I want to buy a phone that will keep receiving updates
Hi everyone,
I'm currently using an iPhone 4 that I bought mid-2010 shortly after it was released, then running iOS 4.0. Four years later, it received its last update to 7.1.2. Not only because of that, but mainly because it has become rather slow, it's about time for a new phone for me.
And this time around, I'd like to try an Android device. But from what I've heard from friends and co-workers, these phones rarely seem to get more than one OS update; some didn't get any major updates at all. That would suck, because I would like to stick to that device for a few years again.
So, I'm looking for an Android phone that is likely to get updates continuously, and has the power reserves to make use of these coming updates.
Before you say "Nexus 6": that thing is way too big for my taste ;-) I was thinking more along the lines of a Sony Z3 compact. But will Sony keep providing updates?
I got my hopes up when I read about the Motorola Droid Turbo, but sadly we don't get that in Germany for some reason.
So, any recommendations? Thanks in advance!
