Android 15 or 16 for the Shiftphone

[B1bl10]

Hi everyone,

Are there any plans to upgrade the Android version on the Shiftphone? It is currently running version 14. Is an update to Android 15 or 16 being considered, as was done for the Teracube?

Best regards

They are talking about the Shiftphone8, since that one is currently on A14(/e/OS), while the manufacturer already ships A15.
