Still have my iPhone 10 pro I got for free from my old job like 4 years ago. There has been absolutely nothing hardware-wise that has been introduced that makes me want to upgrade.
Maybe customers are feeling like I have for the last several years and can’t justify such an ungodly expensive for no comparable return in this shit economy.
I’m finally upgrading my excellent XS Max to a 16 because I want more space and 120h. But damn I love that iPhones are still supported and fast as shit after six years.
APPARENTLY it can play more than 30 hours of battery playing video, though, which is insane. I haven’t tested it yet, waiting on cases and screen protectors, but I’m excited. My XS Max is getting about eight or nine hours of screen time before I need to charge it now that it’s six years old.

Apple be like “shit, we had a solution for that but we can’t use it anymore…”
They still have their backup solution: Security patches end after 5 years and you can’t install an alternative OS like most Android phones.
Bad news for them, most people couldn’t care less about those
It matters for phones used for work though… also eventually apps in general will be incompatible or not function correctly
Full iOS upgrades are longer than that… my XS max is six years old and fully supported still.
