With all new processor and onboard chips, the current software is not officially supported. Raspberry Pi officially supports the Buster version of Raspbian, which is not currently out. I am not sure of the official release date as well.

One of the may drawbacks with the current version is the memory swapping that occurs on Pi 3 is at odds with Pi 4.

In saying that there are still numerous reasons to get one, but it is for someone with good operating system self-support or forum support that may get you through the up and downs. So far after a few review and test, it is a good version for general operations as the Pi 3.
