The Pixel C, a perfectly functional 3-year old device still runs on Android 8.1 Oreo and will not be updated to Android Pie. As per XDA Developers, Google will be rolling out the update gradually and not everyone will receive the OTA update right away. The phones that did not receive the updates are Google’s older Nexus 5X and 6P phones as they have reached the end of the three-year commitment for getting device security patches by Google. Notably, Apple is still supporting its 5-year old iPhone 5S, which currently supports the latest version of iOS 12.
