JAKARTA - Google will end the Android OS update for Pixel 2 and 2 XL devices. This has become a Google tradition when it launched its latest Pixel 5 device.

Android Police reported, Tuesday October 6, according to Google's schedule, Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL will get one more operating system update. However, it will be the last time after December 2020.

These operating system updates include security systems and other critical fixes. The Pixel 2 supports slightly more specs than its predecessor.

The Mountain View-based company promises two years of feature updates on the phone and one year of additional security updates. Even though the Pixel 2 is technically retired, they are getting the full update treatment Google committed at launch.

As is known, Google does promise OS updates for two or three years for every Pixel series that is launched. Android 11 is also an OS update received by Pixel 2 and 2 XL.

Even though the Android OS update is no longer available, the hardware on the Pixel 2 and 2 XL is still capable enough for use in the next few years. Unlike Apple, which will still promise iOS updates for its older cellphone series such as the iPhone 6S.
