Pixel 3a + 3a XL Impressions: A Nexus for 2019, or Google’s $399 iPhone XR killer?

1. So now that you've watched the video and seen the phones — what do you think? Did Google do a good job with the Pixel 3a series? Let's discuss!

2. Might make the move from my S8….decent camera.

3. 2020 Still love it !!

4. The build quality on the 3a & XL with the polycarbonate build quality is excellent. I like it better than the glass sandwich? In case of a drop very durable? That 📷, OLED display & 🔋 are really nice? On average 7to8hrs SOT. The 670processer works admirably, no lags or stutters. I would recommend either phone to anyone? The tech geeks or the novice?

5. Six years ago I bought a Google Nexus 5 for £299. Yesterday it finally died so today I bought a Google Pixel 3a for…..£299. I'm happy with this.

6. Good content I subbed

7. I use the S10+ as my daily & the 3a XL as my backup. Guess what? Could I use the 3a XL as my daily? Yes absolutely? I paid 1,000 dollars for the S10+ and 4oo.oo for the XL tax included. So, is the S10+ 6oo.oo dollars better? Absolutely NO! Bottom line, my 1,ooo dollar days are over. I'm having a great time with this mid-ranger phone…..

8. I've never understood why speakers don't face towards the front. It's my only complaint about this phone

9. I bought the pixal3a XL on cyber Monday for 4oo.oo bucks tax included? Yes, I looked at the pixal4 but decided too expensive for what's offered. This deal made me & my pocketbook very happy? What am I missing, not much the camera, display & battery? For 4oo.oo bucks no complaints from me? Very good review!

10. I think I saw more videos in the past 2/3 days of this phone that I ever I did of any other phone, the more I watch the more I want it, despite the lack of an SD card slot.

11. I just want…

    – A "small" phone (meaning the dimensions nowadays are totally ridiculous for my taste). the p3a is kinda as big as I "can" go
    – decent battery life (it should last me through a above average day on one charge (which it does)
    – good camera (p3a does that so far I'd say) because I dont own a "regular" camera, my phone is all I have for this (and my drone, but I cant take that out in a crowded city xD)

    I dont play strenous games like pubg or something on my phone, and it doesnt need to be the fastest. Also I really like the UI I have on the pixel.
    I hope the p4a has a WA lense instead of a telephone, since I can zoom in with superres zoom, but I cant do a photosphere wideangle on a family dinner since people will move.

12. I bought the 3a XL and so far I love it. I always put a case on my phone so the plastic body doesn't bother me at all. I am loving the price and the performance.

13. Iphone killer never but its a great phone

14. Just ordered one. Have had various phones over the years both iOS and Android. Im over those high end phones. Paying 800 dollars for a phone is silly. Getting back to Android for now. I like the idea of having the raw android system and no manufacturer skins or fluff on top. Shame it doesnt have wireless charging, its not a deal breaker but its very convinient being able to just plop it down on the shelf in the car or when you get home instead of fidgeting with a cable.

15. Great, great phone. Well donde Google!

16. Went from the XR to the pixel 3a XL. After 30min of having the phone I dropped it And cracked the screen… Overall great battery life and haven't noticed any lags

17. Notches ain't no problem for me.

18. If your worried about a camera not taking amazing selfies. It's time to reevaluate your life….

19. What a remarkable review!!! Keep it up

20. I saw a lot of reviews about the pixel A XL. Your review touched on a lot of things that other reviewer said because they're factual but your video was the most informative. I purchased the phone confidently based on your review. I am an iPhone user and have been for the past three years. I've always owned Android. I love my iPhone because of the video quality and everything is very simplistic in terms of it just works. I have to say with all the updates and changes I am slowly creeping back to the pixel. I don't like Samsung or any other companies if I use a phone that has to be directly from them. I'm strictly iPhone or pixel. Thank you for the review.

21. To be so LARGE you would think they would make the best phones . What is wrong with them ?????????

22. Which is a better feel on the hand. Pixel 3a or the XL version? I'm asking because I'm not a fan of very big phones

23. I'm interested in getting the 3axl , love the flat screen (do not like curved edge screens) great point you made about longevity which is why I'll wait 3-4 months then review updates on phones performance… by then it'll be black Friday and maybe catch a great price. Thanks , new sub

24. awwww I personally like the notch, I was disappointed that the xl didn't come with it.

25. So many broke people in this comment section it's just hilarious seeing people trying to defend a plastic phone.

26. Oh come on. Plastic is fine cause 8 out of 10 guys put a case on.

27. I have a pixel 3 XL. I have not had any issues with software.

28. Bruh mine didn't come in on the 11th like it was supposed to

29. It's 399 at least on your soil but for international nations it's cost more. And the RAM is really shallow when could've at least more, with apps likr social media which takes 800-900mb running in the background & for heavy user with apps constantly updated overtime. It's definitely gonna slowdown, "notification bell" other than that good 3 years stock updates and a stock+soft cam UI experience with unlimited Gpics

30. All these comments on why glass backs..
    A glass construction is just cathartic to some. Same with weight. While most of the time we want our devices light and durable.

31. 3A XL

32. Excellent video, love the detailing you did on the chipset build.

33. Hi, how would you compare the 3a to Xiaomi mi 9 SE? Picture quality is important but during the day, 2slot SIM would be nice but also a good scree with notifications. Tough choice.

34. Good review. Very good actually. Thx ❤️

35. Yep, i still call it Nexus

36. 4:53 – brilliant review @Daniel Bader of the 670 chip and info vs 845 in Pixel 3. Really appreciate and has made me buy this as my second phone for business emails etc.

37. I thought the 6P/5X had people praising the cameras at the time tho? Especially for the price especially for the 5X

38. Just get a mi a2 for half the price.

39. Who cares about the back most people like me will put a phone case to protect anyhow….I just got this phone and it's dope!

40. Bring back metal phones Google… I still haven't upgraded my nexus 6p coz I love the form factor and the metal feel in hand

41. I'm stuck between the PewDiePie chair and the 3a XL same price and equally good

42. Best review 👍🏽

43. Well, It's not like a Nexus device, nexus had flagship CPUs. I mean the Nexus 5X has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 meanwhile the Pixel 3A has the Snapdragon 670.

44. I don't care about cameras or its being plastic. I just wish it had wireless charging…

45. What the… This guy looks like a young Steve Jobs with the hair of later Steve Jobs…
