    That does not exempt them from leading the industry, though.

    It does. The industry longer support time is currently driven by the industry leaders Xiaomi has to compete - Samsung, Google and Apple.

    Oh, they’re definitively not perfect but update cycles is also not the sole things Faiphone is about.

    Sure. I do not say that Fairphone is bad or anything like that. But comparing support time one should also consider update speed and wiality. It could happen that 4 years of OS update delivers more than 6 years in a real life.

    Btw, do you have a Fairphone?

        Got it, for you fairphone leads the industry and xiaomi, tries to match it. It looks like we live in different worlds.

          for you fairphone leads the industry

          In long-term support of Android: Absolutely.

          and xiaomi, tries to match it.

          No, not even close.

          It looks like we live in different worlds.

          Indeed. I live in reality and you live in a fantasy world where five full Android upgrades and eight years of bugfixes are not leading the industry.

            Indeed. I live in reality and you live in a fantasy world Personal attack? Nice!

            Anyways, yes - I will stay in my “fantasy world” and will enjoy fast and long updates of my phone. Probably, our worlds will intersect when fairphone becomes visible outside of “others” in smartphone industry reports.

            Have a nice day!
