Topic	As a longtime Galaxy user, any reason to switch to Pixel?
s0nicfan 07/03/23 12:08:23 PM #6:	AloneIBreak posted... This is no longer the case. Pixels now get 3 years of OS updates followed by 2 years of security updates. New Galaxy phones get 4 years of OS updates and additional year of security patches. In each case youll get 5 years of security updates, but a Samsung will net you an additional OS update. I like Pixels when Im on android because the software is clean and Google includes nice phone features, like call screening. Samsungs usually come with a bunch of preinstalled bullshit you have to uninstall or disable, which irritates me. I find the Pixel software less busy and easier to figure out than Samsungs OneUI, but thats personal preference really. Samsungs have nicer screens and better batteries though. Oh, that's unfortunate. One of the biggest selling points of buying directly through google was supposed to be a longer shelf-life in terms of updates since they don't have to get routed through a third party. I guess that was proving untenable, though. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
