<p>The Pixel 5a, Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a (5G) are 5th generation devices will
likely be supported longer than the 4th generation Pixel 4a. Pixel 4a (5G) is
not a variant of the Pixel 4a but rather is nearly identical to the Pixel 5a
and quite similar to the Pixel 5. We strongly recommend against purchasing
devices older than the Pixel 4a.</p>
<p>The Pixel 5a, Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a (5G) are 5th generation Pixels sharing
the same mid-range 2020 SoC. These devices have around 2 years before their
end-of-life date shortly after they receive Android 14.</p>
<p>The Pixel 4a is a budget device meeting the same security standards as the more
expensive flagship devices. You can read more on the differences between the hardware
elsewhere. Unlike the Pixel 3a, the Pixel 4a has a proper SSD which provides a much
better experience with the GrapheneOS exec-based spawning security feature.</p>
<p>Despite the misleading name, the Pixel 4a (5G) is not a variant of the 4th
generation Pixel 4a which has an older mid-range 2019 SoC. The Pixel 4a will
be end-of-life around 2 months before the 5th generation devices but will
receive far less extended support past end-of-life since it won't receive an
official release of Android 14 and has an older SoC / kernel branch aligned
with other 4th generation devices which will already have been in extended
support for almost a year at that point.</p>
