According to the article, it launched with android 10. So, just android 11 and android 12L. Giving an android 13 update was the least they could’ve done, considering android 14 is around the corner. Oh, well. Do not buy products from companies that do not guarantee to provide one.
Pretty standard for Android phones. I don’t know of many that go to 3 versions besides the Pixel.
As much as I dislike Apple, I do have to give it to them for software support. The oldest phone that has the current iOS is the iPhone 8, a phone from 2017. 6 years of updates. That makes it as old as a Pixel 2, and that only goes to Android 11, from 2020.
Well… this is not cool. On the other hand, it was clearly an experimental product. Do not think people purchased it expected a mainstream like support.
I was really hoping for the Duo to succeed and be iterated upon. It fascinated me and seemed like it would be useful for taking notes at work, provided I ever RTO. Oh, well.
“The company has stated from the very start that the Surface Duo would receive just three years of OS updates, meaning today is the last day that Microsoft has to stay true to its word.”
I can hardly find a company that supports their product and their backward compatibility longer than ms. Just recently read that wordpad had an alias “writer” (or similar) because this was its name before decades ago and there could be apps/scripts relying using this nsme.
I loved my windows phone 7, it was the best phone OS I’ve ever had.
I liked the UI, I liked the consistency and simplicity of the apps. I had Xbox music before Spotify really took off. The only problem was the trident based browser and Google specifically blocking all their apps and maps from it.
Then Microsoft just dropped support for it… I held out on 7.5 for as long as I could, and then my charge port failed and I upgraded to the HTC One, which was also pretty good.
I paid for it too. I mean fuck man. I’ve been using winrar for almost 30 years. That’s more than I can say for most things in my life. I figured it was the least I could do.
Early in the morning post, worded that wrong, but the sentiment is the same, open source or independent projects, the creators need something in return to keep working on them
I’ve paid for winrar because I decided I’ve used it for the better half of my life and well kindly keep using it and getting rid of that pop up whilst also giving back to soldering i use regularly was the right choice for me.
