You're Missing Out on Hidden Android Updates
Yes, apart from the cascading OS updates through each manufacturer, there are also Google Play system updates which are firstly hidden away under the About Phone menu, and most weirdly of all, they don't auto install or even notify you of updates.
These are quite important actually, as they are generic app updates that Google rolls out across Android devices, and they get past manufacturers which no longer update some system apps. They also add new features to the Google Play Store and Google Wallet.
They do come out every month, but my experience is I don't see them monthly on my phone. However, if you leave it too long, I'be seen like three updates in a row that I've had to apply, so check again after you've applied one.
Interestingly, too, the linked article also gives a link to a page where you can see what each month's update has brought as a changelog.

You're Missing Out on Hidden Android Updates
You might be familiar with Android system updates, the which bring new Android versions and features to your smartphone. But you might not know about Google Play system updates, which bring important security and privacy features directly from Google. The thing is, Google doesn't prompt you about these, nor are these updates easy to find.
