If you use Nokia smartphones, then there is good news for you. Because Nokia's smartphones have become number-1 in terms of software updates. According to a research report by research firm Counterpoint, Nokia is ahead of other companies in pushing software updates. The second number is Samsung.
Companies like Oppo, Vivo and Lenovo should learn from Nokia. Because just launching the smartphone will not only be beneficial for users, but those who have purchased smartphones should also get updates. Money is not just used for smartphones, some of it is also from software.
According to research firm Counterpoint, last year 96% of Nokia's smartphones have been sold with Android 9 Pie. Whereas Samsung has sold 89% of its smartphones last year with the latest software. Xiaomi and Huawei have sold 80% of smartphones with Android 9 Pie.
According to this report by Counterpoint, 50% of the smartphones of Oppo, Vivo and Lenovo are still running on the old Android 8.1 Oreo and even older Android version. Talking about Nokia, the company is ahead in giving security patches. This report from Counterpoint reveals a lot about smartphone companies.
Companies like Oppo, Vivo and Lenovo constantly launch smartphones. But despite this, new updates are not available. Many marketing gimmicks are happening to woo users. These include giving four cameras, making selfie cameras different and new features for gaming. All these companies entice users.
Software update is very important for any smartphone. The latest version of Android is better than the old version. Because through the latest version and new security patches, the company protects the smartphone from new malware, viruses and various security threats.
Generally, hackers also target older versions of Android, because they are easy to hack. Viruses attack every day in new ways. Malware rapidly changes the way you attack and similarly older users of Android are at risk.
