Android user here from scrolling too long on “Everything.” Sometimes I wonder how much of that is due to price difference, so to speak. So far as I’m aware android has a bigger range in phone prices. If you get a cheaper phone, odds are reasonable it won’t last as long.
This is anecdotal of course, but I tend to go for the more expensive models, and thus far the only issues I’ve had have been directly my fault. I’m currently entering year 3 of my Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and it still works flawlessly. Granted the battery life is starting to wither, but that’s more or less to be expected with li-ion batteries. Obviously that’s not 5 years yet, but I don’t really doubt my phone could make it that far at this point.
Great, but there are no flagship Androids that get the latest OS for five years. And Samsung fans are the absolute worst as far as coming up with BS accusations towards Apple. Apple is doing a lot more than the competition is to support their phones longer.
If you want an iPhone on a budget, there are plenty of older models out there that still get the latest iOS for a couple more years, or you can get the SE.
