But with Apple, you get 6+ years of OS updates and support. The latest version of iOS runs on iPhone 6S released in 2016. Samsung recently started promising “at least 4 years” of security updates, but don’t expect that 4 year old device to get the latest Android OS.

- sundvor 5y agoAt 3.5 years since release, my brother's Note 10 was just upgraded to Android 11 - a major upgrade which will extend the life of the phone also quite literally thanks to Lenovo style charging limits. The Note 10 was released in August 2019. By Apple standards getting a major OS upgrade at this point is nothing exceptional however in the Android world it's a stand out - and is also proof of Samsung's claim. (Lenovo let me limit the max charge % many a year ago on my X1 Carbon, I've been wondering why phone manufacturers have lagged behind on this. Here is locked to 85% vs Lenovo's more flexible configuration).
