Hot take: Google Pixel 3a and 3a XL By GSMArena Official

With, a new pixel, 3a and 3a Excel Google is adding to an age-old dilemma. Should you pick a new mid-range her or go with an older flagship instead for a similar price? Oh, and are these the new nexuses we've all been waiting for, albeit in pixel building, I'm glad for Jason marina here with a quick hot, take on Google's latest smartphones? The names aren't great. Let's face it, it's really clear what Google was going for here, adding a random letter at the end like Samsung, G and apples. Are these suffixes all wanted to think the same thing? Here's a cheaper light version of the flagship, but is that really true for the new pixels? They both have the snapdragon 670 chipset 4 gigs of ram 64 gigs of storage, Full HD plus displays with bezels like it's 2016 all over again. The pixel 3 is rear. Camera bigger batteries than the pixel 3 and 3 Excel.

For some reason and plastic builds. If you care about materials in your phone, that will probably be disappointing. But hey you get a headphone jack, the chipset isn't bad, but it's still a big step down from the snapdragon 845 in last year's pixels. The lack of wireless charging and IP rating are clearly cost-cutting measures, presumably necessary in order to reach those price points, $399 for the pixel, 3a and 479 dollars for the 3a Excel. If you really want Google's latest camera experience, this is the lowest entry point for that, since you can now get them from more carriers in the US, the pixel, 3a and 3a Excel might seem like an easy win, but it's not all great while Google's distribution is now better than it ever was in the States.

It really hasn't improved elsewhere. To add insult to injury, those bezels are huge even for midwinter in 2019, so the new pixels already looked dated. There are other mid-Rangers out there, with metal and glass backs to the 3a and PBL are smooth and have Google's trademark bloat free software experience with fast updates, but they can't really match a 20 team flagship in raw performance never mind. The fact that the smoothness might fade away in time if past pixels are any indication. Interestingly, some of those 2018 flagships are now getting really close to the price of the pixel via Excel, especially if you take the time to hunt who deals and when it comes to phones launched in 2017.

That's even easier one might be tempted to call the three a and three AXL the spiritual successors to the Nexus line, which paired mostly high-end specs with decent prices. But there is a very important difference with the Nexus. What you got was a top-of-the-line chipset and a decidedly not exciting camera. These things are flipped in the new pixels, where you have a mid-range chipset, but a top-notch camera, at least on the back. That makes for a pretty unique proposition at this price point and if you're, all about getting the best bang for your buck when it comes to camera quality, then look no further.

But if you want the well-rounded device that backs all the features, we've come to expect from a flagship, then you're, better off looking for a top-shelf, 2018 or even 2017 phone at a discount. Google can definitely do amazing things with just software most of its cameras. Accomplishments can be attributed to that, but software isn't everything and people across the world would also like a phone they can actually officially buy in their country a phone that looks like it's from 2019, not 2016, a phone, that's beautiful and not just capable a phone, that's exciting and not merely good enough being all things to all people are an impossible astronomic dangerous. So it's not astounding that the new pixels can't deliver on that. Even so, they will be good enough for a lot of consumers and should help push Google's Hardware efforts more into the mainstream.
