For me, iPads (base model, non-Air/Pro) and iPhones seem to exist on opposite ends of the longevity spectrum. Never had an iPad last over 2-3 years without feeling sluggish and ready for an upgrade. Never had an iPhone since the 4 that felt sluggish when Apple stopped supporting it (5+ years).

My iPad is a 2018 iPad Pro and it still works great. It’s my most used computer by far. AFAIK, it’s still supported by Apple.

My phone is an iPhone 13 (2021) and I’ll probably upgrade in the next 24 months to get a better camera.

2018 is still fairly new.

I own a laptop from 2011 and it runs the latest fedora perfectly and is not limited at all performance wise as long as you don't try to run AAA games.
