      I think it’s because Fairphone is offering 5 years OS + extra 3 security to make 8, and not just 8 OS/security updates

        No, Fairphone has a Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC, as a result they cannot in practice provide vendor updates for more than 5 years. They will just “increase” the version number and just provide typical android security patches.
