A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

  1. It’s 8 apparently
  2. 5 years is as long as most phones that I used last so there would be no point to buy it

According to Fairphone "We plan at least 5 Android OS version updates after Android 13".

Let's see. There is still no Android 13 on the FP4.

At least CalyxOS, DivestOS offer Android 13 builds for FP4 (and obviously LineageOS, but it doesn't have OTA updates, afaik)
