That doesn't contradict what I wrote. This is a recently announced change
and is the policy only of Samsung (and google) not Android. What will other
manufacturers do?
It was five years prior, where I got my set of free Samsung Galaxy A32-5G
phones way back in 2020 and they're all still fully updated and have had
four major Android upgrades and monthly hotfix security updates all along.
Rather than use pointless anecdotes, including my iphone XR from 2019 which
has had 5 full upgrades and is still fully supported, let's look at the
facts shall we?

Doesn't look so great for Samsung or particularly Google. It's obvious why
they've had to announce better support.
