Not that I consider Google to be a benchmark in this matter, or relevant to the conversation, but it's not a fair comparison. Android support, at least as it pertains to function and security, lasts a lot more than the average Android device. Network support has abandoned me earlier than the OS. Phones are in many ways rather short-lived.
However several Windows upgrades have left perfectly working computers unsupported. Computers can and do last many years, esp. those dedicated to specific stuff.
Having said that both companies do have a history of abandoning projects, and when it comes to some new web service it's hit and miss with either regarding long term support.
