Last year, Google said that it will roll out monthly security updates to Nexus phones and tablets for three years from their respective launch dates, and platform updates for “at least two years.” The search giant is now listing concrete timelines for when support will end for each Nexus phone and tablet, including the Nexus 6P and 5X:
| Device | No guaranteed Android version updates after |
|---|---|
| Nexus 5X | September 2017 |
| Nexus 6P | September 2017 |
| Nexus 9 | October 2016 |
| Nexus 6 | October 2016 |
| Nexus 5 | October 2015 |
| Nexus 7 (2013) | July 2015 |
| Nexus 10 | November 2014 |
The Nexus 6P and 5X will continue to get updated until September 2017, which is when we should we be starting to see Android O. Google has also talked about software updates for Android One phones, stating:
All partners have committed to giving software updates for at least 18 months after the phone’s launch. All Android One phones will get at least one major software update and several smaller security updates.
