Can anyone comment on how well Google supports their phones 2, 3+ years out? What's their obsolescence history compared to Apple? Thinking of moving over...

I have a Pixel 2XL and it is still supported. I am participating in the latest android beta without any known-to-me model-specific issues.

They list it here: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/4457705?hl=en-G...

Thanks -- ah, so it is significantly less than Apple. 3 years guaranteed, versus 5+ years. (well, not that I'm likely to keep my phone for 5+ years)

The Pixel line sees almost ubiquitous Lineageos support.
