How mobilephones have so shitty support? OEM's drop support like in 1 year or in some cases even less. For example I still receive all updates to my 10 year old chinkpad.

I have picture related and android 6.0 was the last update it will get.

They want you to buy a new phone. Root that shit and use custom ROMs once you no longer get official support.

fucking jews

Happens with all manufacturers. Flagships get 2 years of support at most.

still a good phone anon, just gotta root and flash.

oh, except my top camera lens got fully pushed into the body of my phone. Oh, and the 'H,' 'T,' and 'C' black bits came off the back and fell into my pocket one day.

Oh, and the top bezel is bowing out like mad.

But still, it's an ok phone.

6.0 runs like shit on it though.

Flash what? still no stable cm13 build and I'm scared of "bugs: you tell me" roms from xda, any suggestions?

welp, I'm still running OTA 6.0

>mfw there was almost o noticeable change except an added swipe to get past lock screen and added lag.

>>56235554
Whatever Sense version ran the best.
>>
>>56235516
Yeah I think 5.1->6.0 was really shitty update, what happened?
>>
I have this same phone just updated to 6.0, unable to unlock bootloader because its a verizon model, planing on getting a nexus 6 as soon as i see one new for less than 200usd
>>
>>56235614

sense hardly changed and yet ran slower and (like I said) I had to swipe an extra time to get to my pattern unlock.
>>
>>56235648

it was good while it lasted though. MicroSD and fucking sick front speakers.

Screen was good too. Quick Charge.

Good times. My chinkphone is in the mail.
>>
>>56235648
Can I reverse back to 5.1 when all ran smoothly?
>>
>>56235670

if you root and flash you can do whatever the heck you hecking want, anon.
