Google Pixel 3a 64GB
Google are making big strides in the smartphone field. The Pixel 3a is a prime example. It's the budget version of the standard Pixel 3 model.
First things first
The first impression of any phone is the display; the Pixel 3a comes with a 5.6 inch FHD+ OLED display that Google promises will "take your viewing experience to a whole new level".
A camera that performs magic tricks
At first glance the camera specs might not stand out; a 12.2 MP rear camera and 8MP front camera. Where the camera set up really impresses is the range of tricks it lets you perform. This includes Night Sight, which delivers rich detail and colour in the dark. Depth Editor lets you adjust the depth of field so you can focus on the most important things, while Colour Pop makes the background turn black and white while the subject stands out in vivid colour.
Protect the sensitive stuff
Protecting sensitive data is of increasing concern. In the Pixel 3a, Google’s custom-made Titan M security chip will protect what’s important to you.
Why worry about storage? Storage is virtually unlimited in the Pixel 3a, thanks to Google Photos. You can save all your photos and videos in high quality without worrying how much space they take up.
Google is at your service
One of the best things about a Google phone is Google Assistant. You can send texts, get answers to curly question, set reminders and much more. To get all the help you need, just ask, or give your Pixel a squeeze.
Pixel power
The battery promises upto 30 hours of life. Pixel’s Adaptive Battery learns your favourite apps and reduces power to the ones you use less often. Meanwhile, performance power comes from the Qualcomm Snapdragon 670 processor.
A newer model Google Pixel 4a 128GB was released in September 2020.

Google Pixel 3a review: A budget-friendly behemoth
The Pixel 3a is an unbelievably impressive phone, considering the price. Google has managed to retain all the things that made the original Pixel 3 great.

- Colour accurate display
- Impressive and unchanged camera
- Night Sight is somewhat unreliable
Google Pixel 3a review: Class meets cutthroat affordability
Google's return to the mid-range is a bold yet highly impressive move for the company. Punching through the flagship-killing market – potentially ringing the death knell for the regular Pixel 3 in the process – Google's Pixel 3a is the antithesis of what we've come to expect from cheaper variants of...- Camera is just as good as the Pixel 3's
- Significantly cheaper
- Superb colour-accurate display
- Battery life is only better than average
Real performance at a feasible price
I have been using the pixel 3a for a few days now. This is my second of the "nexus" lines of phones if we can still call them that. The last of the nexus line I had was the Motorola nexus 6, and I enjoyed the experience on that device as well.- Stock Andriod
- Camera
- Ease of use
- Ergonomics

Google Pixel 3a review: Less is more
If you can live without things like wireless charging, water resistance and the ability to take photos of the moon, there are almost zero reasons to look and buying anything other than the Pixel 3a. Google’s Pixel hardware has always been exciting - but it’s also always been expensive.- Incredibly good camera
- Headphone jack
- Compact form-factor
- Clean software
- No MicroSD slot
- No waterproofing
- No wireless charging
At Just $400, Google's Pixel 3A Nails What Matters Most
Google put everything that matters in these phones—for just $400.- Half the price of a high-end phone. Looks, works, and feels like plenty premium. Cameras rock, and Night Sight produces the best night shots I’ve seen. Doesn’t slip, slide, or break quite as easily as phones with a glass back. Fast charging. There's a headphone jack!
- Display does not stretch from top to bottom. No wireless charging. Mid-range processor. No MicroSD slot. Splash and rain resistant, but not waterproof.
Google Pixel 3a review
We’re not sure any of these are deal breakers, though, because what the Pixel 3a offers is a return to when Google made products for everyone. And that’s what this phone is. Instead of where the Pixel has been for the past year or so, sitting firmly in flagship territory offering the experience only...- One of the best cameras for a mid-range phone, Over 24 hours of battery life, Great value for a Google Pixel phone, Supports Google Pay (with NFC), Clean version of Android is always a plus, Feels surprisingly good in the hands

Google Pixel 3a Review
Google's well-rounded Pixel 3a is quite simply the best Android phone you can buy for $399. The Pixel 3a ups the ante for what we can expect from midrange smartphones. It offers many similar features to the $799 Pixel 3 for half the price. Sure, there are some concessions, but the value you get for your money is truly outstanding. For $399, the Pixel 3a offers solid performance, good battery life, a gorgeous OLED display, and the absolute best camera performance you'll find on a phone for less than $700. It's easy to recommend the Pixel 3a to anyone looking for flagship-level features on a more moderate budget, so we're naming it our Editors' Choice for midrange phones. Design, Display, and Durability What's different between the Pixel 3a and the Pixel 3? For starters, the Pixel 3 has a much more powerful processor, making it better for gaming and other intensive applications. It also has a Pixel Visual Core image processing chip, and a glass back panel to facilitate wireless charging. You don't get those things here. But let's focus on what you do get, and why it's suc...- Best-in-class camera
- Gorgeous OLED display
- Solid performance
- Excellent battery life

Google Pixel 3a review
We’ve long been fans of the Pixel range of phones. They may be fairly simple in operation and design, but you’re rewarded with excellent photos in a range of different conditions.
