I'm guessing they don't update every month, so how long do you have to wait until the next security update?

I just Googled the version numbers of the previous updates and some had May and others had July security updates. So it probably won't be too long until the next updates are released.

Yes they do, I have receive updates every month on Xperia XZ2, updated last night. But because it's not a Google phone, most should get the updates middle of the month earliest for unlocked phones.

Can't speak for other manufacturers.
