While "Apple bashing" may be popular, this is the reason that I would never change from the iPhone. When an iPhone update comes out, it is available free to download on your own. I used to have Windows Mobile phones, which were the best smartphones at the time (in my opinion), but updates were left to the providers, which for the reasons stated here, never happened....no surprise. With all due respect to borisb, I have never felt it necessary to wait for the contract to run out. I simply pay money, and get out of it that way.
