Last year, Vivo surprised everyone by rolling out the Android 15 update ahead of the curve—even beating Google’s own Pixel lineup. Now, the company is gearing up to do it again with Android 16.

If your Vivo device is included, Android 16 will likely be its final major software upgrade. That said, security updates should continue for some time after. But if you want to keep getting the latest features and improvements beyond Android 16, you might need to consider switching to a newer model next year.
Vivo’s Software Update Policy
Vivo has shown decent consistency in rolling out software updates, but its update policy still leaves room for improvement. One of the main issues is the lack of clarity—especially for mid-range and budget devices—making it difficult for users to know what to expect in terms of future Android versions.
On the other hand, Vivo’s premium devices benefit from quicker updates (like the recent Android 16 upgrade) and longer software support cycles. The company is slowly making progress in refining its update strategy, and recent moves to extend software support across more models are a step in the right direction. Still, it lags behind industry leaders like Google and Samsung in terms of transparency and long-term commitment.
