Bricked is when the device gets damaged in a way that makes it only useful as an actual brick.
Lack of upgradeability to the latest OS is not bricked.
Generally you get 6-8 compatible major releases and hardware is not end of lifed until it's 10 years or older.
Curious which model you had that you were only able to upgrade for a few years.
Was it like super NOS or a refurb when you bought it?
