So which company apart from Google deliver quick os or security updates to their phones..? Not only for the high-end flagship but also their mid tier phones....??

Nokia and a lot of the Android One OEMs deliver timely updates to their phones.

 

My Nokia 7 Plus, a midrange phone, is getting 9.0 sometime this month.

Look at XDA and see which roms has weekly/month release cycles, this will need to unlock bootloader and have custom recovery. In most case won't void your warrenty as most of phone allow you relock your bootloader

 

From off the top of head: oneplus,essential maybe Motorola. or any Android One Phone.

 

Personally, security updates won't help much if someone got hand of your phone physically but most phone these day already have majority of public vulnerability patched.

 

Also what is actual "mid tier" budget for you(dollar amount)?

Nokia's update is quite fast.
Or you can also go for android one phones like the MiA1 or MiA2.
Asus is quite fast too nowadays.

If you’re looking at mid tier phones I’d recommend the Nokia 6.1 or Xiaomi Mi A2. If you’re looking at flagship phones then any major brand should get you covered for at least 2 years. 

 

But honestly, iPhones are awesome for updates and security.
