The Original Google Pixel Will Get One Final Update In December

'Google has confirmed to The Verge that it will release "one final
software update" next month for the original Google Pixel and Pixel
XL. From the report:

As of yesterday, it looked like the original Pixel was done getting
updates, as Google released its November security update for most
Pixel phones, but nothing for the Pixel or Pixel XL. Google tells The
Verge that the Pixels won't get that November update, but it says
December's "encapsulates a variety of updates" from the November and
December updates that were issued for other Pixels.

It wasn't too surprising to see that Google's original Pixels didn't
get yesterday's update. When Google announced the phones in 2016, the
company said they would get two years of guaranteed Android version
updates and three years of security updates, which is also reflected
on Google's support page. That said, Google surprised Pixel owners
earlier this year by letting them run Android 10, which is one more
year of Android than Google originally promised, and now, they have
one final update to look forward to as well. '
