Samsung hopes to “fast track the security patches over the air when security vulnerabilities are uncovered”. We believe these important steps will demonstrate to LG customers that security is our highest priority”.Īs for the other South Korean giant, we already know that Samsung will implement a new update process once a month. In an email interview with WIRED, LG said they “will be providing security updates on a monthly basis which carriers will then be able to make available to customers immediately. Mobile carriers will still be the ones to release them to device owners.

LG will release monthly updates but not directly to the customers. As one of the biggest Android security concerns today, this is something the whole Android community must focus on. Good thing Google and Android device makers are working hard to make sure that security patches will be ready. Monthly over-the-air updates should be expected from big names like Samsung and Google as we mentioned last week and now we learn LG is also working on one.
