Market is very competitive now, as of now nothing has gave us not a single extraordinary thing as other brands are giving to their users. 5 year OS update f...

From a sustainability perspective and reducing waste, can’t Nothing company look for a prolonged software updates including security updates, similar on the lines of Samsung. Or alternatively, can’t they have a fee based software/ security update ( like we have an extended warranty for many products for a fee, again I believe it will be industry first) . Changing phones just because there are no support available from the company is such a shame. Can’t be anything done on this front to reduce the e waste

Now moto also joins 5 years update club. Atleast nothing should consider this for their flagship phones.

Jerin Jose not only fo flagship line, for mid rangers too it should be 5 years of os updates like in samsung/motorolla/pixel line.

The market is a hard place to be at these competitive times full of different phone models for Nothing Phones to stand out & make more demands on the market I would urge Nothing team to consider upgrades of the software updates to five (5) years of updates just like how Google Pixel devices have done to their old devices currently.

Trust me if they implement this bold move to their devices I am certain they will conquer the market so easily because most of the users love updated devices & I am sure Nothing devices can handle major software updates without any problems.

Nothing001 Google own their chip, Tensor, that’s how they achieved this, Nothing depend on Qualcomm

Google’s extended Pixel updates prove just how important Tensor is - Android Authority

Nothing001

RapidZapper But still our Qualcomm chipsets are stronger than the Tensor chipset and am sure Nothing can handle more than the Google chipset even if they make there own chipsets

RapidZapper I made a search for how many updates can Nothing phone 1, Nothing phone 2,Nothing phone 2a and 2a plus. Nothing phone 1 and phone 2 can support a 4 years of os update according to the sources given here.

Snapdragon 8+ gen 1 chipset is a flagship chipset and it can for sure support 4 years atleast . I can understand 5 years is a bit too much to ask from a 4 years brand. But I personally don’t feel it too much to ask for a extension of 1 more year which is 4 year. The chipset is capable of doing it then why not?

Please consider this as a request and do the needed.

Not at £169 for the CheapMoFo 1.

5 years update is must now if you ay like that.

RapidZapper

BassimBinYoosaf Well that’s up to Snapdragon, actually End of Life of this specific chip is set on Android 15 and we’re getting Android 16 which is already a +1 over normal limitation

Okkay I agree on the side of Nothing phone 1 it has a increased software policy. But Nothing phone 2 was started from the beginning of Android 13 and Android 16 is just 3 years and there is no extended period in it. Actually in Samsung galaxy z fold 4 snapdragon 8 plus gen 1 was used from Android 12 and it will recieve upto Android 16 that is a proper 4 year.

So if the manufacturing brand wishes to increase the software they can take it one more year as Nothing phone 2 used snapdragon 8 plus gen 1 from Android 13 to Android 17

Leave all other things ahead . Nothing introduced Nothing Phone 2 as their flagship model. Most new flagship phones gives their user 4 years of software update.

BassimBinYoosaf Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ is an Android 12 chip, no matter what the base version is on the phone at launch

la tecnología avanza muy rápido cada año tenemos procesadores más potentes y eficientes y con ello se va adaptando el software para el hardware.

Para mí es puro marketing de las empresas ofreciendo largos periodos de actualizaciones solo para tener contentos a sus clientes, pero se les olvida la calidad que será de un nothin phone 2 cuando pases esos 5 años les aseguro que será lento o carente de ciertas funciones que no podrá llevar bien por su hardware ya obsoleto

Yo estoy conforme con la empresa y veo que comparan muchas características de otras marcas, pero ahí esta lo bonito de este gran mercado tenemos para escoger si no les gusta la propuesta vas con otra marca, claro que hay carencias en nothing pero si de verdad quieren una empresa mejor pidan con sentido común no como niños haciendo berrinche porque no ponen o hacen las cosas como quieren.

I agree with your point but if you make a search yourself you can find that snapdragon 8 plus gen 1 is a chipset which is capable of even handling 5 years of software update. In such a case the brand should be providing atleast a 4 years of OS update. That is a basic necessity of a user.

As an Indian user , most Indians uses a device to its maximum lifetime. So it will be a good decision if they bring 1 more OS year for their users.

AlexSilva1520

BassimBinYoosaf has usado o visto comparaciones de rendimiento de 8 plus gen 1 con el actual, sigo insistiendo que es demasiado el tiempo que piden afectaría mucho la calidad del producto

y sobre el uso de la india entiendo que no es fácil cambiar tan seguido como en otros países que suele ser más fácil dado sus economías, pero las marcas no están creando solo para su país.

Apple tiene sus propios procesadores y son de los más potentes y ofrecen hasta 6 años de actualizaciones, pero cuando tomas un iphone 16 y lo comparas con un 12 ves que el rendimiento y funciones están muy alejadas a pesar de correr el mismo sistema operativo, así que defiendo y sigo pensando que cinco años es mucho tiempo para mí, lo máximo seria 4 años y lo ideal sería 3.

I agree that it is an Android 12 processor. But it was used from Android 13 so technically 1 year of OS update can be added by the manufacturing brand by requesting to Qualcomm

Bro I am not asking for a 5 years of software update. I am asking for 4years of software and 5 years of security update. I can understand that 5 years is a bit more and might destroy the overall usage .

But my point was that it is capable of handling 5 years and we users are getting only a 3 years of os update and 4 years of security update.

AlexSilva1520

BassimBinYoosaf y como dicen comentarios anteriores es una empresa joven no puedes exigir tanto.

Aun esos 4 años que pides supones un gran esfuerzo para la compañía y como dicen en mi país prefiero calidad a la cantidad

Bro I am requesting not demanding. I am requesting for a feature which I feel would be very beneficial for people’s in my country. But this may also help people’s from other countries also.

And I am aware that Nothing is a new brand and i respect their works and effort to make the user happy. But that doesn’t mean I can’t make a feature request.
