I've been doing some checking on phones via YouTube videos and they point out that one of the advantages of the iPhone is that they support updates much longer than Android so that even old iPhones remain updated. One of the selling points of the iPhone is that they will remain updated for years, thus they will retain their value much longer.
It does seem that 2 years is a very short time to end updates. I wonder if I will have the same issue with my phone (a Samsung Galaxy A11) in the near future. As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, I've had issues that have caused me to consider returning to a flip phone although, after long searches through the settings, I've managed to mitigate some of the issue I've had. While I still have some irritants with it, it is a little better.
