I looked it up, and the extended security updates for Google Pixel is only a recent change:

Pixel 8: released in 2023, updates through 2030 Pixel 5: released in 2020, stopped getting updates in October 2023.

Looks like I hit a 'sweet spot' with my Pixel 4a (released in August 2020, guaranteed updates until November 2023)

I use a Pixel 4a as a second phone and consider Google’s approach to be rubbish…

3 years worth of updates is pretty shit… my son’s iPhone 5c got updates for over 5 years (and I think there were some security issues they patched after that even)

At the moment I’ve got a perfectly usable Pixel 4a that I’m going to have to replace as it’s not secure enough for work related stuff anymore
