Surprise! 10-year old Samsung Galaxy S2 running Android 11, check video

Usually, Samsung offers two years/generations of Android OS upgrades for budget and mid-range phones, while the flagships are now compatible with three. But what will be your reaction when you see a ten-year-old mobile phone running Android 11?

Well, this happened with the 10-year-old Samsung Galaxy S2 as the Android 11 has been installed on it. Of course, there is no point in thinking about an official version of the OS, but the hackers/developers used the LineageOS 18 with all the capabilities of Android 11.

Notably, the installation process is not very complicated and is described in sufficient detail in the video (attached below). Obviously, it’s a tough task to handle the upgraded Android 11 OS for a 10-year-old Exynos 4210 SoC-powered smartphone with just 1GB of RAM.

As result, the Galaxy S2 running Android 11-based LineageOS 18 has some user experience-related errors such as the response keys take a second to more to do the operation. Furthermore, if the user installs the GMS package, the phone gets slows down even more.
