- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 ต.ค. 2024
- The Pixel 3a which was unveiled during Google I/O 2019 may be one of the best smartphones of 2019. It may not have the best specs or a huge set of features but after unboxing it and going hands on, its price may be the winner. While this isn't a full long term review yet, since we spent over two straight months with its predecessor, lets do a quick Pixel 3a vs Pixel 3 comparison. The two may be closer in performance than you may think.

They removed every feature I don't care about, improved the back (no glass, yay), and brought back a headphone jack. This may be my next phone. I own a Pixel gen 1.
I don't even understand why people prefer the more fragile glass back compared to getting sturdier plastic. If they want it for the wireless charging, ok I get that. But if they like it just for the aesthetics? Not very practical.
In the excat same boat. But I may even wait for the 4a.
@@alpineassault which people prefer it? Do consumers actually prefer it? Or is it just the marketing and design people that are collectively convinced glass is the way to go?
I personally loved my HTC one X, that was plastic done RIGHT! Since then I've had a metal HTC phone which I already felt was a step back and then glass phones... Not because I wanted that, but because that was all that was available and ticking all other boxes I wanted. Plastic is mostly only used on budget devices, there is no real choice when you do want a high-end phone...
To add to that, I currently have a galaxy S9+ and I mostly love it, but I have a slim plastic cover that kind of wraps around the back and sides of it to protect it. It's the first phone I've had that I have had something of a case around pretty much since getting it. The glass back is completely lost to me, it would have been better if the material the case is made of would simply have been used for the back of the device...
Oh and by the way, wireless charging works fine with plastic (works through my case), it's metal that interferes with that.
Should be a nice upgrade from Pixel 1.
Moved from an OG Pixel, you won't notice Performance differences, probably a bit more snappy, you're gonna love the battery (I got 6 hours of SOT and was left with 7% battery)
I've sold phones for years. There is 2 questions people ask, how much is it? And how is the camera? I haven't had someone ask about the processor since like 2014. Headphone jack is a very big plus too.
Just wished they offered a 128GB as an option or at least an SD card then it would be perfect.

I would think the third question would be, "How is the battery life?" Those seem to be the most important factors.
@@bizmonkey007 It is an important factor, however it really is not a question people ask. They instead ask of it's true that batteries wear out, or is it "planned obsolescence". Most will plug their phone in overnight whether it needs charging or not, and most phones last until then and much more anyways. If you look at the spread modern phones. It's not the big things people care about. (Other then the things I mentioned) It's the small things they have to live with for their phone contract. Like my gesture control on my p20's touch pad, or a headphone jack, or notification light. The things that most reviewers gap over because they are subjective or "unimportant". Most reviewers I know of aren't on the front lines with real customers, they are instead more in touch with the passionate community of followers. And they have to cater to the people who will be searching for reviews. I see 25-50 people a day, it's surprising how consistent the points they bring up are, and how hey differ from the points reviewers or tech enthusiasts bring up.
All we want is space/camera and Battery - lol
Unfortunately I don't care about the camera that much I care about the specs especially the cpu
I really like where Google went with this, sometimes it feels like 50% of the price is just looks
Front facing speakers, wide angle selfie camera, glass back versus plastic. Worse front screen Dragon Tail versus Corning Glass.
This device is for the budget minded and those who can't afford more than 20$/Mo for a device. Other than that the Pixel 3A is good device.
@@cleysoptique8749 Many consider plastic vs glass a *plus*. I do.
The speakers are fine. Almost nobody is going to worry about the exact placing at all.
Not everybody is worried about the front camera.
Most people will never even consider they type of glass. If this model becomes especially known for broken screens - then it will mater - otherwise not at all.
Most people don't really consider the specs. Does it look and feel nice might be a concern. Battery life and "does it work smoothly" (no obvious stuttering) surely is.
And most people are budget minded.
Why spend hundreds of wasted dollars for spec bragging rights few people care about and glass backs that will never be seen below a case? That's just throwing a lot of money out the window.
@@oerthling see that's the thing i'm a minority to this. I'ts not bragging rights for me, its using all of the potential of a device. otherwise i would just buy a 300-600 phone.
Obviously you have the normal things like battery life, but the screen plays a big part. do you want to look at washed out content or do you want really crisp visuals, cinematic -esque. And for that you'll end up paying more of a premium. plastic doesn't feel nice to the touch as glass does. i had a Moto Z2Force and it didn't feel that great to look at or slide my fingers across. because of the plastic design. glass is simply smoother.
The speakers to me, if i hold my phone in landscape mode and watch videos my right hand tends to muffle the sound due to the placement of the speaker. a lot of phones have this issue. But Front facing speaker phones do not., and tend to sound better because both speakers are bigger usually and better drivers. UnboxTherapy has done videos showing this like comparing various phones. You can hear the difference its not a lot, but it does change the way things sound.
The camera is a big selling point in this day and age otherwise we wouldn't have phones with 3+ sensors on them. i love taking pictures with the front facing camera with my family. i also want options like zoom capabilities to get a picture i normally couldn't because i'm far away from the subject.
These things do matter to a lot of people, but for those who don't care that's also fine and that's why this phone isn't 700+.
@@cleysoptique8749 every smartphone will lose its value. Smartphones lose their value faster than any other type of tech. So why spend over 500 dollars when you could get a cheaper phone that's as good as the 3a but won't lose as much value?
@@colternewkirk6163 obviously you did not read one of my earlier reply. To another person. If you apply that same logic then take this for instance people don't buy a Honda civic to get the best handling that they can experience. They buy a Porsche Cayman as it's the best bang for buck on top of the best handling in its class. There's a reason why people say, it doesn't handle like a Porsche. for somebody that doesn't give a damn about all those extra things and is more of a point A to point b type of person then they're going to buy this device which is fine but for me personally I want to experience something that's far better and if I have to put up a little extra dough then by all means. There's a reason why Mercedes AMG and the BMW M series are known for best performance in their classes. but yeah after 5 years they'd appreciate a lot so who cares, that just means that second owner gets a hell of a discount 😂 it's the same mentality that most people have they rather wait a couple years after a product, out that way they can get it at a steal price
My dude. Thanks for confirming on what I was thinking to purchase for my mother for mother's day.
Great review. I just subscribed..
SEAMOSS69 Haha same! My middle aged Mom only really uses her phone for texting and photos, and she takes a shit ton of photos. So when I heard about the 3A I knew I’d have to get it for her.
That starbucks cup accidentally left in the background.....
:P In a week NO ONE will get this.
@@HardwareCanucks Hahaha yes ;)
I didn't watch it, but I get it.
Watch the looper vids , it wasn't a Starbucks cup left in that GOT episode, it was a local coffee shops cup where they shot the episode.
Great comparison, superb..
Got my 3a xl today. Having the headphone jack was the major selling point for me. I'm old school I guess👍
U still liking it after a week?
@@benholland8526 Yes I'm still liking it. No issues yet !!!
How is the quality with apps like Snapchat?
'm usin' one right now
Would you like a cassette player too?
The true value is in Google's software support. There are plenty of well-priced midrange phones at the moment but software support is terrible, even on many Android flagships it's terrible. Midrange is now good enough for 99% of consumers if they were honest with themselves.
I love your last sentence. As someone who always used Flagships I've been very impressed by how capable midrange phones have become. I'm currently rocking an Honor 7x and it really doesn't compromise much (for a $200 phone anyway)
That is one good advantage with iPhone software support of up to 5 yrs Samsung are slow at updating their phones as is Huawei what you get with google is support it means everything
Watching this on the Purpleish 3A! Loving this phone so far.
offbeat kiki would you recommend me to switch over from my iPhone 7 Plus?
@@TenEXP If you buy it from Google and trade in your phone you can get the Pixel 3a for $105-$150, plus $100 in Google Store credit, plus $100 in Google Fi credit. It's up to you if practically free is worth it.
I want the purple ish colour so bad but for whatever reason there are *none* in germany
I have The Pixel 3 and I don't game or anything. Wish I bought the 3a because it's pretty much the same but with a headphone jack.
Same here. Just got my wife the 3a and I wish I'd waited for that one myself instead of getting the 3 a couple months ago.
Yeah... Only things I wish were on the 3a are wide-angle selfie camera and that awesome speaker setup. 3.5 mm jack is great and it should stay on the Pixel 4.
No you don't I have it and it's slower than my Pixel 2. Stutters a bit too much. Great phone but definitely Pixel 3 is a win win. Water resistant, smaller bezels, wide angle cam, wireless charging...
@@JJ-sj2ku Oh, yeah, I forgot about water resistance! Also, 3a doesn't have decided VPU, something even Pixel 2 had. Wireless charging is not a big deal tho. I mean, who uses it, when you have fast charging over USB-C?
Yep. If you are not into gaming. Then pixel 3a is the right choice for you.
Smartphone companies: *Make flagships cost $1000+*
People: *Buy cheaper phones that still meet their needs*
Smartphone companies: *[insert pikachu face]*
*insert surprised sonic*
Samsung had to drop the prices of the S10e, S10 and S10+ by €200 in my country because nobody wanted to buy them.
“Why are people taking 36 months to update their phones!?”
:O
Do pubg play smooth?
Since Google's heading in the right direction with Pixel 3a, they might knock it out of the park with Pixel 4 this fall. Google's critical shortcomings against Apple's is hardware performance/optimization (partly due to lack of in-house SoC), cross-platform sync (iMessage), and battery life. I hope Google's hardware department pushes hard this year.
As a former Apple user, I still have no idea why people care so much about iMessage. I've seen enough comments about it that I've kind of accepted it, but after 3 years of iOS my impressions of iMessage were just that it was ugly and unreliable. It loved to tell me messages had failed when they had actually sent and vice versa. It also prevented me from getting texts for months after I switched to Android because it kept trying to send them to my nonexistent iPhone... Do iPhone users all own a Macbook and get really pumped about texting on their computer? I just don't get it.
@@notstarboard it's probably a testament to apple's awesome marketing, including how they get many fans to defend them whatever they do... I've never used iMessage, but I got the impression it was good, simply because that's the impression most Apple fans give I guess...
For what it's worth, outside of North America, most people don't use iMessage for their primary messaging app. They use WhatApp or Line or Weechat, etc. All of which are available on Android, of course.
I'm hoping that Google does it right with the Pixel 4 XL which I'm hoping to replace my Pixel 2 XL with.
iMessage is cross-platform as long as all your devices are Apple. I'd say that Google is the king of cross-platform sync. I'm an iPhone user, but I use Google's services over Apple's due to their cross-platform support (Gmail, Maps, Photos, Drive, Docs, hangouts, etc)
399? you could get a really good chair with that amount of money
i see what you did there.
Available in Red? Premium Lather?
@@Ri9e Authentic italian leather
but CAN YOUR PHONE DO THISSSSS
And that's a great price
When the camera is on par with a flagships camera and you paid like a third of the price lol
OMG I enjoyed this video so much because of the presenter's voice. Smooth like butter 😍 haha. Hope you're doing VO gigs, man! You could make lots of money!
I was really wanting to get a Pixel to replace my 6S, and the time has now come
JustAnotherGamer I too have iPhone 6s, which still runs smooth and perfect. Pixel 3a- No original quality google photos, slower image processing due to missing pixel visual core, snapdragon 670-going to slow down and lag within a year cause it's not iOS, so better go for pixel 2xl or if you have money go for pixel 3.
Aniruddha Majumder thanks for the input. Ya my 6S runs fine but I was looking for something with a little better battery life. How much does the 2XL go for?
@@justsomedude5591 don't buy pixel 2 xl software update slowed 2xl & battery life is bad . But display is better than 3a
Hey, this video was great and actually pushed me closer to the 3a than I thought it would.
But just one tiny, nitpicky thing-
Maybe consider covering up that flashing light on the appliance/computer behind you? Super distracting, I couldn't stop my attention being drawn to it over and over. :D
Great video man!
Yeah.....realized during editing. It'll be done in the future!
Please tel me if they fixed the microphone from the Pixel 3.
I've actually been waiting for your review on the Pixel 3a.
They did. I saw a video test for the Pixel 3a and it sounds good
+Brett M. Oh Thank the Gods..
Idk how Google manages to fuck up every Pixel launch besides the original, good to know the 3a is worry free.
The pixel 3 has already been fix microphone issues and performance has already been fixed one like 95% of the Pixels. Happy with my pixel 3 :)
Good job. Great review. You sold me on 3A. I'm not a selfie taking kind of guy. the rear cam is what interests me.
Just for the record, the Pixel Visual Core is not included in Pixel 1 either.
but isnt the proccesor still faster? people keep telling me no but my pixel 1 is stil really fast
@@nix5671 SD670 has better GPU than the SD821
Does visual core present on pixel 2 or xl ?
@@amitdas-ee7vd Yep.
I absolutely loved your review & comparison. Subscribed & Bell Icon clicked!
My 1st Pixel to go along with my iPhone XS Max. I was never going to pay $800 for a Pixel XL.
The aXL is nice phone
@ffs I have several phones.
How about $400 Pixel 3a vs. $240 Pixel 2 XL ?
No notch, a headphone jack, more durable plastic body. In some ways this is an upgrade. If you don’t care about wireless charging or a perfect selfie camera than your not really losing anything with the 3a over the 3. The main difference for me is the processor which the 670 is close to a 835 in performance.
Everybody all talking like this is the first time Google has taken on the affordable but powerful smartphone market.
*Nexus S and Nexus 4: Are we a joke to you?*
Short term technology memory
I'm still rocking the Nexus 5! LOL The 3a looks like my next purchase. Love a clean android OS.
You forgot the legendary Nexus 5!
Danggg. The Nexus line is like the Jenna Jameson of Google phone. Just legendary.
Watching on Nexus 6. Only started having battery issues a month ago. Bought it used in 2015/16.
Watching this on my Pixel 3A XL
I'm still rocking my Note 5 I picked up 5 years ago, used to be the guy who upgraded every 2 years to a flagship but realized I was just caught up in the who marketing pitch you get bombarded with to upgrade. My Note 5 still works good, I never sit there thinking its slow or lagging and the camera still takes great pics. That being said its running Android 7 and I think its time to move on. The Pixel 3a XL is built for me all I care about is a great camera, good screen, good battery and OS updates. Looking forward to getting my fist new phone in 5 years WOOT. Thanks for the vid.
Thank you so much for this side by side! I've been trying to decide between the two, and I haven't really found many side-by-side comparisons for the 3 vs 3a. Now I have some valuable information to make a decision that is based in reality. Thanks again!
Now which one will u buy
I came here to see what the 3a offers because I found a 3a for sale in an online website in my country. The price is around $235 USD (used /mint condition) though I missed a Pixel 4 that was selling for $340 USD (1 month old / MINT). of course these are not the daily prices that you'd expect to find everyday but it's some of the greatest opportunities that comes once in a while!. ANYWAY, THANKS FOR THE REVIEW!
This is Google's first phone without their contract with HTC. Really shows you how much better the Pixel line is going to be
The Nexus was LG
Samsung made the original Galaxy Nexus
Huawei made the Nexus 6P
@@PsychoMantis308 wrong... Nexus is like Pixel.. LG, HTC, Huawei, Motorola, etc a lot of companies make phones for google
I thought that Foxconn was building Google's phones now ? Are the 3a and 3a XL Foxconn built ?
I think the 3 hasn't sold as well, because a lot of people are still too happy with the 1 and 2 to justify the upgrade (I still love my OG Pixel). The 3a might push me over the edge.
I'm literally in this exact some situation. I'm an og pixel user but I'm so tempted. The only downside for me is the lack of led light. But for the 3a I may have to look past that
I want to reward Google for returning the headphone jack tbh, so 3a is in my future.
No, the 3 hasn't sold well even in countries where it has been the first Pixel available (there are many)
Pixel 3a- No original quality google photos, slower image processing due to missing pixel visual core, snapdragon 670-going to slow down and lag within a year, so better go for pixel 2xl or if you have money go for pixel 3.
“Flagship smart phones aren’t selling as well as they thought”
There’s this thing called over saturation it happened to consoles in the 80’s. Might be a good idea to hold back on hardware and double down on software.
hi, i'm planning to get the pixel 3a, but this video is nearly a year old, has something better and within the same price range came out ever since?
Thanks for the thorough and intelligent review.
530€ vs 399€....winner pixel 3 because....
Snapdragon 845
Better gpu
The sn 670 probably makes the phone a bit laggy after a couple months of usage.
The pixel 3 has a better modem, so better reception when there's a low signal
Ip68
Wireless charging
rpm24 real life performance isnt much dif
Great review! Thank you. God bless you, brother.
Everyone: We want a headphone jack on premium phones
Apple and Google: *no*
Tao Tao Samsung too
You miss out one of the MOST important thing: 3a- eMMC 3-UFS, the speed of read/write is tremendously different, when you recording 4K video and save, 3a cost time more; while playing game loading, 3a cost time more.
Great detail! You really helped me decide what phone I am going to be getting
Pixel 3a made me disappointed in always praised OnePlus.
Google releasing dank phone for dam good price meanwhile OP releases an expensive flagship with price high enough that you will have to compare it to obviously much more functional and powerfull samsung phones.
i always heard the praise about OP, thats why i went from my s6 edge to a OP6 and i regret that i did that. not that i want a pixel 3a, it was more of a "a upper midrange phone from 2018 must be better in every way than a flagship phone from 3 years earlier" thinking. and i was wrong.
I agree with all things Google did to make the phone affordable but what I find is the deal-breaker is to 64 gigabytes of storage space that's definitely is not enough for modern phone.
Could you do a long-term review on Pixel 3 after recent updates? Mic, phone calls, RAM, overall performance.
NintenDude70 That's all I care about is the microphone.
I remember his original review trashed the Pixel 3 for it's inability to actually make phone calls where people could actually hear you.
I'm not expecting Blue Microphone quality, but Google can't just skimp on that.
This is actually a perfect strategy. Google's going to use the Pixel 3A to bring in customers to the Google brand and once they release the pixel 4 most of these people are going to trade in their 3a's And get a discount on the new flagship It's genius honestly and the new Pixel 4 looks AMAZING!
Just scored an unlocked Pixel 3 and a 3 XL at Best Buy for the same price as the 3a series. It's a good time to be upgrading.
Wut..
I've been an iPhone user for so long and have been considering the switch back to Android. This phone really moved the needle for me.
Also, can you tell me/does anyone know what sort of light is on top of the monitor?
I'm not much into bigger smartphones these days, so it's still a no-go for me but this would be perfect for my grandparents, all they care about is if it works and takes good pictures.
Very impressed with the 3a. This has massive potential and I foresee great success with this handset.
... It was actually horrible 😅😅HAHA and I'm dead ass serious too!! Lmaooo 🤣🤣
Do both offer google assistant? And the automatic phone answering?
Had my Pixel 3a for 24 hours now and am VERY happy with it!
Had my 3a for 48 hours and I agree.

I like your hoodie where did you get it?
his channel should be renamed to averageconsumer, as averageconsumer never talks or thinks like an average consumer does. you rock buddy
Could you please specify what the battery life is in day to day use? For GP 3 and GP 3a
If you don't care about IPS diisplay, a water drop notch, micro USB charging port and stock Android, get the Realme 3 Pro. Snapdragon 710, up to 6GB RAM, great stock camera (or Gcam to make it 10x better), 4045mAh batter with VOOC 20 watt charging, heavy customization in Color OS 6 with many navigation configuration, screen off gestures a la OnePlus, etc. all for only around $280. I'm using it right now while sidelining my OnePlus 6T and I honestly doesn't miss it. The battery life is great
One question: microphone audio is better on pixel 3 or 3a?
Great comparison! So as I type this, the base mode of the Pixel 3 on Verizon is only $500 at Best Buy. At this price point, which is the better value -- $500 Pixel 3 vs $400 Pixel 3a?
It's 300$ for 3a as well as 3 rn.

So.... Should I get the GP 3a or and iPhone 7?
As a budget user still rocking the OG Pixel XL, this looks like the next step for me? They even still look alike.
I know this is older but I have a LG V30 and can upgrade. Lately I have been wanting a Pixel but I don't want to spend so much on a phone. Would you pick a 3A or just keep this V30? Anyhelp is much needed
Guys please help!! Which one to get? 3 or 3a since there's discount for 3 and both price are so close right now.
wow, surely you could've used a tripod when taking those photo comparisons so that they're at least remotely of the same angle and FOV.
No one is talking about how the Pixel 3 is now $499. My new Pixel 3 arrives tomorrow and I'm super excited. The Pixel 3a does not look like a good price IMHO after a huge price drop on the Pixel 3. Again, no one is comparing after Google made a huge price cut on the Pixel 3.
Chris K Where did you purchase your Pixel 3 from? From what I’ve checked there is no price drop.
@@adelinapietraru507 on bestbuy its 299 now
I'm so jealous of that headphone jack. Why Google removed it on the pixel 3.
In 2021 both of these are basically the same price on eBay so I think the pixel 3 is far more worthwhile given it has nearly double the processing power, the pixel core and the dual selfie can system.
I got the regular Pixel 3 from Google on their anniversary sale for $480 new. I like the hardware but the software needs refinement. I will keep the P3.
The pixel 3a is a budget flagship.... because $749+ is a flagship and a budget smart phone is under $300 like lg stylo, galaxy J’s and moto g7 and more
PIxel Visual Core is useful when you take a picture within an app, that´s OK and the differencies in the results are clearly shown in the video (1:54 ).
But.. what if a take a normal picture with the camera, and then upload it to an instagram story or whatsapp chat as a file? Would it be the same on both phones? The processing time will be longer in the 3a, but will the end result be the same?
Awesome review!
Looked at the Pixel phones pretty hard but ended up buying the Galaxy S10+ today. Looking forward to getting it as I've been using my Galaxy S7 for nearly three years now
roller_47 You made a good choice.
Pixel's haven't had the best long term use when compared to the OP6 over 6months to a year.
Amazon is selling pixel 3 at 349USD now, what do you suggest pixel 3 or pixel 3a?
Coming from no phone at all due to last one finally giving out, this phone is a killer deal at the right time. B&H probably has the best deal. $100 gift card, plus 3 months prepaid unlimited plan. That technically puts the Pixel in the $240 range. I was originally going to buy some stuff that B&H has anyways, so that $100 gift card is $100 I would have spent regardless. Even if you have no need for the bonus plan, it'd make a nice gift to someone.
Could you clarify the software updates for three years. What happens after three years? $400 is less than $700 but it's still $400 and the longer it stretches the better the deal.
Where can I buy your jacket?
Seeing phones at this price make me think that maybe I'll eventually be able to afford a new phone. I'm still rocking a Galaxy S4, but phones are so damn expensive these days, so I've never bothered upgrading.
I'm torn between the 3/3XL and LGV40 thinq. I've had my trusty v20 for years now mainly because of the quad DAC. The V40 thinq lack of custom rom support (for now) is quite a deal breaker. Should I get the 3/3XL and a separate DAP or the v40 and wait for the custom rom?
Stay with LG man, you'll never find their built quality into pixel device, the Quad Dac will be an outstandin feature in 2020, plus the audio quality in pixel 3's video is pure crap even though they did upgade it...
pretty sure HDR quality is the same between Pixel 3 and 3a. The Visual Core only accelerates the processing speed
Do prefer my so lovely regular Pixel 3 in just black color 😘😍🥰
The cheap Nokia 6.1 got Android Pie soon after its release, and gets updates every month. The OS is pretty much stock Android. So it’s not just Google that can provide regular updates.
At Rs39,999 indian rupee, you will get one plus 6t , which is now available just for Rs33000 . And one plus is giving successive software updates. And for sure you will get updates for at least 2-3 years regularly. And taking about the camera, you just install Google camera port to use the incredible night sight and hdr+ ,which is easily available on the xda developer page. One plus is value for money
How would U say it compares to the Samsung galaxy j7 sky?
With no expandable memory & only a 64 gb variant available, the space is definitely a limiting factor here. Also, why wouldn't they make it dual sim?
Good phone anyway though!
If you use fi. You can use e-sim and it basically turns into turn into a 2 sim phone.
is there any case that can make this phone wireless charged?
Accessory what makes it wireless yes and that go middle of case and phone. bad point have to take accessory of if like to use port.
What’s about battery which one is better
does your 3a have blue tint like pixel 2 had? yellow warm screen?
@Kent Kerr mine does...for some reason
Dude! Get your facts right. Nokia does the same. Nokia gives regular security updates and software updates. And my Nokia 7 Plus cost much lesser than the 3a.
does it gonna have android q update? just asking. if yes, thats gonna be a dealbreaker
I'm still using my Note Edge from 2014, It's a tad slow at times and the old OS sometimes annoying, but it does everything else I need.
I did buy a new phone, a flagship no less, but it just wasn't as good to use and now sits in a drawer.
I see no need to buy another new smartphone. The companies, if anything, are removing features that I want more than features I might like.
Is there a way to turn off annoying suggested pop up on right corner when watching videos? It is annoying as hell.
I use Chrome with uBlock Origin and AdBlock Plus. I never see those.
Will it be wise to get a used pixel 3xl 128gb for 400 dollars considering the newly launched phones.
My basic needs are one day battery life on moderate use, good camera and decent performance
Help me out please 🙌🏻
Any lifelong iPhone users switch to either the Pixel 3 or 3a? How’d it go? I’m really considering it but I have tried Android once in the past (a long while ago) and it wasn’t a pleasant experience.
Am a Samsung user but I suppose Google should keep the pixel 3 style.. looks better than 95% of designs out there. The size, features and the shape looks fab.
3a is the new Nexus 4, glad to see the reduced price point for those who want the newest software.
Don't you mean Nexus 5 since that actually used plastic and was the successor to the Nexus 4
Pixel 2 64 GB is on sale for $299 on Amazon.
no notch is a plus, but damn are those bezels huge.
Pixel 2's bezels were bigger, so I don't mind this so much.
Excellent Review . Thanks
The only phone that I know of that gets updates in a timely manner but lacks a camera with the likes of the Pixel 3a is my daughter's Nokia 6.1 that I got on Amazon for $232 dollars!!
flagship phone in 2016: $800. flagship phone in 2019: $1200. phone manufacturers: surprisedpikachu.jpg
Good video... I think Nokia phones are closely behind the Pixel when it comes to software updates. The Nokia 7.1 which can be found for $299 might actually be a better deal than the pixel 3A as the screen is better it has SD card support in the build quality is better. then again if you go to the Google store and trade in an old iPhone you can get the pixel 3 a pretty cheap so anyway just saying there is another manufacturer that is supplying good value phones with fast updates.
Nice video. Subscribed
Unfortanately, now that the pixel 3 is 8 months old, the price used-for-used is the same, so why even bother with the 3a......
"Flagship phones aren't selling as well as expected" I wonder if it has anything to do with the now $1k+ price tags(come on, this is something that has been climbing well beyond any inflation), or removal of headphone jacks and addition of the notch...or any other thing these companies seem to think of as a wonderful idea, but the majority of the public either didn't want or didn't care for.Yes to each their own, some might enjoy or not be bothered by some of these things, but really, a "chin" on your phone isn't that damn horrible, it can store a front facing speaker(s), keep you from accidentally activating the on screen buttons in landscape, etc.
