Nokia 3.4 and 5.4 receiving December patch

Strange things are happening lately with the monthly delivery of security patches to Nokia smartphones. While some of the latest and most expensive Nokia phones are still on the November patch at the very end of December, some older ones, like the Nokia T20 tablet and Nokia 3.4 and 5.4, are receiving the December patch. This is actually commendable if we consider that Nokia 3.4 and 5.4 are out of support according to the End of Life website. In fact, the official support for the Nokia 5.4 is ending on the first day of 2024 since the device was announced in December 2020.

The reason for the Nokia 3.4 to get the update two months after the official support has ended must be in the number of devices being used worldwide. But, correct me if I’m wrong.

Here are the details of the updates:

– Nokia 3.4 | 27.88 MB | December Security Update | available globally
– Nokia 5.4 | 33.84MB | December Security Update | available globally

 

To check for the update availability on your device, navigate to Settings > System > System Update > Check for Updates, and let us know in the comments if you’ve received it.
