Before I got my first iPhone five years ago, I always noticed that iPhone owners would drag it along for a long time, but really the phones are tanks. I remember switching Android phones every two years, because they quite literally started to decay. I think my last Android Phone I could have probably made last longer than two years, I still turn it on and play random games on it, and its still very responsive.
I assume they know just how long their customers keep their phones and maintain them accordingly.
