I've had my Zenfone 8 for maybe 2 maybe 2 1/2 years.
It is running Android 13.
System version 33.0210.0210.332 "is up to date".
Security dated 1.NOV.2023 "is up to date".
All this is just fine. Updates have occurred without any intervention or any request from me.
My questions are
(1) Who initiates these updates? (Asus? Google? Other?)
(2) How long will they continue? (Will the phone have an imposed lifetime after which it can still be used but - like Windows versions or BlackBerry phones - there will be no updates, security or functional or otherwise, so that the phone is deemed steadily less and less useable and less and less safe. What is this lifetime for an Asus Zenfone 8?)
Thank you!
