It can't have a longer life than something that's repairable and upgradable.

Even if we imagine Apple used the highest quality components, which they most certainly didn't, anything dying means you need to completely replace the internals of your device. It's like saying a car that needs an engine replacement because of a dead spark plug can have a long life.
