    In effect, yes.

    5 years minimum software support after the device is no longer on the market.

    Presumably this phone will be on the market for two years (in the EU at least).

    Theoretically it could be less than 7 years if they only sold it for one year, of course, but even OEMs that release phones each year like clockwork tend to keep their previous model around for a while.
