Explain that
 Here are some reasons that I can postulate:
 1. Android device makers tend to introduce new features at a more rapid pace than Apple does for the iPhone. Apple meters out new features slowly to encourage updates but many of those features are not sufficiently attractive to warrant an upgrade.
 2. Apple removes features from their devices causing many iPhone owners to delay upgrades because they don't want to lose features.
    a)What are the best selling iPhones of all time? The 6/6+ and 6s/6s+, the last two models that had a headphone jack.
     b) A lot of U.S. iPhone users have stuck with the 13/13 Pro because they don't want to lose the physical SIM card slot.
 3. iPhones are more expensive than comparable Android phones so the Android owner is more willing to spend the money on an upgrade.
 4. Battery replacement on iPhones is relatively inexpensive and widely available and you get a recently manufactured battery, not NOS (new old stock) that has deteriorated.
 5. iPhone users care less about features like higher-quality music playback while Android users want the latest aptX or LDAC codec. Since Airpods don't support these codec anyway, there's no reason to worry about the phone having that codec.
 6. Carriers offer better upgrade deals on Android devices than iOS devices. You can often get a "free" Android phone, even on prepaid carriers, while iPhones have subsidy but much lower.
As a former long-time Android phone and tablet user and defender I can postulate too. Android feature roll-outs and OS versions happened slowly, if at all, and were very uneven across device brands. I never got more than one OS version update on the many HTC, Moto and Samsung devices I owned. I had to upgrade to get the latest, and even then new phones often did not have the latest OS installed.
I have had to replace a battery on my iPhone 14. That was because I tried wireless charging in the car that overheated the phone. The replacement was easy. I took it to the local Apple Store and they had it back to me in 2 hours. That was 6 months ago and battery life is still 100%. The cost? $0. AppleCare+ took care of it. No questions asked. I have owned iPhones and iPads since the iPhone 6s era. That's the only battery replaced spanning 8 years and 6s, SE and 14 Pro versions.
I'll never go back. There is no Android Store 15 minutes away. My phone and tablet get annual OS updates on the day they are released, and regular feature and security updates too that.
