Is the s20+ still supported by system updates?

Don't know if it safe to use if there is no updates, last updated was October 1st.

Hello @lostone https://www.androidauthority.com/samsung-galaxy-s20-update-1087091/ seems to point to the latest info on S20 updates

Hi again @lostone https://www.sammobile.com/news/galaxy-a71-android-13-update-released-one-ui-5-0/ for A71

Depends on the version of the phone, if its a carrier version then it may never get an update. If it was an unlocked phone it should get updates for a few years yet.

Safe to use? Well if you're not downloading random apps from unsafe places, or if you're not a government super-spy, then it'll be fine. Most cheap android phones never get updates, and some are years out of date when new.

Hi there, I have the Samsung s20 ultra and am still getting all the updates, yet this phone comes straight from Samsung, and I bought the phone in May 2020. I hope this helps, thanks

Absolutely, @lostone. The S20 series gets three years of Android OS upgrades, and four years of security updates - so, Android 13 is the last OS upgrade for your phone, but you will get another year of security updates.

This is also true for the A71. 👍
