Honestly the Pixel 7 line looks really good here, especially with the possible upcoming discounts on Google's 25th anniversary if you live in Europe (see my other post). You might get one year less of guaranteed updates if you pick a Pixel 7 instead of a Pixel 8 but I guess paying almost double the price for just one year more of updates is kinda hard to justify.
You could also install a rom like LineageOS to get updates after google drops support
That will only get you OS updates, though. Vendor updates sometimes include security patches or bug fixes for the modem, etc., and you won't get those.
Most people don't care, but it's something to keep in mind about the security of EOL devices, even when they're running a different ROM.
