   The two longest lasting phones I have owned were a Blackberry at about 5   
   years and an iPhone 14 Pro at 3+ years. In between a series of Android   
   phones. The 14 Pro will do for at least another 1-2 years. The wife has   
   an iPhone 14, same story.   
      
   Android tablets were tried for something like 10 years. All were   
   disappointing. Slow, limited updates, and clunky OS. My iPad experience   
   has been the exact opposite. Frequent updates, plenty fast, and   
   consistent OS. The current oldest is Gen 7, 6 years old, and running   
   great with a fully patched OS. None of my Samsung tablets came even close.   
      
   IMHO Apple deserves the price premium. Good hardware, incredible   
   support, durable. No regrets.
