Any idea why it only happens to iPhones? I don't think I've noticed this on Androids, where the only impact of longevity is the lack of updates from the manufacturers and then Google Play Services starts to fill up the storage with updates.

It does happen to Androids. Its just that by the time it matters, the manufacturer has abandoned it.
