Just as we reported that the original Google Pixel hadn't received the latest Android security patch, we get word that the December update will be the last for the first-generation Google Pixel and Pixel XL. The final software update will come with several fixes and security patches. It comes as no surprise that Google ends support for the device. The company promised two major Android software updates and three years of security updates. The Pixel and Pixel XL exceeded its lifespan when it received Android 10 recently. Now, we don't know if Google will follow the same policy with the Pixel 2 and Pixel 3. Frankly, only time will tell if the extended support is part of a new strategy for the company.
