Well, what do you know? As it turns out, Google thinks that you, people, are going to use Pixel phones for seven years. One of the hottest topics after the launch of the Pixel 8 series was and still is the super-long software support cycle. What's going on? Most surveys show that people use their phones for around two years before switching to the next model. So, is this a PR move? Or an attempt to beat Apple and Samsung in the numbers game? What do you think about it?

Smartphone users and reviewers has been complaining and pleading for long term software support and now to yield to users pleading and setting an example for as a good software company and smartphone manufacturer who take user experiences seriously they gave us longer software supports than the rests in the industry and yet we are still complaining it overkill and we don't need it, little do we forget these phones will still be used and purchased by millions years after their release. Hypocrisies of Humans
Don't get me wrong; I'm not complaining, just asking a few questions. Obviously, in my line of work, I rarely keep a phone for too long, but I wouldn't mind using a Pixel for seven years, IF it works just like in the beginning.
We don't have much info about the Tensor chipsets and Pixel hardware of late and how it ages with different Android versions. For what it's worth, this move may shake the second-hand market for Pixels, if nothing else. And it could potentially force other big players to try and match the seven-year pledge.
