In an era where smartphone manufacturers are increasingly extending their software support, the Galaxy S20 series has reached the end of its journey. This marks a significant moment for users who have relied on these devices since their release, as Samsung officially ends all software updates for this flagship lineup.
The devices in question are the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, and Galaxy S20 Ultra. After five years of service, these models have concluded their update cycle. Initially, Samsung provided monthly security updates for the first four years, transitioning to a quarterly update schedule in the final year. Now, as promised, all support has officially ceased, concluding the five-year update guarantee.
On a positive note, the Galaxy S20 FE, released later, is still receiving quarterly security updates. However, its support will also end in the coming months.
This development prompts a larger conversation about how long software support should last. With many manufacturers extending their update commitments, it raises the question: what is the ideal duration for software support in your opinion? How frequently do you find yourself upgrading to a new phone? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
