does apple do this with their updates?

i'm specifically refering to an acer iconia i bought in 2017 that no longer get android support. i'm sure there's work around but it's already slow as shit lol.

Yea, iPhones are only good for a couple years. Then they slow down and go to shit.

Yeah, but I have never used a phone for more than three years anyway. The tech advances and I want something new by that time

Depends on the phone. I've kept flagship phones for like 5-6 years pretty easily without slowdown. Battery issues or having legitimate upgrades available at that point are what makes me get s new one.

My Google pixel 2 xl is still kicking strong. It's only been 1234 days without an update but it still works as a mini tablet.

my XS is still fine.

though legit might upgrade to a 15 if the incredibly high likelihood of USB C charging is true. fuck having to dig through cables to find a goddamn lightning.

Yes.

Because each device is pretty unique. And batteries are like tires, they wear out.

I had the pixel 2. I would still be using it if mine didn't break beginning of the year. I can attest to it being great.

Now I got the Google pixel 5 since it was another phone I don't have to spend 2k on (most I've ever spent is 190 on this one).

I'm still using a Galaxy S5. It can't play modern games all that well, but I've got staples I enjoy on it already regardless and most of the "good" mobile games are gacha trash anyway.

Had to replace the battery a few times, but since it's an older phone I could still do that.
