They will give you updates for about 2 years. Every device I had was upgraded from 13 to 14. I personally don't have a problem with it. Sometimes new features you don't like so you stick with the old.

I couldn't care less about the major versions, but announcing they'll stop with the security fixes three years after the release date for a device that I can't update reliably any other way was a deal breaker for me.

That and the fact that they, too, are just too damn huge. Yes, even the 5 and 10. No, their aspect ratio doesn't fix that. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Everyone has their things to look for, I have the 1, it's slightly larger than the 5, but for me it was headphone jack and SD card slot.

I gave up on expandable storage and a headphone jack. Bought a nice portable player with a DAC, but I respect dying on the hill.

No shame in that! We gotta have something to die for these days. Haha
