 Certification programs are designed to ensure all certified devices run an Android version with the required feature set for Teams and Teams Admin Center. Certification end dates are based on the Android version running on the device when it enters into the certification program. Our OEM partners are working to extend the lifetime of the certification by upgrading the Android version and recertifying, or by releasing new models that are state-of-the-art.
 
 Microsoft is committed to certifying devices on latest Android versions available for Teams devices as long as OEM partners and SoC manufacturers are able to meet all certification requirements in effect at the time device enters certification.
 
-After certification end date, Microsoft is committed to making efforts to support the most recent version of the Teams client on such devices for two years following the end of the certification period. 
-
-> [!Note]
-> Certification end dates are based on the Android version release date plus five years. Once the device passes the certification requirements and OEM partners provide the firmware that enables the upgrade to a newer Android version, the certification end date will be extended to match the new Android OS version release date plus five years.
+After certification end date, Microsoft is committed to making efforts to support the most recent version of the Teams client on such devices for two (2) years following the end of the certification period.
