Whenever I want, though I usually wait until someone else's (family) phone goes EoL with security updates, then I get a new device (pixel) and they get my used device for whatever the going rate is for trade-in to G. They get a gently used phone at like 1/3rd the price I paid, I get a new shiny thing to geek out on, I trade in their device that was once my device to help contain the costs of the new device, and they stay secure which makes my life easier and keeps my nerves relatively-relaxed. The circle of liiiiiife~
This fall will be different though, since I got the 10 fold this past year, so I won't need/want a new phone, but a family member has the pixel 6 that will be going EoL. Probably help them trade in the 6 for an 11 and call it a day, keep my 10. Fall 2027 will be different, another pixel going EoL, so I might grab the 12 fold or whatever, pass down my 10 fold, trade in their 7 pro. Then everyone will be on security updates for... 7 years from release? So we won't need new devices until 5 years from now, that being our 8 pro.
