Chinese technology company Vivo pm Monday announced that it will be expanding the software support for its smartphones committing to three years of OS upgrades, but only for a select few models. The other X series models will continue to receive regular Android security updates. The new Android OS upgrade policy applies to the European, Australian, and Indian markets.

Vivo has joined Google, Samsung and Nokia in the list of brands that now provide extended software support instead of usual two years of OS upgrades scheme that most manufacturers follow.

The policy covers the European, Australian, and Indian markets. However, existing X series models will continue to get security patches for 3 years even though they aren't eligible for the OS upgrade plans.

 

Last year, Samsung announced that it will support three generations of Android OS upgrades for select Galaxy devices. Following the suit, Vivo has now announced that it is expanding the software support for the flagship X series smartphones.

Last week, Oppo also committed to three years of software support for its premium Find X3 series, instead of two years. The company told Android Planet that it is also considering stretching this to four years.
