4) Software updates are a huge thing. When Samsung users have to take a wait-and-see approach to getting the latest features and if noted as coming to them, then wait 6 months or longer, is a big difference. Especially if you consider security or defect fixes a big issue. This has always been the big win for iPhone and Nexus devices. Shit breaks or is demonstrated as unsecure, bam update is quickly put out. Everyone else will see it at best 3 months later or worst never.

Samsung releases security updates on a monthly basis like every other Android manufacturer. And considering that Nexus 6 got delayed with its Android N update by a month, yea they aren't on time either.  And oh look, Nexus 6P is apperently not going to get the Google Assistant for quite a while either:

That's sneaky, it's bound to piss some Android manufacturers off, Google is witholding a software feature to leverage their hardware business. I guess Google doesn't care now that Windows Mobile is completely dead.
