And Apple does not abandon you after 2 major OS updates, like Google.

Which bit? Apple does fully support its phones for 4-5 years which means at
least 4 OS upgrades and then some security updates for several years after
that.

Google has upped its game recently and, I believe, 7 years of support for
new pixels. Not sure if that's OS upgrades as well or just security
updates.

 It's no longer shocking how ignorant all the Apple religious nutcases are.
Don't believe a word from these ignorant Apple nutcase religious zealots.
 Chris just spouted complete bullshit.
Which is easily refuted by the facts.

You've refuted nothing. How does anything you claim contradict what I wrote?

The fact is Apple was forced to admit last year that they never once, in
their entire history, fully patched more than just one release per
platform. https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/deployment/depc4c80847a/web
 That means only a single iOS release is supported, currently iOS 17.
And only a single macOS release is fully supported.

Facts are a pain aren't they? See below:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201222
You'll see that there have been six times this year alone when more than one release of iOS or macOS has been updated at the same time: 22nd Jan (macOS 12/13/14 & iOS 15/16/17), 5th Mar (iOS 15/16/17), 7th Mar (macOS 12/13/14), 21st Mar (iOS 16/17), 25th Mar (macOS 13/14).
That's a bit awkward for you.
Note that iOS 15 supports back to iphone 6 which was released in 2015. It launched with iOS 9 so has had *six* OS upgrades. Compare that to the original Pixel (from 2016) which got only three years support and three upgrades. Even the Pixel 5 which is less four years old is already not getting anymore upgrades after only three upgrades and is stuck on Android 14.
If someone wants a disposable phone, we know where to go don't we...
