7 years of OS support! That's the kind of stuff I like to hear.
Now I would really like for Google to retroactively upgrade the Pixel 6 and 7 update support to match the Pixel 8.
Yeah, they're not gonna do that. The GrapheneOS team thinks Google will give the 6 and 7 series 5 full years of OS upgrades instead of 3 OS + 2 security tho so fingers crossed.
I'd love it too with my 7a, but there's no way Google does something nice just 'cause. They've already sold the phones with a shorter support window and they gain nothing by releasing more updates for those devices.
Oh yeah, I totally agree with you, hell will freeze before Google does that.
Definitely great to hear. It's too bad they're not bringing new pixel software features to older devices though. It'd be a great way to differentiate their lineup from the iPhone.
Until Google decides to change its mind 🙃
Lol, there's a non-zero chance that Google cancels the Pixel series.
