My Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is still being updated even though it came out in January 2021

History:
The US Samsung Galaxy A32-5G debuted in January of 2021.

I received a handful for free in April of 2021 one of which is the one I
use most, which was twice replaced for free as I mess with phones a lot.

It came with Android 11 but it was updated to 12 and then to Android 13.
I'm not sure if it's updatable to Android 14 though (how would I know?).

As with all Androids on version 10+ on the net, it's also updated monthly
over the Google Play system update feature (previously called Project
Mainline); but that only updates the ~25 core modules in Android 13 that
are updated in Project Mainline.

What kills most of my older phones was the battery, but this five amp hour
battery is going so strongly that I don't bother to charge it except when
it's needed (as it goes a couple of days easily without needing charging).

The phone only came with 64GB but with the SD card, it's basically
unlimited (where I store anything I add to the phone on the sd card).

If you received a phone around 3 years ago, how well is it doing for you?
