But, the problem is with older versions of Android, i.e., probably older phones, so people might be more motivated to get an updated phone, hence good for Skyworks?

While I welcome any good news for Skyworks and generally defer to Saul on anything investing, this feels like a little bit of a reach. I’d be surprised if this becomes significant enough to meaningfully impact stock prices.
Of course I’m often wrong about these things.
