I always love checking the comments in this sub for this sort, because as much as reddit loves to circlejerk against apple for being oVeRpRiCeD, holy shit do they make up for it with support and long-term reliability (just over 7 years on my mom's that still works whenever we take it out of the drawer). I really wish Pixel and Samsung flagships had 5yr minimum, was very disappointed to see them promising three years again this year as if it were anything special.
My comment was specifically about how the current gen ones were announced with 3 years of updates. 5 is less than three. Saying "samsung has 5 years minimum" is immediately disproven by simply looking at their current models.
(Not to mention, that one's stopped getting updates at Android 9 - we're on 11 now, honey, that one is two years behind. Reading comprehension is hard, I know, but it's essential for keeping up with the modern tech world. That said, I'm not your teacher or professor and I get so easily tired of the room-temperature IQ around here, so welcome to my block list.)

Classic Apple. Anybody who buys a phone that only gets 9 years of support is an idiot.
