   Oh, Arlen! You've been doing well lately, but now regressed to your old   
   ways.   
      
   We've been through this. You're comparing your "free" entry level android   
   with a very much non-free premium iphone. We all know you got an almost   
   free iphone at around the same time so you also know you should be   
   comparing your $35 galaxy A-32 to your $58 (iirc?) iphone 12 (mini?).

   Alslo FACTS:   
      
   Your galaxy is no longer supported by Samsung (since February) and that   
   iphone - if you still had it - is still fully supported by Apple. And   
   likely will be for another two years. Looks like if you wanted a phone with   
   longterm support you returned the wrong one.   
      
   The link above puts it really well:   
   "Some iPhones have received security updates six or more years after the   
   initial release, which is far more support than the vast majority of   
   Android devices receive."
