I have no idea how many people consider it, but Samsung made a comitment to offer 4 years of software support, and flagships one year more [1]. Few years ago it was not like that, I don't remember there were official promises and you typically got a year or two of updates. Until recently, long support was always mentioned as a big plus for iPhones. Now every review I look mentions years of support as a big thing. I also see quite often on forums "I still have year of updates for my device, I'll skip this year's model" so people do think about it. It's possible only techies look at these things (and read reviews and online discussions), but even so it's still better than it was.
