It is a tough call sustaining software support for most smartphones beyond two years due to a raft of issues needed to make the extra update a success. Fast-rising Chinese brand Oppo is staking claims that there will be a minimum of three years of software support for its Find X3 series of premium smartphones. The trend out there in the market is that smartphone manufacturers progressively provide extended support for their models, and Oppo will not be left out
Two years of software updates are available generally, but Oppo says its Find X3 models will have an additional year of support for security patches. According to reports from Android Planet, the Chinese company ultimately says it hopes to further extend software support for the Find X3 series to four years. However, Oppo says that research is still ongoing to see how viable four-year extended software support for the series is.
According to the statement, the Oppo Find X3 series would be viable for up to three Android system updates, although the current Oppo policy remains two updates. Since the high-end Oppo FindX3 series originally came with Android 11, they will get Android 12 and Android 13 updates when available. It is observed that there are sometimes sharp differences between manufacturers on the number of system updates that would be available for their products.
The Find X3 Pro is the current flagship model from Oppo and comes well-kitted to compete with other high-end models from the market leaders. The flagship was unveiled together with the Find X3 Neo and X3 Lite and cost about $1,400. Oppo hopes to square up to its flagship model with Samsung’s Galaxy S21 Ultra, Xiaomi’s Mi 11 Pro, and OnePlus 9 Pro. The Find X3 Pro has an excellent design, powerful hardware and camera system, and other impressive features. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 chipset powers it with 5G support available. The 4500mAh battery of the X3 Pro has 65W super-fast charging and wireless charging.
