Nowadays, Samsung is one of the manufacturers who intend to take care of their mobile phones or tablets in terms of software support for a long, long time. For devices from the last year or two, care is valid for up to five years, however even older models were not or are not much worse off. For example, those from the Galaxy S10 series, for which security patches were promised for four years. The past tense in the previous sentence is unfortunately appropriate. Telephones Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+ and with them too Galaxy A50 they are no longer supported by the manufacturer since April of this year.
The tenth generation of the Galaxy S series was (and in the hands of many users still is) very popular, for example because of the older camera system. The mentioned three models came to the market in February 2019 and they had Android 9 in them at the time. The fourth representative in the form of a model Galaxy S10 Lite it went on sale about a year later and should have had longer support for at least this time.
The Galaxy A50 mobile phone (together) represents the beginning of the extremely successful “A” series, with which Samsung targeted the middle class years ago. It also appeared on the market in February 2019 and also had Android 9 in it. The owners of the mentioned four phones will have to either bypass without additional patches, or reach for an alternative custom ROM. Last fall, the same fate befell the Galaxy Note9 series.
