This was the response from Realme when I emailed them about software support,they didn't really elaborate on Android versions and security patches though I assume that is all included in the two years.
Hello
Greetings from realme Europe. Thank you for reaching out to us.
We would like to inform you that in general, we provide updates once every or 2 months, continue to update it for 2 years.
Warm Regards,
Team realme Europe
Thanks, I got the same email last week
Between the 2 years update and q2 android 10, I decided to move to oneplus, waiting for a mclaren...

Yes, probably a wise decision,I'm currently on the 6T and hesitant to move to Realme even with the top specs,you are safest with OnePlus in terms of reliability and support.
Thanks Manus, received my McLaren and it's indeed perfect! Last message in realme forum for now, c ya in 4 years :good::laugh:

What I'm worried about is the silence about this update.
Usually when you start selling a phone that isn't at the last software you say that it will be updated in X time. This time NOTHING, nobody said something about it.
Asus has yet to prove themselves. While Zenfone 6 got a beta for Android 10, no other phone of theirs has. The first rog phone still doesn't have pie. Just learn to be happy with no updates to be honest than have false hope.
if no support later,we can flash GSI

anyupdate?
Hi! I'm seriously considering buying a refurbished Note 9 but noticed that Android 10 would be its second OS update after just 1 year and 4 months. Samsung's update policy is 2 OS updates with at least 3 years of security updates, does this mean Note 9 won't be updated to Android 11? This would be pretty bad if true. Just looking for someone to clear this up. Thanks.

Normaly in the past for all other models, things went as you said... 2, max 3 OS updates so maybe note 9 might have Android 11.

not sure what youre talking about. the note 9 has had constant updates all year on both the U and the F versions. To double check historical updates, you can look on sammobile.com/firmwares to see the last few releases. sammobile is pretty decent about keeping historical device links active.
Here is the link to the F version and there is a selector for the different variants as well right above the download links

I mentioned OS updates a.k.a Android version updates not security updates. Note 9 launched with Android 8.1, received Android 9 last year and Android 10 this year. That's 2 version updates already which is usually Samsung's limit (3 years of security updates not not withstanding). Note 9 based on past flagships shouldn't receive Android 11.

oh, you mean the separate versions of Android. You said updates, and they are starkly different things. Also, even within the Android "version" are releases which are also "Android version updates". Not trying to split hairs, rather clarify and help avoid people answering the question you asked vs the one you meant to ask.
So, the answer to that is very unlikely. Android releases are just a hair faster than the phone hardware releases and ive never seen more than 2 years of support on any phone, much less a Samsung one. Check my sig for currently owned Samsung phones.
Well you could see the history repeating it self, in this case we have note 8 wgich didn't get android 10, so i gues this will be the same with note9 when android 11 comes.
Can't really blame the lack of updates on Luna New Year, Corona or 10 series release because Mi 9T Pro has received 2 updates since December, what's going on? Not even a scrap of news or rumor of a update anytime soon.

Yeah I posted the same thing a few days back, no logical reason when other variants are getting updates, I'm in the same boat, stuck on November security patch

You'd think China rom would get updates more frequently given Xiaomi is a Chinese company but no, eea, global even Indian version Raphaelin k20 pro is getting updates but not us. It's disappointing, China rom imo is the best after debloating and if you ignore that space after apostrophe when using English and lack of security updates.

Hey mate just wanna let you know if u don't know already that about 2 days ago they released 11.0.7 China stable, no news, nothing in all the telegram channels I'm in, nothing in updater app only found out by browsing through eu.miui sourceforge. Don't know the changelog but downloading now, finally we get a update.
E: What's New
Optimization: system stability
Optimization: reduce system lag
February security patch

The phone is end of life. This is new Xiaomi politics... After 9 years with Xiaomi phones this is last for me.

No it's not EOL, Xiaomi are still releasing regular beta Chinese ROMs for this phone. Unfortunately this is the same with almost all manufacturers, once the initial round of serious bugs have been fixed, stable branch updates come at a glacial pace. Even though Google have recently tried to tie in manufacturers to guaranteed updates for x years, in order to get Google certification, we still do not see this happening from most manufacturers beyond the first 6 -12 months. This is why I first started, with the original Samsung Galaxy S, and continue to use, custom ROMs.
Can someone tell me the update policy of realme x2 pro....Like for how many years will it receive updates?
Any x2 pro users out here, could you also share your experience?
How can we know that dude?
The standard is 2 years, but who knows.

Where did the say that? Did they say December for global (all) devices or just in China?
And Android 12 for x2 pro? Somehow I doubt it, but it would be awesome.

Early access, India only
I went to the sammobile page every day like clockwork for all of November. Was doing the same for December and finally saw it.
It didn't pop up until TODAY, December 7th, 2022, despite being labeled November 29th, 2022.
But its here. Interest in this device seemed to evaporate with Android 11, so I have no idea if Android 12 or 13 can be rooted at all. Unless a clear answer to that, and if the old rooting technique will work, and if magisk can still be used or if some sort of alternative is necessary, guess I'll stick to 10.
But for the handful that still have the phone and don't root, Android 13 is finally here.
On this phone I would stay on 9 or 10. Android 13 is so far worse than 12 and many have rolled back to 11 from 12. CPU cycle sucking scoped storage is active from 11 up with more security garbage piled into 12, think 13 will be any better?
Or more of the same crap?
I'm not buying the Google hype, both Google and Samsung are on a 3 year losing streak of bad choices and products. Obviously you can upgrade at any time; let Mikey try it first
Can someone provide changelog please ?

Yes, well... it might take some time if they do release updates for this old model. I would have left running on Pie.

I actually stayed on 10 with this phone, since I was unsure if I upgraded if the same root method would still work.
But I've been following the updates out of morbid curiosity + the longshot hope someone would be brave enough to try with a more current (11 and up) iteration of Android. Alas.

I have two N10+'s one running on 9, the newer on 10. Very unlikely either will ever be upgraded.
The Pie one seems to run best and is easier to work with. Current load is 3 yo now, still fast and stable; no way I'm messing with that.
Personally I wouldn't upgrade past 10 as you will lose more than you gain. Both 9 and 10 are secure unless you do stupid things.
Less downtime means more playtime...
