Let me guess. You're one of the people who compared a full priced iPhone to an entry level android and were upset that the $150-200 device wasn't comparable? That's like buying a chromebook and expecting it to have the same specs as a top of the line Macbook (you have to find a device that has bang for buck, not be a cheapskate)
Also, you can shop around and find a device with a support lifetime shown on their website. Google does it. Samsung does it. Oneplus does it. Even fucking Motorola does it. If you install something like PostmarketOS, you can get a support lifetime after the manufacturer stops caring as well. Or install something like GrapheneOS on the Pixel line that's untethered from google. They have a support lifetime on their website too.
2 of them were Galaxy Notes and others were flagships as well. Quit being a douche.
Not to defend the antagonistic guy above, but you're either extremely unlucky or not being fully truthful. I've had nothing but Samsung flagships for over a decade and have had literally zero issues besides minor annoyances, especially with the Note line the last 5-6 years. iPhones aren't built poorly, so I won't rag on them. But to use your purely anecdotal evidence to declare Apple as offering a superior quality phone to all Android vendors, it feels dishonest as fuck.
lol now we know you're full of shit.
You got me, I never used a Oneplus phone. I have used Samsung, Pixel, and Motorola phones in the past though, (Note 9, S23, Pixel 9, Moto G5 and G6), and can confirm their support lifetimes were accurate. (I sold my S23 to buy a Pixel 9 to install GrapheneOS).
