Google Play can update the pre-installed apps without having Google account
When we launched the mobile, or after a reset to factory, nothing more turning it on for the first time, we found a welcome wizard that allows us to configure the device. In one of those steps, ask us to sign in with our Google account, but there are people who skipped this step for not having an account.
If you do not sign in with your Google account you are able to use Google apps, and that includes the Play Store, that you will not be able to download new applications to your mobile device, and most importantly, you also can’t update apps from the factory, but this last one is going to change.
