Rumor: smartphones and tablets Google Nexus will be getting Android updates for two years after the release of the market – iXBT.com

When buying a new smartphone, many people do not think about how long it will be issued for the new version of the operating system. Android Police says that in late May, Google might announce a new policy update release for Android-devices.


 
 

An anonymous source claims that the line of smartphones and tablet Google Nexus will receive updates of the operating system for two years after its launch, and security patches – three years after the release of, or within 18 months after the last purchase in Google Play . This rule will be applied not only to new smartphones and tablets, but also to the already released devices. That is why the Nexus 4, Nexus 10 and Nexus 7 (model 2012) will not receive the update to Android M, but for some time still be able to receive security patches.


 

The owners of the Nexus 7 (2013), Nexus 5, Nexus Nexus 6 and 9, that have entered the market, respectively, in July 2013, October 2013 and November 2014 (Nexus Nexus 6 and 9), can expect the release of new versions of the OS for their devices.

 

On this policy, and especially with regard to its devices from third-party manufacturers have to tell the event Google I / O, which will be held at the end of the week and will focus on Android M, or after the announcement of a new model of Nexus.
