Imagine if you had to wait for HP or Acer to update your Windows PC. How terrible would that be. Nvidia, AMD and Intel stop making new drivers because they want to sell new chips, OEM stop making updates because they want to sell new machines. Truly crappy model.
But this is what we have with Android phones. Qualcomm is not compiling new kernels past 2 year because they want to sell new chips and OEM don't bother updating their phones because, hey, here's a new model!
