Are there any downsides in using Motorola Nexus 6 as a tablet? Except smaller screen and the lack of an SD slot.

I shot an email to Samsung India if there are any tablets that could get updates for the next two versions of Android after marshmallow.

Your question
Hi,

We have several tabs in our office including Samsung. All Samsung tablets are still stuck with JellyBean (4.1/4.2) and none of them got any major OS update. We are providing Salesforce.com implementation to our clients and require latest/recent Android version to test Salesforce app for each implementation. We are now looking to get a new batch of tablets for the same but we cant find any Samsung tablets with 6 (not even 5.1). All are still at 5.0 only, and none of the seem to have received any update to 5.1 over the last year.

Will it be a poor decision to purchase a Samsung tablet at this moment? Can we hope to get updates to at least the next two versions of Android (after 6.0)?

I later got a call from a Samsung rep explaining how they are involved in updating the s7 series and then they will be involved in the note series, then the tab A.
But he failed to convincingly recommend buying any tablets from Samsung. I just directly questioned if there are any tablets currently in line that will receive 2 major updates after 6, for which the answer was still murkily negative.

Samsung devices get 2 major updates, that it....... And I'm talking about their flagship devices.... Take the example of S5, it was launched with KK & has been updated to M, but it won't receive anymore updates
