It's not FUD. Apple has _delivered_ updates for multiple generations of devices for 5+ years.

Samsung has promised to update for 4 OS versions. They haven't delivered anything yet. We'll see in 2027 if they can actually deliver.



Casting fear, uncertainty and doubt over a manufacturers claims is literally what FUD stands for. And that's what you're doing.


I had Samsung s9+ in 2018 and I did have monthly security upgrades up until 2022 when I had it. Their promise was 5 years of security upgrades.

I also had the latest Android version. iirc they promised 3 years of OS upgrades


This topic will probably resolve itself from 2025 on when the EU will start requiring 5 years of software updates.
