in the footsteps of OnePlus and Samsung, OPPO also promised four major Android updates for “some of their high-end mobiles”. Since last year, the company’s policy was three such updates for the most selected mobiles.
OPPO was one of the first companies to have ready the version of its layer based on Android 13: ColorOS 13 was presented two days after the final version of Android 13 and since then it has already reached several models, according to OPPO , faster than ever . OPPO’s update promise is similar to that of OnePlus and will take effect in some models will be released next year
Four Android updates for OPPO
Until last year, OPPO offered two years of Android updates for most of its models, even those that cost more than a thousand dollars. This changed slightly with the revamped policy increasing security updates to three years for OPPO Find X3, although system updates remained the same.
Now yes, OPPO has increased a support increase that puts it in the top group against Samsung and OnePlus: four years of Android updates and five years of security updates. Not for everyone, but for “certain high-end mobiles”.
This policy will begin to apply to select high-end mobiles launched in 2023, so the terminals on sale today remain the same. Just like OnePlus did, OPPO hasn’t shared any models or series that will get this extended support, so we’ll have to wait for successive releases to come.
Currently, only Samsung offers four years of Android updates, with the ongoing promise of OnePlus and now OPPO to do the same. Even Google offers inferior support on its Google Pixels, which receive three years of updates.
OPPO adds that the deployment of ColorOS 13 was the fastest in its historyreaching 50% more mobile phones supported in its first four months of life than its predecessor over the same period.
