I still have an Apple 5s (I think) around the house that still "works", but I wouldn't call it supported. It does still receive security patches though, so that's something I guess.

OnHub was the predecessor to Google WiFi. Google touted the OnHub as a "future-proof" router, with 802.15 Zigbee and bluetooth onboard. They indicated that they would enable these features at some point in the products life. Google WiFi came out around 12 months after OnHub, and OnHub suddenly stopped receiving feature updates after that. Google continued with security patches, but that was about all I could recall getting. I'd be curious what other OnHub owners think about their purchase long-term. It certainly didn't feel supported after WiFi was released. I guess that goes back to my quality vs. quantity of support. It's great that they continued to push security updates for years later. It's the least they could to after they shafted everyone that purchased one of these.

Long-term history matters when it comes to establishing a trend in a company's behavior.
