I can't agree at all. At least Apple patch some issues on older unsupported devices. It is likely they have some reasons for choosing what to patch and when. e.g risk assessment, knowledge of what exploits are occurring etc. They have teams constantly working at this.

Android on the other hand has a lot of devices with no patches at all. Pot luck and pray that Google saves the negligent manufacturers via play store patching.

If someone has to choose between the two (using an outdated phone), it's sensible to stick with Apple.

I myself use android and still recognize what Apple does right.
