    This is new development with Qualcomm’s chipsets and they’ve historically been extremely reluctant to sign contracts for long update support so I’m skeptical till proven otherwise. They’ve always been a super profit maximizing company and they’ve typically been the king of the hill for Android and still are for modems, so they have all the incentives to not sign such agreements or not honor them. We don’t know how strong these are. I’d be super happy to be proven wrong. I’ve worked (and still do) on the embedded side with devices built on QC chipsets and Qualcomm behave today as they did a decade ago.
