Google says it will provide two years of Android OS updates, and three years of security updates, to its new Pixel phones - perhaps surprising, given that they cost the same as Apple's iPhones.
Google's new flagship phones are packed full of high-end specs including "the best smartphone camera ever", and priced at up to $869 - but they're not "made by Google" as it repeatedly claimed today.
