Okay, I know Android is not strictly Linux and so on, but I have the following problem.

I want to buy a smartphone or tablet and noticed the budget ones have either Android Oreo or Android 9 that will probably update to Android 10 on Nokia and Samsung devices.

If I choose say, a Alcatel tablet with Android Oreo, how long will it get security updates? They have cheap tablets, but if the version of Android have a limited lifespan, I would rather choose a cheap smartphone with Android 9, but it's smaller for my poor eyesight.
 


 
Android anything is good for about 3 years max and then time to buy a new one.

You are right Poorguy. I just noticed a special on a Nokia 2.2 at a local store. Stays up to date and the screen is not too small. Just right.
