I can barely use my iPhone 16E after the liquid glass update so I will say for me, it was one year.

That's nuts. My iPhone 13 actually feels quicker after the iOS 26 update (and this is the first time I think I've said that about an iOS update since it was iPhoneOS / single digits)

Part of the issue with the 16E is that is is using a binned A18 chip. when I heard it was using the A18 chip I decided to buy it, but it seems the GPU sucks, and Glass is so GPU intensive so...

It was fine without liquid glass, but I unfortunately missed the downgrade window,
