Many times manufacturer can choose to even underclock phones..yo gotta consider that overclocking takes up more energy..and manufacturer may choose to keep it lower to save battery...and in times re-release the same cpu higher clocked..
But if you want a PC example..the e6600 overclocked 40% easy..

I think he saying that a PC has active cooling technology while a cell phone has none. I agree with him that it's probably killing the electronics faster, but most of the time it'll last till the next upgrade, because we all want the newest toys as soon as they drop. Plus you have the underclock and optimizations to save battery life that you mentioned, so it might not be pushing the cpu to the max when overclocking...
