Starting with the Pixel 8 series, there should be a significantly better update guarantee.
In recent years there has been justifiable criticism of update guarantees for Pixel devices. With a maximum of three years (for Android updates), it was too short. Outpaces Google, Samsung offers more. With the introduction of the Pixel 8 smartphone, it should get even better.
Currently there is an update guarantee for Google devices with 5 years for security updates and 3 years for Android updates. This is fine for a 500 euro smartphone. But the Pixel 7a and Pixel Fold have the same update guarantee, even though the devices cost a good 1,400 euros.
