We have plenty of history here... so the answer is "somewhere around 5 years".
Example: iPhone 6. Released 2014, last sold 2016, lost new OS support in 2019. It's the newest iPhone that isn't compatible with AirTags. And with AirPod Pro and Pro Max you can only use it with regular Bluetooth, not the enhanced Apple proprietary version.
AFAICT the 6 to 6S upgrade involved doubling the RAM from 1 to 2GB, and the CPU improvement was almost doubled (+70%). The pace of raw improvement has slowed a great deal since then.
