Android fans are so ignorant. Apple phones are supported 2-3 times longer, but you yell at apple online…
Knocking Apple on a subject about Apple isn't supporting Android. This isn't Red vs Blue. Also, Android isn't a company. Apple can use Android if they wanted to, but they won't. Mainly because Google created it first, and not them. Google made good Android phones pre-Nexus5x and then their products became a liability. It appeared they would break down right after their warranties expired. They even got sued for it.
After that, I heard people found more cost effective investments in One+ and I had decent success with Motorola. It's pretty much a gamble and an issue that affects the whole industry. The "2-3 times longer" doesn't match my experience as I have both in my household. The situation with Apple is that they may "support" their devices for 5 or so years, but on the last two years you watch your system slow to a crawl and lose battery life as they release updates for the iOS operating system with the newer models in mind--basically hurting your phone instead of improving it.
Generally, I replace our phones on average every 3-4 years, regardless of OS or manufacturer. The exception is a Nexus 5x that somehow didn't die and is still being used. I consider it retro now.
Wouldn't say I'm ignorant or a "fan" but what would you know?
People always did this: "Sega is better than Nintendo!" "Nuh uh!"
Imagine you didn't have to pick a side. Or even that there are more than two choices. Even better if you figure that you can choose all of them.
I'm kind of disappointed because you usually display intelligence in your comments.
