If I didn't drop my almost 2 yr old 8x in the sink I think it would have lasted 3 yrs, easy. It was a solid phone and I never had a problem with it (except it wasn't water proof if that counts).
But, back to the OP's question. I'm not sure what phones are offered where you live. Futhermore, I'm not sure anyone can predicted a certain phone will last 3 years. I think just about any of them would if you take care of it. My friend is still on a WP7 phone and has no plans of changing soon. I like the HTC phones but If I had to give you advice I'd suggest one of the Lumia that is in your price range. I think they will have the better chance of support and as long as you take care of it, should last three years.
