But, if that is the case, consumers can choose to buy from someone else the next time they purchase a device.
Given the churn on devices, this would soon fix itself.
Since Samsung (for instance) sell a large number of devices still, I assume either, most purchasers never know or care that their device is not upgraded or, that it is, at least for long enough that the owner is satisfied. My personal view is that they look shabby after a while and that they break a little too easily, as well as android woes in general, but that is just me.
If I bought a particular make of car and the service or prices for spares etc. was gouging, I would buy another make the next time - which is essentially what I did a long time ago and settled for the make I use now.
If that make starts turning out unreliable rubbish, I would have to revisit - so far so good.
