Hi everyone, I am currently using a Pixel 5a at the moment but since the device is getting close to end of life i will be getting a newer model. I am planning to factory reset my device and revert back to StockOS to sell it. Is there a possibility that any data on my phone can be retrieved? i know for some devices with the right tools and resources there is the ability to do so but i've never looked into whether changing an entire OS on a device may impact the success of certain tools used to extract.

Factory reset is enough. Encryption keys in the titan secure enclave are wiped and data is then unrecoverable, even if you had the password/PIN.
