At the Made by Google event held in New York, Google not only announced that the Pixel 8 series will be the first phone equipped with the Android 14 operating system, but also announced that models including Pixel 4a and later will provide Android 14 operating system upgrades. Brands including Samsung, Xiaomi, OPPO, OnePlus, realme, vivo, iQOO, Sharp, Sony, Nothing, Tecno and other mobile phones will also receive Android 14 upgrades one after another.
In addition, Google announced that starting with the Pixel 8 series, it will provide a 7-year operating system update guarantee for Pixel phones, and will even provide 7 years of software technical support, so that the phone can be used for a longer time and even more software functions can be added over time.
Google first provided a 6-year operating system update guarantee starting with the Pixel 5 series. This time, it announced that the guarantee period will be extended by 2 years, which means that the problem of mobile phones being abandoned due to the lack of continuous operating system upgrades will be reduced. At the same time, it will also extend the user's phone replacement cycle time or increase the feasibility of recycling old phones.
As for Android 14 launched this year, Google has integrated more artificial intelligence technology applications, made the operating system more in line with personal needs, and even improved the intuitive experience of using the operating interface.
