Note that the OG Pixel and Pixel XL still have unlimited backups and will for life. Just the Pixel 2 and up will lose it.

This article is wrong. Pixel 1 and 1XL will retain full quality for life.

Pixel 2-5 will retain high quality for life (16MP & 1080p)

You're half right. They still are unlimited at high quality except for the OG Pixel which stays unlimited at original or "full" quality.
