A turning point in the updates strategy
Until recently, Realme offered a rather contained window of updates for its models of the number of the numbered series: two main versions of Android and three years of security patches. With the arrival of the Realme 15 series and the relaunch of software policy on some models of the 14 series, the company has decided to raise the bar.
Now we talk about three major updates of the operating system and four years of safety updates.
Specifically, the models affected by this change are:
- Realme 15
- Realme 15 pro
- Realme 14t
- Realme 14 Pro
- Realme 14 Pro+
On the other hand, other models such as Realme 14x remain excluded from the new policy, which will continue to follow the original update cycle. All the devices mentioned were launched with Android 15, which means that will be updated to Android 18with guaranteed security patches up to 2028.
A choice in line with the rest of the market
In recent years, attention to the cycle of software updates has grown considerably. Brands such as Samsung, Google and OnePlus have raised their promises, also offering five or seven years of support on flagship models.
Francis Wong, REALME manager and a well -known face among the brand enthusiasts, confirmed that this new policy will be also valid for future devices Belonging to the Number, Number Pro and Number T lages
But extending these benefits also to mid -range products is a more delicate and certainly commendable operation, because it involves additional costs and greater complexity in the management of software versions.
With this decision, Realme aligns with the market trend And it shows that you want to compete not only on the price and hardware, but also on the quality and duration of the user experience.
The real challenge will be to see if the company will be able to support this promise over time, even in an increasingly faster and more complex technological context.
With Android 16 now upon us, respect for the timing and the quality of the updates will become key factors to demonstrate the seriousness of this new strategy.
Over the years, Realme has noticed above all for the very aggressive quality-price ratio, but this move suggests an attempt to raise the positioning of the brand and strengthen its credibility. Extended software support contributes to creating confidence between users and represents one of the key elements to fully enter the reference manufacturers.
