LG shuttered its cellular division a number of days in the past, reportedly, after failing to discover a purchaser. The firm introduced its exit from the market after its telephone enterprise failed to show a revenue for years in a row. Despite attempting to innovate, LG Mobile stored bleeding cash. After the announcement, LG additionally mentioned that it goals to release Android 12 replace for a handful of its telephones. However, given the poor monitor document, we aren’t too hopeful about it. That mentioned, LG Mobile has now pledged for one thing that the majority different telephone producers don’t do.
LG Electronics introduced at this time that each one its premium smartphones will obtain as much as three iterations of Android working system updates from the 12 months of buy. That means when you bought a telephone working Android 10, and up to date it to Android 11, it is nonetheless eligible for Android 12 and 13 OS updates. Most different telephone producers present two years of OS updates and three to 4 years of safety updates. Hence, we’re a bit skeptical about how LG plans to tug this off.
“The three OS update guarantee applies to LG premium phones released in 2019 and later (G series, V series, VELVET, Wing) while certain 2020 models such as LG Stylo and K series will receive two OS updates,” wrote LG in its blog post.
The lineup of premium telephones launched in 2019 and later eligible for updates embrace G sequence, V sequence, VELVET, and Wing. Moreover, sure 2020 fashions corresponding to LG Stylo and Okay sequence will obtain two OS updates provided that the system is appropriate with upcoming OS. Moreover, LG says that it’s going to proceed to fabricate telephones via the second quarter “to meet contractual obligations to carriers and partners.” Hence, shoppers can nonetheless buy LG cellphones presently in stock. Further, service assist and safety software program updates will proceed to be offered for a interval of time for sure units.
