Before anyone gets too excited, they're going to use RISC-V for watches and such (Wear OS), but it's still a big step towards having Android phones use RISC-V and major adoption. Maybe RISC-V is closer than we thought!

considering Qualcomm is the biggest obstruction to getting longer term updates for android, I don't think I'll jump on this.

Could you share a link or explain further? I've had no idea but don't pay all that much attention to mobile in general.
