    I mean, Apple has been ahead of the competition when it comes to phone longevity. The 6S got its final OS update last year. Android phones from 2015 aren’t getting first-party support in 2020, nevermind 2022. It’s nice that some Android manufacturers are finally saying that they’ll offer longer support for their devices, but I’ll believe that once said support is actually here.

    I’m supposing my Pixel 6 isn’t covered by said promise of support either.

      if you’re european, the fairphone lineup is a great option. the FP2 was released around 2016 and just ended sofware support in 2023. plus i believe they’ll try to sell them in the US.
