GrapheneOS aims to maintain update support for at least 5 years (from their FAQ). GrapheneOS still supports Pixel 5 for example (released 5 years, 8 months ago), Google stopped updating that model in Nov. 2023. GrapheneOS likely won’t maintain support for older models forever, but for older devices they can extend the life a good few years past Google’s end of support.
ETA: In fairness to Google, their support window on newer models is a lot better. From https://endoflife.date/pixel, for Pixel 8, 9 & 10 series they’ve committed to 7 years of Android updates. My Pixel 7 is only getting 4 years of updates, hence my interest in GrapheneOS.
