I write this from a Pixel 4a I bought second hand a couple years ago for 75€. It is running LineageOS with MicroG, so no Google stuff on board anymore. It feels like the perfect tool and I can't imagine ever paying more for a phone. It already has everything I could whish for, including a great camera and a headphone jack. Sometimes enough really is enough.
The prices are insane though. $539 for a 6 Pro that has already received its last major update and is only getting 2 years of security updates. $629 for a 7 Pro that adds one more year of updates. Plus the 7 Pro can be bought new with 4 times the storage for less money.
That's fantastic news.
If only they would sell original replacment parts. At least batteries.
