Hi, does anyone know how Long LG will keep offering V20 software updates looking at the Pixel Google guaranteeing Android version updates for 2 years and 3 years for Security patches

Thanks

That's about what the industry does for flagship phones, so LG will probably do about the same.

How has LG been in the past with the V10?

Almost a guarantee on the boot loop

Almost a guarantee on the boot loop

We shall see. Many people that have the V10 don't have the boot loop.

I hope to be one of them.

It also depends on the carrier. Sometimes a carrier *cough*Verizon*cough* will be slow to update, then roll out several add one big package.

I usually get at least 2 major updates (complete Android version update; like from Marshmallow to Nougat for example) on a flagship device and several minor ones. The Google phones are usually one step ahead of the pack (Pixel is on 7.1 vs the V20 on 7.0 for example) but the bottom line is, by the time the V20 stops getting updates, you're probably already going to be ready for your next device upgrade anyway. For most people (myself included) that's not going to be a deal breaker. Unless you want to stay with the V20 well past 2 years.
