Apple supports hardware for a minimum of 5 years after device production ends. The larger memory models (32 & 128 GB) were only discontinued 2 years ago and the original smaller memory models (16 & 64 GB) 4 years ago.

As for iOS support and updates, Apple has no published policy on how long they support the OS for any device.
