Heat pumps are basically ACs with refrigerant lines that run both ways to allow for heating and cooling.
They are still pretty big units though. What do you want to know about them?

For some brands the condensing units on the outside don't look visually any different between a cooling only AC unit or a Heat/Cool heat pump.

which one lasts longer? heat pumps or traditional AC's? i heard your average AC unit only lasts like 5-7 years and will need replacement.

Reliability would not be significantly different. Heat Pumps are just AC units with a special valve that lets them run in reverse (aka, "reversing valve"), that's really the only major difference.
Here's a good video on it:

Whoever you heard the 5-7 year lifespan from is an idiot.
With proper maintenance there's no reason these units couldn't run for decades.

Been using negative/positive air pressure effect with the AC in the media room. One adjacent window open in a room with no other doors or window open. At night time, it gets scary cold.
