Moto G34 will get 1 OS update, and 3-year Security Updates and the same is 2 and 4 for Redmi 12 5g as mentioned in the article. 

Just an extra note: Redmi 12 5G comes with Android 13 out of the box whereas Moto G34 comes with Android 14. So both phones will get up to the Android 15 update regardless.
