I’ve been using the same iPhone Xs Max since Nov 2018 and it’s still smooth as butter. Not seeing a reason to upgrade other than when software stops being supported/updated.
Didn’t realize companies might drop support for phones older than 5 years.
Been super common in Android land for a long time. It’s only been recently that manufacturers have been committing to 7 OS generations / years of Android support.
