Google says it’ll support Pixel 8 series with seven years of Android updates

Two seven-year smartphones.

Now this is nice. Hopefully 3rd party manufacturers can also provide a longer life span for the device.

    I’d say I’d need a stylus, but I’m looking at my current phone and I don’t use it. And I’m not paying $1800 for a fold.

    And it’s been so long since I’ve gotten to use base android. I won’t miss Samsungs UI at all

      Yeah, I got the note thinking the stylus would come in handy… but I never actually use it. The few times I’ve taken pictures I have, but I rarely use the camera. It’s one of the last things I’m worried about with a phone. I mostly just play emulators on the bus, social media, YouTube, and that’s about it. So as long as games run fine, I’m good. I can use just about anyone for that.
