> The positive point being made about iphone is that it has a longer support duration.

How so? Apple iPhones have one year warranties, are notoriously difficult to repair, and Apple charges an arm and a leg to "repair" them (usually by basically forcing you to do a trade-in and buy a new phone). Apple products will also quickly degrade over iOS upgrades.

For example, my iPad Air 2 can barely browse the web with no other apps open.

How so? Apologies for not being specific, I was referring to support for security updates.
