   Nope. Google published theirs in Oct/Nov last year and Samsung earlier this   
   year.

   Over the seven years, yes, but there's no mention of  *concurrent* support   
   for multiple releases. I'd be very, very surprised that they will support   
   six versions of the OS at the same thing.

   Incorrect. Over the course of the lifetime of phone it gets multiple fully   
   supported releases. Typically 5 or 6.   
      
   Just like google/samsung's promise.

   Meaningless. That isn't "full" support as you love to shout about.

   You're a very funny man. I hope you don't actually believe that.

   Hahaha! "Fully supporting select services" is laughable.
