I like where we're going now, so many good phones at a much lesser price
That's how it used to be all phones were 200-400$

*Everyone felt old from that*
No kidding, hole is the most important!
I am 13 and I really wonder why companys like Samsung and Apple removed the headphone jack from their phones, like are they allergic to it or what? The excuse "taking the headphone jack away gives more space" is getting pretty old now, we want the real reason.

*"No, despite having hundred cameras, only 1 and half are useful."*

the answer would be the same for both, in that case. But it depends on your range

To this day, I haven't obtained a phone without a headphone jack nor do I intend to so the 4a is looking rather good for me! 👏👏
I can't live without a headphone jack
@@ultraaziz6307 same
Nobody will ever convince me that the difference in hardware costs in other phones can justify a jump in price from $350 to $1300 for the new Note 20. It's simply not possible that marginally better hardware in a phone is the reason the price is nearly 4x what this phone costs.
The top end phones that are over $1000 are priced that way because the manufacturers can do it. They would make healthy profits at $700 to $800 on those phones.
Stop buying expensive phones and they will stop charging insane prices for them. I ordered a Pixel 4a and it will be here in a couple of weeks. Goodbye Samsung I'm done paying $900+ for phones that aren't truly any better than the mid tier phones.
PREACH!👏
Same here I tuned down to a pixel 3a last year & it does the job
I’m fine with the Note 20 Ultra, it’s the most luxury phone out right now, but the regular Note 20 might be the worst flagship ever. Plastic back, decent processor, 60 Hz.... ALL FOR 1000 DOLLARS.
If google got it right id buy a pixel. I got the Note 20 ultra and i agree its too high, intraded in old iphone and got it for 500 off.
I want the best screen and need water resistant. Also i have big hands and wide fingers i need the bigger screen.
Yes i dont understand why some people I know need to drop 800+ dollars for phones when all they do is watch youtube videos, and maybe text and call people. 600+ more dollars for wireless charging, water proof, and a little faster cpu is not worth it to me especially when tech is always getting better. In another 1-2 years there will be better another phone than the one you bought. So i am going to settle for this amazing 350 dollar phone with an amazing camera, decent battery, and large storage space. Thats all I really need... and I will be satisfied for another 6+ years...
Idk why but I just really like how all these tech reviewer people on TH-cam are connected or just acknowledge each other in a way idk why I'm just weird
I use the headphone jack on my phone every time my BT headphones die. Can't use em and charge em at the same time. Thanks Google for including the jack in the 4a! No dongle for me!

TH-cam's been recommending "This is" for so long that I assumed I had subscribed it. Now I actually did, along with the bell.
This is the phone I've been waiting on Google to make since the Nexus 5
"Am I gonna use it? Probably not, but it's still nice to have it" 4:38 😂😂😂
If wireless headphones keep falling out of your ears then a headphone jack will be your best friend! Glad Google brought it back! 4:04
Theres wireless over ear headphones too
Tech reviewers, PLEASE STOP touting Apple's 5 year support window for a device that only has an 1800 mAh battery. You would NEVER recommend a device with such crappy battery to anyone who wants to use their phone long-term.
I have had a dozen iphones...none of them were useful after 3 years...They are just now paying us for the iphone 6 fiasco...
That’s a valid point, although replacing the battery could “revive” an iPhone. You can’t to much for (stock) software updates though.
Exactly. Unless someone is really going to make use of apple ecosystem SE is garbage phone especially at 64GB base storage, LCD vs amoled, 4.7 inch screen(pixel is physically same size with smaller bezels), pixel also 3 year software support(very decent for $350 phone), headphone jack + third party Bluetooth headphones works better on android than iphones because of iOS restrictions on third party accessories, awesome camera for all situations much better for photos. A13 power is useless at 4.7 inch screen you can't even game which will take benefit of the power of A13 😅. And yes biggest drawback is 1800mah battery that battery is super shit. It won't last more than 4 hours doing taska A13 is made for. 😂
@@rapiddu6482 you can game on the iphone se way better than almost any andriod ive tested. Its better than the s10 which was samsung's flagship. The phones battery is kind of a problem cus u barely get 4hrs of screentime but a replacement costs 35 dollars only, not a big problem. The display isnt even bad, the processor is probably better than 80 percent of flagships today and its ios, it lasts long with no problem. Andriods slow way too quick even though people almost never talk about it. The camera is also super good so u cant complain there. Screen is decent, if you get picky about a phone screen when your literaly budget for a phone is under 400 dollars, you're probably a choosing beggar unless you use your phone a lot.
@@rapiddu6482 also, the pixel 3 has the same screen on time as the iphone se so dont use that as an argument
Man I'd pick the pixel just for that headphone jack, can't really spend another 100$ for a Bluetooth headset with much poorer latency
1:39 I hope the Kids refers to MKBHD and every one ,Grandpa Austin
I'm so gonna use that headphone jack :D I keep breaking my bluetooth headphones and my wired is still going after all these years :D
My previous 2 phones were the Nexus 6P and Pixel XL - One full day with the Pixel 4a and I am totally sold on the price (seriously, we're talking about HALF of what both previous phones went for), features and SIZE. I remember first getting my Nexus 6P and thinking what a large phone it was; definitely a bit unwieldy trying to use with one hand in many situations, and I've got large hands. Though the Pixel XL was a tad smaller & lighter, it essentially felt the same. The Pixel 4a is, literally, just right.
Was thinking the same. Iphones get software support for much longer. But on the other hand, the battery won't hold up for longer than 2 years at most. Iphones really do have crappy batteries and signal reception I noticed.
why doesnt any reviewer focus on how good the software experience with the pure android is.....much better than the iOS
Its not as fluid as ios but for most people, its really good
Literally everybody puts or should put a case on their phone, so the one color really is insignificant and probably helps them with supply, not worrying about how much to make of each color or one color selling poorly. I'm totally fine with only the black option

I would suspect it as an advertising plant padding out comment sections Supertrooper, but I give Google’s marketing team a bit more credit than copy pasting the exact same comment across several videos. Would randoms really do it for useless likes though?

Hold on bro
Pixel offers at least 3 years of software and security update. That's the longest on Android now.
Moreover unlimited Google photos.
6 gb ram 128 gb storage, smooth software experience, and stunning stunning camera.
That's a real deal bro.
Oh sweet sweet headphone jack 😍.
People like me who loves using High quality wired earphones, would love it.
The only competitive camera phone with a headphone jack is Galaxy s10e. Which is one and half year old.
The phone can be a goto phone for everyone except the gamers.
I believe pixel 4a is going to outsell nord and se in usa and Europe.
@@00O3O1B yes U do. And certainty do Very well. In fact, most of the sensors are made by you.you always keep Headphone jack that I just love. I believe cutting off 3.5mm jack is just a bullshit way of selling tws. But you have a big issue that's software sony. You always provide top notch aspects.But due to lac of smooth software experience, it just doesn’t work. And people want a ready to share picture most of the time.And you can still keep the raw file even producing a eye soothing picture.
I think you should start working woth google.
Since google is not good at hardwire and you are not good at software, you can just leave the software on google and sell the phones together.
I believe that could bring out best Smartphone experience and outshine all other brands by far.

Mrwhosetheboss got the full package and it even had snacks man . How cool is that 🤣🤣🤣
With the Nord, pricing it comparitively from Euro to USD is not exactly fair. Most places have much higher tax and shipping costs than the us, more than likely the Nord would sell for $400 in the US. And bearing in mind in countries that you can actually get all of these devices apple and Google keep the numbers the same (i.e it costs where I live £350 for a 4a and £450 for the SE) whereas the Nord is adjusted and only £30 more than the Pixel, and at that price point an easy recommendation. Are hard comparison for someone in the US to make
The size shape and weight reminds me of the Samsung S4 from back in the day. It was very popular.
"(3a)a departure for google good phone..."
Throwing some shade Austin
I honestly hate any obstructions on the screen, notch or hole punch. Just have a portion of the front be glass instead of a screen.
I use my Moto G6 headphone jack all the time. Flexibility, something iphone has less and less, Samsung has less and less, as more people copy notches and removing features, they have less too, courageous/genius. Great to hear the Pixel 4a kept it, it's the front-runner for my next phone, wouldn't be without the jack.
One thing that hurts the Nord is that it's not available in U.S so pixel will run the Android market.
No views but 5 comments? TH-cam must be broken as always.
I can almost guarantee the Pixel 4a will have more longevity than the Nord. The Nord will be left in the dust by One Plus whilst pixel 4a will be updated to the latest 3 years from now and will run just fine. Just like how the original pixel is running on Android 10 today no problems.

25 seconds ago, and at least 10 comments saying first...
WHO HAS TIME TO DO THIS??
I like this phone not for its price, but for the compact size and the greatest Pixel Experience in that almost bezel less screen. When oneplus and xiaomi brough their all screen phones to the market , I wanted pixel Experience in that. Now we got something great!!
Cool video tech talk Austin
Agree with the fingerprint sensor comment. Much prefer the rear physical sensors.
About software support, though apple guarantees 4-5 years' updates, don't forget that secret button Tim Cook has at his desk! Usually after 2 to 3 years, the SE will be most likely slow as hell compared to the 4a.
Phone manufacturers are finally getting it. Just like nowadays you have mid variant cars coming out with only the stuff that interests you. Like led DRLs and reversing cameras. Leaving out the gimmicks you don't need like sun roof and auto headlamps.
You do get 6 years of updates with the iPhone SE but you'll have to change the battery possibly multiple times by then.
To the 1% that see this:
You are amazing and I hope you achieve your dreams.
My dream is to hit a 100k.
i doubt it
Austin, I think you are way to young for all the Dad jokes and Puns, LOL!!!
The Google pixel 4a: Still supports what us old timers know as a headphone jack used to listen to music kids
I can tell you that the in screen fingerprint scanner on my Realme X is better then any optical fingerprint scanner i've had on previous phones i have used.

OLED Display
60hz refresh rate
Great camera experience
128gb storage
Made of plastic
Note 20: $999
Pixel 4a: $349

It's weird, the 730 in my Redmi K20 is super fast. Like, it never stutters in apps. Now I don't play games on it, because I don't care about mobile gaming, and I'm sure it's lacking there, but it's really fast in apps. Are you saying the 730 in the Pixel 4a with stock Android could be faster? Because my Redmi K20 is buttery smooth. If you don't care about games on your phone, I'm sure the Pixel 4a is going to be very fast for 90% of users.

Keep up the good work! :)
Great content. This really helped me make a decision for my next phone. Might be just what I needed to make the switch from Apple to Android. Keep up the good work!
I have galaxy s20 plus, galaxy active 2 watch and galaxy tab s6. That being said I still have my google pixel 3a I got last year and aside from a crack in the screen that you can't even tell or feel really, I still love it not to fond of the camera but some of the best battery life on a Android phone I've used, didn't think twice about my battery usage
You're the Alton Brown of tech!
5:36 Swear down that looks like my friends mom 😂
Google having a headphone jack but not GarageBand. And Apple having GarageBand and no headphone Jack. What a world.
Im sorry smartphones as we broadly know them don't need more than 60 Hz 400ppi displays. To make it literally everything anybody might need in a phone, the pixel 4a would only need a more powerful processor (for future proofing), a slightly bigger battery, a wide angle camera, and waterproofing. Boom if it had all that i can guarantee I'm set for 5+ years
Plus the free full size Google Photos cloud storages for free
I don't understand why people don't like bezels. Bezels give more comfort and real estate to use the phone in landscape mode, and more room to implement better features like front firing speakers and features like project soli (if it gets better). Best of all, no hideous notch or holes on my screen and not required to have moving parts.
So much compromise just to get slightly more screen😒. Was expecting the 3a design language in 4a but was such a let down.
Austin you said the Nord was the closest competitor but you obviously haven't been using it for long considering how long it took you to find the SIM tray. Also whats the point in all these spec races, because my phone cost 129.99$ Canadian dollars, runs on Android 10 , has 2gb of ram, 720p screen, a mediatek Helio a22, and so far the experience had been very immersive and smooth, much better than the iPhone 6 I was using. I think nobody is going to upgrade their phone every year, because as long as your phone has Android 7 or later compatibility isn't an issue, and the new OS's only add new features, and take up more ram, lowering performance on low ram devices, which is pretty much any super budget phone. If Android could handle ram better than a really cheap phone could almost as good as this pixel 4a. And as a side note, what your calling a budget phone is cheaper than others yes, but with that hardware, the processor becomes the bottle neck, because what's the point of a 64mp sensor if you can't record 8k video? What's the point of a 1080p panel if you still can't see the pixels on a 720p panel, and the GPU can't handle 1080p smoothly? I think we need to stop worrying about numbers and start worrying about absolute value, in real world use. In case you didn't realize, and this goes to other phone reviewers too, most people aren't all that interested in playing call of duty mobile on such a tiny screen when their 7 year old PS4 can do the same thing for longer
Both the Nord and the Pixel have availability issues, many markets simply don't have them for sale. Meanwhile, the iPhone SE is available everywhere you'd expect it, which is a big advantage. For example, in Portugal, between these three, my only option is the iPhone, and that's a thing I think OnePlus and Google need to fix if they want to be as relevant.
Pixels get 3 yrs OS and security updates and I never keep a phone longer than that. Most ppl get a new phone every couple yrs.

Austin: The Pixel 4a will only last around 2-3 years while the iPhone SE can last 3-4 year.
Me, using a $250 Moto G5 plus from 2017 that's still perfectly fine: *Sure.*

I love how Austin thinks that mist of us don't know what wires are
Never realized that for mobile phone camera's its all about the software, i knew it matterd, but it's litterly more important then the sensor itsself, the camera sensor on this phone is very outdated, its years old, and yet it produces the quality of current day top sensors, only because their amazing camera software.
Yes, the iPhone will give you 5 plus years software updates, but that is misleading. Because as of today, some of the older iPhones don't have some of the features of the new software because of the older processor and chips and overall hardware, a lot of people are not mentioning that.
Hey Austin, This is Guys. I am pretty sure he said that and Matt or Ken have edited it out at least 10 times this year.
Yes, the 📷 is excellent but let us not forget about the software. A software company that excels in that area. Google's computational photography is 🔥, plain & simple!
You are the legend of tech
I'm not fussy with phones. Might upgrade to this from my aging Pixel 2 (which I consider almost perfect).
Yo, why hasn't JerryRigEverything not dropped a 4a video yet!? Google not send him a review unit!?
The one main problem I have with the iPhone SE is while, yes it's future proof for updates and the hardware it has - but can you really tell me that someone's gonna be wanting to use a 4.7" 720p (ish) screen size 3 to 4 years from now?
imo the design already seems outdated for 2020
Much needed spectacles upgrade. Thank you. 😌
as a google fi user with a 3a XL right now, im pretty excited to see a 5g rollout given the network of towers they use/have access to. probably gonna go for the 4a 5g, unless the p5 actually looks really good and makes a solid case for itself.
i'm still rocking the original pixel since launch. how much of an upgrade is the 4a for someone like me?
I'm currently using a Pixel 2XL, and I've had it for over 2 years now, it's going alright but I'm planning my next phone, and it is a close one between the Nord (I had a OnePlus 3T before pixel) and the Pixel 4a - and I honestly don't know.
Hole punch is just ridiculous. I'll take a small bezel over that wasted screen space any day.
Small bezel takes more space.
@@Blue-sb4hv More physical space in the hand but it doesn't intrude on screen real estate the way a pinhole or notch does.
All this makes me feel that if you can digest a compromise on screen the iPhone has much more premium material than all the competitors also the most powerful chipset for an iPhone also features like wireless charging and a better camera than Nord also the longevity is guaranteed
What about the battery...it barely gives you a aday
Sasi it can get you through a day
It can be the most powerful chip in the world, but if it's heavily underclocked, it's no longer special.
Blue Raptorz i guess the snapdragon 865+ beats it in the multicore score
