How we decide

Just two questions. Does it still get security updates? (date published by the maker when there is one, otherwise estimated and labelled as such; less than six months left counts as over). Does a model do clearly better for your budget? (at least 15 more points on your profile score, computed from our measurements). We earn nothing when you keep your phone, and we say so anyway.
