If you're still using a Google Pixel 3 or Pixel 3 XL, do take note that your phone no longer has access to unlimited Google Photos storage at original quality.

When the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL were unveiled in 2018, Google stated that the feature will cease on 31 January, 2022. The Pixel 3 phones will continue to have unlimited Google Photos storage at high quality.

Google stopped offering unlimited Google Photos storage at original quality for the Pixel phones since 2019 with the launch of the Pixel 4. A year later, Google announced that any new photos and videos uploaded from 1 June, 2021 will count towards the free 15GB storage that comes with every Google account or the additional storage that users have purchased as Google One members.
