HMD Global, in its early days, built a reputation as one of the first manufacturers to push Android OS updates to its devices. And for those who wanted frequent updates to their software, this was a big selling point. Sadly, this image eroded over the years. Although HMD Global has moved to making its own branded devices, it no longer leads the pack in rolling out Android updates.
