    How’s unihertz track record with providing updates? This is an important factor to avoid artificial obsolescence.

      What do you mean by track? Unihertz is a small Chinese manufacturer - it makes no guarantees around support and barely delivers any updates to its devices, as is the norm within much of the non-Google, non-Samsung Android market. It’s really only within the last couple of years that the industry has actually made a bit of progress in this area.

        Track record.

        This is a norm to be avoided. A phone without updates (at least security updates) should be avoided at all costs considering the potential consequences.

          I was being a dick and asking a rhetorical question there, because I thought it would be pretty obvious that the support for a small Chinese manufacturer would be abysmal.
