Pixel 3a XL unboxing and hands-on review: benchmarks, camera samples, PUBG gameplay, and more By Mr. Phone

With, the slow and declining sales of the pixel three range of smartphones, the writing was clear on the wall. Google had to make an affordable smartphone that they could sell in large numbers enter the V oddly named Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a Excel. This right here in my hands is the pixel three AXL, and this is the pixel three XL in a case because they look very identical, but for all intents and purposes the pixel three AXL is a stripped down version of the pixel three XL with a lot of the good features intact. Hi I am a short from Mr. phone, and this is our unboxing and first impressions of the newly launched Pixel 3a XL. Obviously, if you've not subscribed to our channel yet don't forget to do that for more awesome, phone content and phone access, D content, so don't forget to hit that subscribe button and the villages right next to it to get notified.

Whenever we put out an awesome new tech video, we thought that we got this far. Don't stop now reaching for a distant star, don't stop! For all intents and purposes, the Pixel 3a Excel is a clone of the pixel 3, and almost 99% of the people won't be able to tell the difference between the two. But there are subtle differences that surprisingly, make it more useful. For example, you now have a headphone jack yay. Now the phone is made of polycarbonate and for its asking price.

I'd have ideally preferred the use of glass, but trust me. The polycarbonate back, looks and feels very premium, so much so that I was fooled into thinking that it is actually glass. The two-tone design language continues to be impressive from the rear and the buyers of this phone are not going to miss the frosted glass back of the pixel 3xl, also just for the sake of differentiation. Google has added an orange power button on the white gradient of the pixel 3xl, instead of the green one on the pixel 3xl. But it is the front that makes the Pixel 3a Excel feel like a phone from 2016 and not 2019 in the day and age, where even notches are dying.

We have two massive bezels on the top and the bottom. Anyway, the rounded edges of the display look, clean, and I have no concerns there. Also, since they're, not just absent. There are no obstructions to ruin your movie watching experience talking about watching movies, you do lose out of the HD+ resolution, but you get HDR 10 supported fit, plus on this OLED panel. It looks sharp and pretty color accurate.

If you ask me, but these are first impressions- wait for the full review to know more to complement the display. You also get a dual speaker setup for stereo audio. The earpiece doubles up as a speaker and the other speaker grille is at the bottom edge. Furthermore, the squeeze feature the excellent haptic feedback engine and the stereo speakers have also been imported from flagship, siblings. Google is really going for a complete premium experience through and through when it comes to the design and display of the Pixel 3a XL.

The pixel three AXL has the same 12 megapixel Sony, IMF, 3, 6, 3, camera from the pixel 3 on the rear and on the front you get a single 8, megapixel selfie camera with an 84 degree field of view. This is how Google wants to compensate for the lack of a dedicated, wide-angle, selfie camera. Also, the 8 megapixel selfie camera has a smaller F by 2.0 aperture on the lens compared to the F by 1.8 aperture lens on the pixel 3xl. All the cool features from the pixel 3 excels camera, especially Top, Shot and nitrite, are also available on the pixel 3, an excels app as well, and even the photos. Look very, very similar I have a detailed comparison of the 3 an Excel at the 3 excels cameras for you to get imagine you.

Differences of card should just pop up right now. Most of the differences are related to the focal length and processing speeds. Yes, the time it takes for the pixel 3 AXL to process images is slower than the pixel 3 Excel, due to the lack of the pixel visual core. Honestly, though, most people won't even care much about this time difference and if the end results looks so good, it doesn't really matter right. Do let me know what you think of the samples I, don't have to say it.

The pixel three AXL has a great software experience, thanks mainly to the fact that you get a vanilla, Android 9 by experience. It is clean and Swift and, most importantly, it works as fast as a dust of the pixel 3 which Snapdragon 845. Interestingly, the Snapdragon 670 inside the Pixel 3a Excel has made it to very few Android phones ever since Qualcomm announced it. As far as super mid-range chips are concerned, the Snapdragon 670 has a lower CPU performance. This is due to the fact that the high performance, cry 360 cores are clocked at a lower clock, speed of 2 gigahertz compared to the 2.2 gigahertz on the slap dragon 710. What you see on your screen right now is a handy comparison.

Chart of the difference in specs, however, the Arena 6 1, 5 GPU means that you get slightly better graphics performance compared to the snapdragon 616 and snapdragon 675 chips which come with arena 6, 1 -. What you see on the screen right now at the an tutu and 3d mug benchmark scores compared of the 670 against the 675 and the 710. So you will know what the difference in CPU and GPU performance is. I also played pub G for 30 minutes, and it was absolutely fine at high graphics, with no frame drops or heating issues. By the way you get only one radiant of the phone, with 4 GB of RAM and 64gb of storage and no way to expand it.

You also get a 3700 mAh battery and I have managed to get a decent battery life out of it in the limited time that I have spent with it. It is definitely much better than the previous pixel phones, which is the pixel 3 XL, which dies pretty fast in my opinion, but we will run a few more tests before we can give a final verdict and also talk a little more about the call quality and the network performance as well. So my first impressions of the pixel 3 Excel are generally very positive because you get near flagship, great performance, but the problem with the Pixel 3a Excel is actually the price. It is priced at two pieces, forty-four thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine for the Pixel 3a Excel in India, and the Pixel 3a is also priced at rupees, 40 thousand, so that makes it an expensive proposition and at that price range in India at least you get a lot of good options. For example, the one plus 60 is now currently available for around rupees.

Thirty-Three thousand so you know a phone like the pixel three AXL might go unnoticed by a lot of folks who care for specs more than anything else. Having said that, the camera performance on the pixel three AXL and the know incredible haptic feedback, all of it make it a very good proposition. I'll say that if you're watching from the US, the four hundred seventy-nine dollar price tag for the pixel three AXL is absolutely great, because there are very few options around that price range and at $400 the compact weighted, the pixel 3 an actually makes for an even better option. Anyway, apart from the price itself, the pixel 3 an Excel. When you take a look at all the great features that are on offer, especially that incredible camera, it feels like a cohesive phone through and through.

You cannot overlook this phone if you're trying to buy a smartphone in that price range, those are actually just my first impressions, so stay tuned for a full review. I, don't think I'm going to be reviewing it. Sri is gonna, be reviewing it, so you know what don't forget to subscribe to the channel and hit that Bell like it until next time.
