The Galaxy Note 20 was the last device in the Note series; it was introduced back in 2020 with Android 10 preinstalled. Later, as it promised to get three major updates, it gradually grabbed all three updates in the form of Android 11, Android 12, and Android 13 sequentially. Now, it is no longer eligible to get any new major updates, but it is still eligible to get some more security updates in the future.
