Quite disagree it won't lag after five years. Usually phone can feel quite sluggish after one major update after three years lifespan.
Maybe exception to phone that using pure android os like pixel,one plus or nothing though.
Bro , i been using snapdragon 865 , snapdragon 888 , 8gen1 , 8gen2 , mediatek 9400+ now , the snapdragon 865 xiaomi 10t with 144hz stil buttery smooth for daily usage , as long as u using snapdragon flagship that manufacture by TSMC , u are good to go with over 5 year easily. Only the snapdragon 888 and 8gen1 give me more heat and high power consumption because this two chip was manufacture by samsung , other than that it stil super smooth for daily usage.
The reason if u feel your phone drop performance wasn't because of SoC , might be your battery health drop lower than 80% , at that point , ur phone performance will starting give u trouble, what u need to do is just replace new original battery, and you will surprise that your phone will suddenly come back the performance.
