Murena smartphones life

hi, /e/-OS users,

e.foundation (murena) proposes /e/-OS equipped smartphones : Fairphones, Samsung, Pixel, which benefit of the last LineageOS/Android versions (u for 14, for instance), but also Gigaset, Teracube, Murena, or CMF phones.

The OS-updates for these phones depend of Android updates by the phone manufacturer, and support of Lineage . How many years the proposed phones can benefit of an operational /e/-OS ?

thank-you for any hint; Brieucs.

You can check the specifics for individual devices in the FAQ’s at the shop
Technically we try to release /e/OS as long as the device can handle it. If you check our supported device list there are devices 8 years old there.

hi, Manoj, thank-you for the hints;
so, I notice that for a daily-use of an e-OS-phone, the “official” version is needed; today, according to the list :

  • GS290, Murena1, Teracube, Galaxy and OnePlus-N, got a “s”-level-OS;
  • Murena2, Pixel 5 & 7, Fairphone 3,4 & 5 get “t”-level-OS ;
  • Pixel-8 has “u”-level.

5 years OS-support is reasonable, and the battery-life has also to be considered.
regards; Brieucs.
