Some older Samsung smartphones and tablets won’t get the latest updates and features for a long time. It would be better if you buy new devices instead.
South Korean tech company Samsung has a huge user base in the Indian market and its devices are widely purchased. If you are also planning to buy a new Samsung phone, then it would be better to choose a device that will keep getting the latest software updates for a long time. There are many Samsung phones that are available at bumper discounts due to being old models but they do not get new updates.
There are many Samsung devices that were promised three years of software updates and some of these updates have already been received. The company now gives five major Android updates to new devices. You can see the list of these devices that were supposed to get three major updates. It would be better if you chose new models instead of these.
