<h3><a href="#recommended-devices">Which devices are recommended?</a></h3>
<p>The recommended devices with the best hardware, firmware and software
- security along with the longest future support time are the Pixel 4, Pixel 4
- XL, Pixel 4a, Pixel 4a (5G) and Pixel 5. We strongly recommend against
- purchasing older devices.</p>
-
- <p>On the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, support for fingerprint unlock as a secondary unlock
- mechanism has been removed and replaced with IR-based 3D facial scanning. GrapheneOS
- plans to extend secondary unlock support with the option of 2-factor authentication
- using a secondary PIN or passphrase required for fingerprint / face unlock. The Pixel
- 4a has a fingerprint scanner instead of the dual infrared face scanning cameras.</p>
+ security along with the longest future support time are the Pixel 4a, Pixel 4a
+ (5G) and Pixel 5. We strongly recommend against purchasing older devices. The
+ Pixel 4a (5G) and Pixel 5 will likely be supported for at least a bit longer
+ than the Pixel 4a.</p>
<p>The Pixel 4a is a budget device meeting the same security standards as the more
expensive flagship devices. You can read more on the differences between the hardware
elsewhere. Unlike the Pixel 3a, the Pixel 4a has a proper SSD which provides a much
better experience with the GrapheneOS exec-based spawning security feature.</p>

+ <p>The Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL have comparable security but won't be supported
+ as long. On the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, support for fingerprint unlock as a
+ secondary unlock mechanism was replaced with IR-based 3D facial scanning.
+ GrapheneOS plans to extend secondary unlock support with the option of
+ 2-factor authentication using a secondary PIN or passphrase required for
