LG Software Upgrade Center opened in April 2018īut despite this initiative, the company still is one of the slowest OEMs when it comes to rolling out not only major Android OS upgrades but also minor security patches to its devices.īy the look of things, there won’t be any major changes to this reputation, meaning the likes of LG V60 ThinQ may be first to the update but in Q4 2020 or thereabout.
