I was on my way to a new phone. Should I delete an android off my list?

There was also this Android vulnerability from three days ago:

Android Stagefright Flaws Put 950 Million Devices at Risk

The biggest problem with the Android OS philosophy is that Google made an early decision to depend on the carriers and device makers for providing system and security updates. . . and that can take months if they bother to provide them at all. It is not in their interest to do so, so then make little effort to push out upgrades or patches. The makers and carriers want their users to buy NEW Android phones with the newest version that has the patch on it rather than push out a patch or new upgraded Android version to older phones or devices.

I believe that Samsung is pushing out security updates to Galaxy SIII to S6 phones running Android 4.3 and later using the Knox security system. In short, if own a Samsung Galaxy SIII to S6 phone, you should get security updates to correct the security issues mentioned recently.
