Why I LOVE Pixel 3a XL! By Nick Ackerman

It may not be the best phone on the market; it may not be the most cutting-edge design, but I do love this device, and let me explain why, so what is up guys, Nick, you're up, and you'd a Messier technology? Why I love the pixel 3ax out now? First, I want to say some people are going to say you know it's not for 79 in the U. S. it's for 79, if you're, not in the u. s. , it's probably a little more, so you know you could probably have a different perspective on every other. This is a budget device depending on where you're at, but in the u.

s. This is definitely a lot cheaper than most premium phones. Keep in mind. This has an OLED display. So this is the first reason why I really love this device at this price point getting a 1080p which is pretty good resolution, 402 pixels per inch, the iPhone 10 R, doesn't even have a display the sharp or this quality here with the know, OLED panels so perfect stuff here on the Pixel 3a XL when it comes to you its OLED screen.

Now, what I found is that if you keep this thing in the boosted mode or the adaptive mode, you'll get a little better saturation, but a natural. It's a really less. You know less than vibrant display, so keeping one of these two for the best experience. What you'll notice is you'll, get really deep blacks and perfect colors when in video. So if we're watching a video here, so I can see here a pixel 2 vs.

, iPhone 10 camera comparison, you're, just seeing perfect colors here in very dark blacks, look at the blacks right there, just really deep blacks, that's what you get with an OLED screen, very vibrant, so the display is definitely a thumbs up for the pixel 3 AXL. Next up is I've been pretty impressed with the processor performance. This thing actually does very well and performance for having a snapdragon 670. It's not gonna, feel slow whatsoever and honestly, unless I was comparing it side-by-side, I didn't really even think about not having the snapdragon 845 or 855 in here. Yes, you don't get the best synthetic benchmark scores if you run this through a benchmark.

You're going to get pretty low scores for 2019, but still this is not targeted as a premium phone, so it's acceptable. The Google OS. On top of this, the stock version makes this very smooth, so I actually think this feels almost like flagship phone in regular usage, so I don't think most consumers buying. This will be disappointed whatsoever with the performance and that's a good thing for this device fix up. I love the six-inch display, because a six-inch display does give you a pretty good size.

It's not too monstrously large and not too small. Where you're you know desperate for a little more screen space. So this is a pretty good size. It's kind of like galaxy s, 10 iPhones, 10, R size right here for the Pixel 3a XL. So definitely like the size, it's a little wide.

So if you don't like wide phones, you might not like this, but still perfect size at 6. Inches I, like the peace of mind that the polycarbonate shell offers with the pixel 3ax I know. Yes, you could say no wireless charging I'll never buy a plastic phone again. This feels pretty good quality for the money I mean it doesn't feel super cheap. Yes, it feels cheaper than glass.

Phones, don't get me wrong, but it doesn't feel like a cheap garbage phone. When you do hold it, it feels like a little substantial. It's got a decent amount of weight to it, and it feels pretty solid like if I drop. This I wouldn't be scared about it. You know braking or anything like that.

I would put a screen protector on this, and I would just use this phone without a case honestly, because I'm not nervous about the back of this device, but if you're going to keep a long-term. Of course, you want to put a case on it, so protect that camera right there from getting cracked next up is the headphone jack. Now, at this price point I'm sure, a lot of people are probably not buying the Sony headphones, the Microsoft headphones, the Bose headphones that are Bluetooth and all those you know, Bluetooth devices they might just still have an old pair of headphones with a wired connection and having this on the Pixel 3a XL is something that made me love this device a little more I, also love that this phone doesn't have a match. Now, I do realize that this design is conservative. It looks a little old, but I never really liked to obtrude I really either like having you know, minimal bezels.

This is not super huge I mean I've, seen bigger bezels than this I think its conservative design, but I think the software makes up for this design, not being you know the most cutting edge, looking or just kind of looking like a pixel to XL. To be honest, now I love this phone because of the vibration motor in this device. So when you are like typing on this phone, it's super easy to feel a very strong vibration through the keyboard, as well as when you just click home right here. So if I am typing in this document and something you're not going to see here on screen, but you feel it a lot, so the pixel 3ax saw has a very strong vibration motor, that's a great thing as well. Now, of course, I do love the camera on this phone.

It has the pixel 3 camera sensors now that the photo results aren't quite I'm, seeing as great as the pixel 3 XL, but they're right there, like it's very minimal, like it might be this minimal, if I could show it visually in terms of the result different. So for the money, this is probably the best camera you can get. Hands-Down here is a picture with some color in it, and you could see definitely perfect results. Let's go over to the next photo swipe over. This is a sunset.

Just take a look at the dynamic range. The quality is there for the pixel 3/8 exile. You're going to have a hard time beating this camera at this money. Now there's a selfie quality. You can see.

Selfies are very strong in here as well. You do lose the wide-angle front-facing selfie, so that you might not like if you wanted a wide-angle selfie, that's kind of exclusive to the pixel 3 and 3x so but at the same time the selfie quality is very good, so I don't think it's going to bug too many people. Now I took a picture of some birds just kind of flying away right there, but you can see just look at the color on that OLED screen the detail is there I mean software is really doing great stuff. Here you have nitrite. You have portrait modes here which also worked well, you have 4k 30 video I mean this thing.

Has it when it comes to the camera? So definitely consider this. If you want a great camera at a cheaper price point, one of the reasons I loved it is that it gave me a premium camera experience at a not so premium price I. Also, like the always-on display for this phone now, this is not exclusive to the pixel, but having always on display is always a nice touch. In addition, I like that this phone has NFC onboard, you can use this for Google Pay, and it's going to be very reliable and FC. It's something you don't typically find on phones at this price point, so NFC perfect stuff.

Here. Next up the squeeze assistant feature. What's the weather like today, so it's pretty nice in Chicago, but you've seen the squeeze feature is awesome for this device. Bluetooth 5.0 is onboard as well. I love that about the Pixel 3a XL and I thought that the speakers on this phone one up here and one down here, we're actually quite loud.

So that's a good thing as well. They didn't skimp out on the audio, so you could see plenty loud if I cover it up, you can still hear it. I cover it up. You can still hear it. Yes, it's not as full, it's not as rich as even thousand-dollar phones, but still dual speakers, not bad here for this device and I like the placement of the fingerprint sensor, I, don't think it's a bad location! If you like it on the front, you might not like this phone, but I think if you're going to put it on the back.

Google has put it in the right place. Your finger kind of naturally just rests there, and it has this nice little swipe gesture to bring down notification, so I kind of like where it's at, if you're going to have it on the back, they put it in the right place here for the three AXL and finally battery life on this phone. I wanted to save the best. For last, because battery life is just excellent. I'm, going into the next day, I'm getting around five and a half hours of screen time, it's better than the pixel three and 3x I'll need, I say more: we don't need to say much more.

This phone can go. The distance heavy users will have no trouble getting through the day. Finally, I love that you can go ahead and have an easy time fixing this phone as I fix it as torn it down and has claimed, but this phone is not that bad. It's pretty easy to fix. Actually the Google Pixel 3a XL.

So this is a good long-term phone. You got security updates. You got a plastic phone, so it probably won't. Furthermore, you know, have a problem breaking you have to pay these prices to have it fixed because it's a glass back, you have easy repair ability scores. Furthermore, you also get this pretty cheap I! Think it's a good value phone right here.

Yes, it's not cutting edge, it's not the latest and greatest design, but for what it offers. I think this is gonna, be a pretty good option if you're willing to try the Android experience or if you had you know an older Android phone from a while back, and you just want something a little more modern, but you're like no I'm tired of these $1000 price points. I am putting off. Upgrading now might be the time with you Pixel 3a Excel. So what are your thoughts about this? One comment them down below: do you think it's a great value? Think it's a horrible value.

Do you think it's awesome, I personally, love it for what it is I mean I, don't think it's the best phone out there, but for what it is I do love it? It's a good sign for things to come this. This can be a good sign, for you know cheaper budget flagships to come in the future. Anyway, if you guys found this video helpful entertaining and forming.
