In 2016, Consumentenbond, a consumer rights non-profit organization in the Netherlands, took Samsung to court because some Samsung mobile phones did not provide two-year system updates. A few days ago, the Dutch court has officially heard this case.

Consumentenbond It is hoped that large companies such as Samsung can guarantee to provide system updates for smartphones sold for up to two years. After all, many smart phones today can no longer get updates after upgrading the system once or twice. In addition to not having more new functions, they can not get security patches regularly, resulting in privacy leakage or phone poisoning.

However, Samsung does provide two years of system updates for its smart phones, but Consumentenbond points out that this "two years" is calculated from the date of the launch of the phone. If some consumers buy the phone one year after the launch, they can only get one year of system updates. So Consumentenbond hopes that not only will it be updated regularly for two years, but it will also ensure that all consumers, no matter when they buy it, will be able to obtain system updates within two years after they buy it. However, this seems a bit unreasonable. After all, if consumers buy it two years after it is launched, Isn't it true that mobile phone manufacturers have to provide four years of system updates?

In fact, flagship phones like S9 can get regular system updates for two years
