Google might start shaming companies that take too long to update their Android phones - CNET

Sick of waiting for your phone to get the latest version of Android? So is Google, apparently. To help speed the process, the tech giant may start shaming companies that take too long to bring fresh versions of Android to their handsets.

Google already has a list that ranks manufacturers by how up-to-date their handsets are, Bloomberg reports. While this list is currently only available inteally -- and to the manufacturers themselves -- Google is reportedly plaing to make the list public.

In doing so, it will hopefully shine a spotlight on those firms that take too long in updating the phones.

Google is yet to respond to a request for comment.
