For sure, the iPhone is going to age better due to it having more powerful hardware and longer suloftware updates. If I know I’m going to keep my phone for more than 3 years, then I’d pick the iPhone.

Speaking from experience here. I know people who are still using iPhone 6S Pluses from 8 years ago.

depends on the usage.

That’s because most people don’t need anything more than a mid ranger. They get sucked into all the marketing and status (in some cases).

The one thing though is that the flagship SoC tend to slow down less than mid rangers over time.
