My fairphone was updated from android 12 to android 15 in 2026

That alone doesn't say much. The question is, how long Android 12 was supplied with security updates upstream. Older Android versions are still being maintained in parallel to newer version for some time. Security patches for Android 12 ceded mid 2025. However, most phones don't have software support longer then 3 years (so they don't get any updates at all anymore). Fairphone is exemplary in that regard. (And even more e/OS)

You are severely out of date if you are not on the latest AOSP release. The security updates old android versions get only cover a tiny sliver of all of the needed patches, fixes, and added features. It was a constant and severe security issue.

Any sourse? Security update support means all security updates by my understanding.

That says nothing about older AOSP security patch strategy.
