Urgent warning: Older Android devices are vulnerable to data hacking.

Google warns that over 40% of Android phones running older versions are vulnerable to attacks, and users should check immediately to avoid serious security risks.

According to Gulfnews, Google has confirmed that more than 1 billion Android devices worldwide are at risk of being hacked.

The reason is that devices running Android 12 or earlier no longer receive security patches.

Only 57.9% of devices currently run Android 13 or higher, while the latest Android 16 only accounts for 7.5%.

Phone models released in 2021 or earlier are the most severely affected.

Even a new mid-range Android phone is more secure than an abandoned older flagship.

Google Play Protect only scans for malware; it cannot replace critical system patches.

Samsung has confirmed that the Galaxy S21 series has stopped receiving updates, leaving users vulnerable to attacks.

Google recommends checking your Android version; if it's below 13 and cannot be upgraded, you should consider changing your device.
