HTC smartphones updates faster than the competition


Now we are seeing fairly rapid growth of the smartphone market, technology and software, and in addition to that - manufacturers are trying to cover as many regions and segments, significantly, "inflating" lineup. Ultimately, this affects users - quickly update a huge number of heterogeneous devices is not easy. But according to studies, some people can not handle this much better than the competition!
Android updates too slowPortal ArsTechnica, known for its high quality research smartphones made comparative graphs of speed upgrade devices from different manufacturers. The study included: Motorola, LG, Samsung and HTC. Since ArsTechnica American resource, then took only smartphones available in the U.S.. However, the picture is still expressive and clearly shows who of producers really working on updates hard.
Of the four manufacturers participating in the study were the slowest of the Korean LG, on average, the first update to their smartphone gets through 11.9 months, almost a year later. In this case, the quickest time from this manufacturer is 9 months, the longest - 16. Interestingly, no machine LG, according to the charts, the second update, and has not received.
In third place is now owned by Google Motorola Mobility, one of the pioneers of mobile radio communications. On average, the revitalized company spends 8.4 months, and some of the devices even after receiving the second major version release of Android, though it was spent in about a year. If you take into account the actual devices that came out after the transfer to the six-month Android update cycle, it updates the Motorola smartphones in 8-12 months
Second, of course, is another Korean company, in combination is a market leader in Android, - Samsung. They spread in the first update is very large, from 2 to 11 months, however, and the second update of smartphones to receive either 3 months or a year. With so many versions of the same device, it is technically very different from each other, even surprising that Koreans provide a good support for most of them. The average buyer update reached via smartphone Samsung 6.9 months.
Finally, on the first place of honor - HTC, with the average results of less than six months - 4.7 months. Given that HTC is almost always produces a high-end device with latest version of Android, the following update on the Taiwanese company spends between 4 and 10 months. The study took into account the following devices with Android Gingerbread, and then the update rate was much higher. But even if you exclude them, the first place will remain for the Taiwanese.The result was that the HTC is the leader in the update rate of smartphones, is now no wonder why other studies according to owners of the devices HTC - most satisfied.Even Taiwanese company manufactures recent software too slow. Existence of its own shell, services and other products that are also to be sold - all this increases the time elapsed between the release of new versions of Android and updating it to existing devices. Solution would be otvyazki OS from a graphical environment that is itself Android updated to Google, and the user environment - the smartphone manufacturer. But at the moment it looks like a fantasy.
