It’s a fact, I said OS updates which you conveniently left out...Sure you get security updates for a few years but full features OS updates are only promised for two years.......
You said: paying for a device to be dropped like a bad habit a year or two down the road. Basically you implied Samsung's Galaxy S smartphones can be completely abandoned after a year.
And in terms of OS features Samsung's UI is years ahead of anything from Apple and even in comparison to stock Android so not getting a lot of new OS versions isn't really a huge deal. I would say security updates are more important.
 
security updates last 4 years on android flagships and 2 years of software updates. The people who do love tech though won’t keep their phone beyond 2 years though, right? So really you’re right that security updates I would say is more important.

One UI years ahead? Lol I laughed way too hard at that.
