 Some credible studies suggest that iPhone's productive cycle will be good at the three year mark like Apple watch while the life cycle of series of OS developed by Apple,(OS X) and that of Apple TV will get an extension of about one year that is four years combined.

On concerning this issue,Apple quoted-"to model customer use,we measure the power consumed while it is operating in a simulated scenario.Usage patterns are specific to each and every product and are mixture of actual and modeled customer-use data.Years of usage after which are based on initial owners,are assumed to be four years for tv OS devices and OS X and only three years for iOS and watch OS devices."
