Also your comment about desktops is untrue as iMacs dating as far back as 2009 will run High Sierra. It seems Apple support desktops (and laptops) for longer than they support phones.
My 2011 MBA will be compatible with HS, and one of my iPads and my daughters' 6 & 6S will be compatible with iOS11. That's great from a consumer perspective. The fact that I'm upgrading none of the devices to HS nor iOS11 is irrelevant. The fact that I can is what should be appreciated.
The people who obtain the second-hand iPhones (and other iOS devices) weren't likely to buy new anyway and meanwhile they also become immersed in the ecosystem and become Apple oriented when they do work up to a higher disposable income level and start buying iPhones firsthand themselves. You see this all the time with kids who get iPhones as hand me downs.
There are some kids in my family who get old Samsungs as hand me downs. The experience is not the same. I'm a huge fan of Samsung flagships and I expect to get at least two years out of my current Galaxies. Beyond that, I'm not confident of the support my Galaxies will receive. The hardware is amazing and I love Samsung's version of Nougat. I just don't know how viable my phones will be as hand me downs to any interested family members. I have no clue what the resale value might be. I'm not going to even try as I intend to use them in VR and that usage will probably shorten their lives anyway.
And I was talking to my cousin's kids about their hand me down Samsungs and all they could talk about was how lucky the other kids in the family got the old iPhones. They want iPhones when they start earning their own spending money. I'm kind of sad about that. I really like the Samsung phones. I'd like to see them get more popular and keep Apple on its toes. The competition is a good thing for all of us.
