What a disingenuous arguement.
You said you paid more for an iPhone, which means you were buying cheap Android phones and then complaining that they don't last. Well yeah, because they're cheap.
You can buy Android phones that make iPhones look like the budget option if you want to, I'm not advising it but it's possible.
Not necessarily. iPhones used to be more than pretty much every Android flagship phone.
I'd say even cheap Androids can last long: Samsung A series receive 4 OS updates and after updates are over, you can get a few more years with last supported OS until battery or app compatibility becomes a problem.
It was one S21, S22 and a Pixel 5 or 6. I didn’t overpay for the mux delux version, just the basic one.
