Read about the report: | A recent security report has shown that not all Android OEMs deliver timely security updates. It even suggested that some OEMs plainly lie about which updates have been applied. This isn’t an accusation that you would hear leveled at Apple. So what is the difference?

#Apple #care #users #Android #OEMs
did he just say samsung and sony are resposible oems that provides updates quickly, are you living under a rock gary
all of nokia phones are android 1 htc always updates their phones on time its samsung lg and sony that never provides updates
Apple cares about their customers?
That’s a good one
Just see what Louis Rossman thinks about that.
Pretty much says that you must run away from Apple products
LG definitely doesn’t! I think it’s more carriers than oems…though any of them could care less as long as they make money
Good to see Xioami at quite a higher place.…using redmi phone
I find your zoomed in background a bit shocking
Coming from an x android lover I can’t imagine going back to just android I love software updates hardware ages badly and only stays relevant if software continues to be updated and patched so if I do get another phone it will be a pixel I can’t go back to long waits so iPhone is my way to go
that’s why now motorola is moving away from mtk even in their lowest moto e5 to pass on updates in time.. really mtk…?
Why can’t google code android like windows or Linux where it no longer needs manufacturers or carriers to tweak the phone? All it does is force bloatware on to the phones and take months after the latest updates to come out. Which could potentially be obsolete by then.
How do you compare one company with 100 other companies ? Apple have 3 models a year so there update system isnt that hard to do. While Android devices come in from so many different companies with so many different configurations that it’s harder to make update to all of them. And apple does only flagship with premium+ price tags and extra for the brand while you get even 2018 year android phones from starting point of 60–70 euro and there is lots of android phones that cost under 300 euro from any brand 3–4 models at least.
I knew it!
Thank you.
I dont understand how you can list Samsung and Sony as good examples of shipping security updates in time… Sure they do it for high end devices for a limited time but then they start slacking. Not to even mention their low end devices. Support is next to none after initial launch.
In India we don’t have that kind of Carrier locking system if any Carrier try to do this no one will buy it .…..
This is how we told companies to what they should do .
dude, That background is HIDEOUS !
Apple cares about customers. Lol. If the care aboyt customers, they wouldn’t charge 550$ to repair iphone x
red ‘red hat’ hat
I think the carrier problem is specific to the US we don’t have carriers that limit our update and I don’t know why they’d bother to try to control the updates. Maybe to get people to buy new phones I guess.
Bullshit.…..apple would be the last one to care about customers.….they just want people to pay for each and everything.… closed eco system.…no choices with products.….
and about updates.…the scenario is changing with Android phones
Agree this is the problem with Android
I have a LG v30 I’m on 7.1 and I have a January patch. My older Huawei mate 9 is on Android 8.1 and has the latest patch. Im so disappointed with LG my next phone is just gonna be a Google pixel phone. I’m done with the bull shit of taking your money 900.00 dollars and you don’t get any updates.
Nokia pushes security patches faster than Samsung and sony( and most of the tier 1 companies)
Sony cares 🙂
Yeah apple cares for their customers. Lmao. Watch louis rossman’s channel and see how much apple care.
I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on people being able to use custom ROMs to receive updated security patches and how that fits into the mould, given its not for the everyday person
That’s why Apple is better.
I was a long time Andriod user but due to this very problem of missing security patches, andriod upgrades I made a tough decision to move to iOS. My priority was security and updates and hence, iOS was best for me. I still do not like it as much but it servs my purpose. All the apple products communicate so very well with each other that the eco-system grows on you. I just bought an iPhone first, then did Apple Watch and also Macbook Pro without even realising I am now in Apple eco-system. To be honest, I am overly happy now than I was before with devices from all the different manufactures. I have tasted both eco-systems but nothing can match the Customer Service, Support and longetivity of Apple devices. The higher cost over time feels miniscule.
Samasung Flagship sells for almost at same price as top tier iPhone but the later are supported for more than 4 years while Samsung goes dead in 2 years.
Make a wise choice and value your money 🙂
Software is not a reason to exclude an oem from customer focus. In the reverse consider the alternative at lets take sprint. Android devices offer hpue which only happens because they work closer with carriers to bring better options for customers or at Sprint with 600mhz. I do agree with the cost analysis to which cost of devices tend to measure specifically towards length of software/security support.
Best professor in whole world whole internet or YouTube
this is why i love xiaomi, my 5year old phone still receiving update
I didn’t know Gary was actually Ant-Man.
I’m patiently patiently when Google will behave like Microsoft. They have total control of the OS with no skins and UI crap. I hope Fuschia solves that problem especially Chinese crap phones.
This is what ultimately got me to go with a Nokia phone with Android One.
LG definitely doesn’t care
Motorola doesn’t care, LG doesn’t care,Lenovo doesn’t care.
Nokia 3.1 with 8.0 and August patch. Android One doesn’t mean fast updates either.
Bottom line: Stick with Apple if you want best security.
So many lies so little time
Perhaps because it’s their Web kit on the chopping block
