I never understand this argument. How is an Android phone more obsolete than an iPhone after 3 months? Technology progresses just as fast in both cases.

I think he was referring to the fact that many Android phones don't receive updates after the first few months, whereas iPhones are typically receiving updates at least 2 years after release.

Fair enough. I assumed he was talking about being obsolete hardware wise.

I'll agree that Android updates aren't exactly timely, but saying they're abandoned completely after a few months is a bit unfair.

This show that it's not so unfair : http://theunderstatement.com/post/11982112928/android-orphan...
