I've been using Android since 2012 and I only have one phone that doesn't run Android 5 or later, which is the Galaxy Nexus from 2011. That phone famously (and controversially[1]) stopped getting updates after less than 2 years. My other phones, a Moto X (2013), a Moto E (2014), a Blackberry Priv (2015), a Moto E4 (2017), and a Moto G7 Power (2019) are all on 5.0 or later. I know not every manufacturer is as good as Motorola at providing system-level software support but I think supporting phones from ~2014 and later is a good enough baseline these days. The last time Google released Android version stats[2] (about a year ago?! WTF!) they showed devices running 4.4 and below at only 10% of total devices.
