    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
