I was planning on getting the Pixel 5, but ended up choosing the 4a 5G. Despite the name, it's closer to the 5 than to the 'plain' 4a in nearly all specs [1]. Same camera, processor, and resolution.
The 5 supports higher framerate and contrast, has a bit more RAM, and has some wireless charging features, but the 4a 5G has a headphone jack and is $200 less, so...
