Basis: manufacturer commitment

Samsung's UK spec API for SM-F966BZKNEUB lists "Security Update Period (Valid until)" as 31 July 2032. That is Samsung's own date, and it is the one shown; endoflife.date records 2032-07-25. Samsung states feature (OS) upgrades as a number of Android generations rather than a date, so no feature-update end date is shown (endoflife.date estimates 2032-07-25).
