Android 5 is the lowest requirement I've seen (recently). Samsung
Internet requires it at least. I also got a notification in the official
Formula 1 app recently that they won't be supporting my old junker of a
tablet running Android 4.4 any more. Haven't tried WhatsApp on it but
Play Store says it's installable.

https://www.whatsapp.com/android/  says 2.3.3.

Besides those limits, older devices get very few updates. My older phone
gets none in months (version 2 something). My tablet with version 4 or
5, a few. I'm sure they are vulnerable to attacks.

It's still working on Android 6.0, is it not on your Android 6.0?

I have an Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet with the Fire OS (approximately
Android 5.x) that I added the Google Play Store to. So it can get apps
and updates from both the Amazon app store AND the Google Play Store.
But I have to keep both store's automatic app updates turned off because
the stores keep trying to update each others apps... 8-O

True for the Play Store, but not for side-loaded apps. Those I just try
them to see if they work.

There's another reason I leave automatic APP updating TURNED OFF on my
phone and tablets. I sometimes dislike the current version of an app
(like when they add advertising) so I go back to an earlier version and
don't want it updated.

I keep an archive of old Android apps I have used on my various Android
devices going back to 2013. Surprisingly some of those early apps still
work on Android 7.0 (and some don't). And many are bare basic apps that
run faster and IMO better than their current versions that are bogged
down with more "features" and fancier graphics (and ads).

Sounds like you think that's a problem. Why?

My Motorola Moto x4 was upgraded to 8.1 and I've had no problems. 
Supposedly it will be eligible for Android 9 within the next few 
months.

  "Samsung" (or any other (non-Google) brand for that matter) and
"updates" in one and the same sentence!? What's wrong with this
picture!?

  FWIW, both my Samsung devices, tablets, got exactly *one* version
update! Whoopie! :-(

Dunno. Plenty of updates on my original Nokia 5, which shipped with 
Nougat and is now on 8.1 and still receiving Google's monthly security 
patches.

  So that's only one *version* update.

  However, having said that, your example looks promising, because
Samsung hardly supplies security updates - I got only two - so getting
monthly security updates is a good sign, so maybe Nokia will also be
better with version updates than most other (non-Google) brands.
Nokia has always been a bit special, so hopefully they're also special
in this respect.

My Xiaomi MI A1 gets system Android update about every month since
 Oct2018. Originally A7.1, now 8.1 and probably going for Android
 P as well.

  We - at least the OP - were talking about *version* updates, not
security or other non-version updates.

  So you got one version update (same as I got for my Samsung tablet, as
I said in the part you snipped). Fingers crossed that you'll get the
next one to 9.X (Pie).

Language issue here :-)

What I see as a problem is if the phone stays at 7 and is not upgraded.
Otherwise, if the choices are one phone with Android 7 and another with
8, other aspects similar, I'd go for the Android 8. Version 7 is old.

However, if the intention is to use the phone for a year or so and then
buy another one, it doesn't matter. The A8 is a good phone.


Motorola, which the brand I'm using, is more likely to upgrade their
phones than Samsung, because they do very few customizations.

  My version number is incremented each year, so I become better and
better [1].

[1] And I was already perfect at version 0, so they tell me.

The former is true, the latter unproved.

Here "perfect" is in the eye of the manufacturer.
And "version 0" is generally known as "alpha release",
with most bugs showing up (much) later.

  I try to go with the flow of this group, so I claim all kinds of
totally unsubstantiated stuff.

  As an HP instrument firmware designer said: "I didn't know we were
allowed to have bugs in our code!".

Anybody got any opinions on the Sony Xperia phone?

Depends on your Motorola. My Motorola Droid Turbo 2 (Verizon re-branded
Moto X Force) is currently running 7.0 and was last updated almost a
year ago (11-21-17).

However since it still seems to serve me well what is it in 8.x that I
badly need?

Nothing. See me answer to Yousuf minutes ago for the reasoning :-)

I have no experience with either but if you go to XDA Developers you 
should be able to read lots of comments about either.  They will be 
mostly on US versions but you can still learn a lot about any problems 
a phone may have.

Boy Genius reports is another fairly good source of information as is 
Howard Forums.

Or you could just Google each phone and see what pops up?
