Google promises OS and security updates for the Pixel 6a for 5 years from when it first went on sale on the Google Store in the US, in July 2022. That points to updates until about July 2027. Google does not publish a date for each device, so treat this as an estimate.
For the Pixel 6a, that promise covers Android OS updates, security updates and Pixel Drops. Pixel 8 and later phones get seven years of updates; the Pixel 6, Pixel 7 and Pixel Fold families get five. The Pixel 6a’s five-year period started when it first became available on the Google Store in the US, in July 2022.
