When was the last time Apple released a radically different device ?

Ask differently how long was the original Apple Watch supported ? Or the original iPad ?

I don't think any of them had more than 2 or 3 years of suport as the hardware radically changed in the next revisions. Faulting Microsoft for failing to support a first gen innovative hardware concept for more that a few years is kinda harsh.

You are misinformed.

Apple Watch 1 had five years of OS upgrades. Watch OS 6 was the first to drop Series 1.

Last version of watchOS for the first apple watch was 4.3.2

Ok, thanks, so in fact they have all had more than “2 or 3 years of support”.
Apple Watch 1 is not the original Watch (yes, Apple namings)
