excellent mid range phone
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I was very happy with my OG Pixel XL phone, but it was at the end of its support life. I follow the cell phone industry so I was aware of the reviews for the 3a. I learned that the mid range SOC in this phone is about as capable as the SOC in my XL, a flagship phone 3 years ago that cost $800 new. BB was offering this phone for $300 and free set up in my local store. The phone is just what I expected and is quite good enough for my needs. I might have wanted a more powerful phone if I watched video on it, but I rarely ever did it on my XL and do not anticipate doing it on this one. I always put a case on my phone, so the polycarbonate body is fine for me, and tougher than those glass backed phones. The camera is excellent, the screen is very good and performance is smooth. The cell service from Verizon is reliable. I find the Bluetooth connectivity is better on the 3a. I believe it will serve me well for the next 3 years

Great phone
||Posted .I debated getting Pixel 3a or iphone XR for quite a while. Big sales were going for both phones. I got the Pixel 3a because I like the flexibility of Android, but mostly because the phone was less expensive. - -The Pixel 3a is much better than I expected. Battery life has been lasting two days. Camera is great. Integration with Google services is extensive and very useful. Stock Android is also really good. It did NOT look good in the store, but I find that it fits like a glove once you take take an hour or two to arrange widgets, launchers and settings just the way you want. I am not looking to switch to another launcher (which is something you can do on Android, but apparently not so much on Apple's ios). The phone is well reviewed on the web, but I think my local Best Buy did a terrible job promoting the phone. It is a tremendous value at the under $300 price I paid. Sadly, Best Buy did not have options for a case and screen protector in store ($40+ for a screen protector is ridiculous). Amazon has good options under $15.00. FYI, Pixel 3 items do not fit Pixel 3a.

Cleanest Operating Phone I've owned
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I've always owned Samsung, and generally they've been fine. But I just get tired of all the crapware they ship the phone, that you can't take off of it, and it saps the performance. Plus I'm just tired of spending alot of money on phones. I financed this one, I think the monthly on it is about $15 per month, acceptable. The phone however is by far and away the best phone I've ever owned. It's very fast, and very clean. The camera is superb, and it does have a 3.5mm plug on for wired headsets, their more expensive ones do not. That was a must. Not a lot comes on it, but you just load what you want. The camera btw is amazing. The phone is very intuitive and easy to use. My representative at Best Buy was very knowledgeable, I looked at about everything but I had done some research. It was easy to transfer all the data.

Small but mighty!
||Posted .Good budget phone with all of the perks and specs I wanted and more! The screen pops in colors, it functions smoothly, it charges fast and keeps a good charge all day and it takes fantastic pictures! Plus, it has the headphone jack and it isn't breaking my bank. I've went from Samsung, to a Moto to now a Pixel and so far the Pixel is my favorite!

Happy Customer
||Posted .I am a researcher who plows through volumes of information in making decisions, such as purchasing a new phone. While I cannot compare it to other phones on the market, this $400 phone has done everything I needed it too at a try-me-price! So far, I found it a good size for my hand; the battery lasts about two days with moderate use; and it includes some neat features. I mostly use my phone for communicating via voice and text, but I also read the news, listen to music, and play a game here and there. This amount of use would kill the battery in my old phone quickly, but the Pixel 3a keeps on going! I have only had it just over a week, but it does everything I need my phone to do. I have only taken a few photos, but the quality has been good, and the lighting adjustments worked well. The phone seems durable using it throughout the day in different locations. I like the squeeze feature as well! All Google means everything plays well together too!! So why only four stars, you ask? Well, one feature that seemed normal was voicemail. In every previous smartphone, I had the ability to select a voicemail and listen to it - i.e., there was an app for that. However, there is no way to access your voicemail on the Pixel 3a, so the only way to get your voicemail is to call your voicemail number... And, there does not seem to be a decent app in the Google Play Store. Being able to see your voicemail messages was a handy feature that seems to have disappeared. Please provide a simple app that allows you to see voicemail messages and play/pause/delete them OR similar to how I can see a transcript of a Google Assistant call's message by selecting the call, create a link to voicemail feature. Fix this and it is a 5-Star phone!

Great phone for $400!!
||Posted .Purchased the Pixel 3A to replace my LG V20. For $400 this looks like a great phone. I am done with dropping $40/month on a Flagship Phone... Read a lot of reviews on it, many said it had a great camera, which is what I wanted. I have not experimented with it much yet. Turning on the Pixel walks you through a setup which worked for everything except switching my Verizon Wireless phone number. I had to call and speak with someone, which did not take too long. The cable for connecting the new and old phones and transferring everything did not work. Probably an issue with the LG. Ultimately I used the Verizon Transfer app that worked great and moved a lot of stuff over. It did take 1.5 hours to move Pics, Videos, etc.

Great value, excellent performance
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.After using the same smartphone for five years, I was ready for an upgrade. After some searching, I landed on the Google Pixel 3a, and it was just the phone I was looking for. Slim and ergonomic, it offers standout features I didn't even realize existed, like the back-of-phone fingerprint scanner, the squeeze function to access Google Assistant, and the call screening option that I will miss terribly if I ever have to go without it again. I'm not much in the way of keeping up with the latest and greatest in tech, but the Google Pixel 3a introduced these great features to me in a user-friendly format that makes them appealing and easy to incorporate into my daily smartphone use.

Q: QuestionDoes Verizon add a monthly fee when you purchase a phone from Best Buy?
Asked by pjn721.
