I've had 3, 4a, 6pro, and 8pro.

8pro is the best device, but not as cheap as you are looking. Avoid the 6 and 6 pro. Overheat like crazy. 3 was amazing and the 4a was fine , but the 3 has a batter camera.

I've had 2, 5, and now a 7. All great phones.

Are you me? Same progression.

I didn't have issues when I still used them, well, using the 7 to type this. But I gave them to my girlfriend when I switched to a new one and she didn't have much luck.

The Pixel 2 after a year started to have issues in cold weather, it would just shut down, no matter how much battery was left.

The Pixel 5 she is using now has a power button issue. It gets stuck from time to time and can lead to something that looks like a bootloop. Then you need to get it unstuck and its fine again.
