Bunch of negativity on Apple UI recently, but you gotta give Apple credit for supporting really old phones. Google Pixel, forget about it lol

Pixels 8 and later get 7 years. Not as good as Apple but reasonable.

Pixels 6-7 got 5 years. I'd say that's on the low end of okay.

For "lol" you have to go back to 2021 or earlier. Or look at some of Motorola's offerings.

The phones and the policies haven't been out long enough to see if Google actually releases updates at five years. The Pixel 6 will drop out of support in a year, so we'll see!

They're legally required to in the EU.
