Or get several models previous, bought used. I had a Pixel 3 I bought for very little on ebay.... Now I have a Pixel 7, from a deal with my wireless company (which will of course cost me over time). And at least for my use, I can't say the 7 is any more useful or nice to work with than the 3.
I bought my pixel 4xl at the end of 2019 used and it's still going strong. There was an issue that affected the batteries that Google fixed under warranty, but other than that I see no reason for me to need to get a new phone for a couple more years. It's plenty snappy and the camera is still good enough.
The only argument would be software support. Getting newly discovered flaws fixed would be ideal, but many manufacturers don't do that for nearly as long as we should reasonably expect them to.
I think the same about my pixel 5, minus the battery haha
