Samsung is also a pioneer with Android 14, delivering faster and more reliably than many others.
At the end of the year, we can once again praise Samsung and criticize other manufacturers. Because it’s still the case in the Android world that many well-known brands that like to be loud in their marketing don’t do the best job when it comes to updates. To the dismay of many, Samsung is an exception.
The South Koreans don’t do everything right either, but when it comes to delivering new Android versions quickly and carefully, Samsung is by far the best example of any Android brand except Google. Also because OneUI and Android are not different. Anyone who gets the latest OneUI 6 will also get the latest Android and vice versa.
Xiaomi and Co. Talks a lot, but delivers only sparingly
There are manufacturers like Xiaomi where having the latest manufacturer software does not mean getting the latest Android version. A shortcoming that will hopefully be remedied with HyperOS. And while Samsung has already updated many devices and even mid-range smartphones from 2021 (now the Galaxy A52), other brands have yet to start delivering.
Our colleagues As a negative example mention nothing, which is now only starting with the Android 14 beta for phones (1). We actually had a lot of time for that. The young brand could have made a direct statement, but missed this opportunity. Samsung, however, will soon update all eligible Galaxy devices to Android 14 with OneUI 6.
Still, a lot has happened in the delivery of new Android versions and almost all Android brands are better today than they were a few years ago. But we’re still a long way from there with a reliable update guarantee and guaranteed fast delivery across all price ranges and manufacturers.
Wear OS is a good example
Wear OS is another example; Samsung has recently been faster than Google. Re-entry into the wearables ecosystem is almost exclusively positive from 2021 onwards. Samsung releases new watches with the latest software and updates older Galaxy Watch models very quickly Other brands, Mobvoi or Fossil, find it extremely difficult here.
