Vivo recently performed very poorly in the research company Counterpoint’s trust ranking for 2020. According to their findings, only 24 percent of the Vivo phones sold between Q3 2019 and Q2 2020 were updated to Android 10. A large percentage of phones remain on Android 9 Pie, and a significant chunk is stuck on Android Oreo as well. The company has also been called for inconsistency with its security patches.
