I had Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 5, and both Nexus 7s. I tried really hard to stick to it for exactly your reason, but all those devices stopped getting updates long before they stopped working anyway. Pixel is a ridiculously expensive thing and I don't trust it will get more than just this year's android.
