The two brands both outperformed each other in three different categories. Samsung phones tended to have a longer battery life, higher refresh rates and superior camera quality, helped by models, such as the Galaxy S22 Ultra.
The average iPhone lifespan is 4-10 years. Apple models generally last much longer than what is expected of most smartphones, which typically only last two to four years. iPhones are also considered to have the highest lifespan among all smartphone brands in the industry.

Since Android is an open-source platform, it offers more freedom and customization options than iOS. You can customize almost anything on your Android device, from how your home screen looks to how you interact with your phone.
Samsung tends to offer four OS updates and five years of security updates, while Apple averages six OS updates per year. Regarding software support, Samsung offers up to four OS updates and five years of security updates for their flagships, including the Galaxy S series, Z series, and select A series devices.
iOS. Generally, most iPhone devices will receive system and security updates for five to seven years after releasing. Android devices have a much shorter period, only receiving these updates for 2-3 years after the release of a device.
Another major advantage that iPhones have over Samsung phones is the longevity of the devices. Although Samsung now offers four years of major Android updates for its flagships and mid-range phones, iPhones can easily last for five to six years. However, there's one important caveat to this.
Most people upgrade their phones every two to three years. By then, the battery starts to become bothersome and Android phones stop receiving updates. It's also usually enough time for tech companies to introduce some new features you might want on your next phone.
