Did phone manufacturer finally decide to keep supporting their models after the first year/couple of years? Or did the "likely lifetime" of a smartphone dropped below that in the meantime?

If anything, my experience with "manufacturer support" on android isn't particularly stellar, with the only outlier being my current Samsung XCover, which is kinda cheating due to the thing being a rugged phone targeting companies and not the average joe, so the thing is built to last, both hardware and software side.

On the other hand you do have a couple (maybe even three!) companies that offer linux pre-installed on their machines.
