    I had this phone for almost 2 years, I dropped it in a river and it survived after drying out. The camera is very good and the battery life is also very good.

    Bought this for my 12 year old and he loves it more than his antiquated IPhone 5, my handme down to him. It has a phenomenal camera and plenty of apps! Light weight, and priced reasonable 399.00$ unlocked

    Great phone at this price, the purple-ish color is incredible and the camera has been spectacular so far. Battery life is good and I am enjoying the upgrade from the original Pixel

    for $299 with activation, this phone is just right for the price. The processor speed is fine, and the camera/screen do well together. I haven't tried to print any photos, and have rarely used night photography features, but in the daytime, this phone does very well.

    My teenager uses this phone for all his school work. Google docs is easy to use and the battery life is great. Be sure you get a case though. It fell out of his pocket and the tile floor cracked the screen. I believe Google should replace but I'll fight that fight.

    This phone is fast. Overall, it is more than enough for people to play games, surf the web and take good quality pictures. Most likely would buy another one as a present during the holiday season.

    I researched heavily and knew the most important 2 aspects were value and size. Pixel 3a does the job perfectly. Easy one handed operation plus good specs and top notch camera. A Great Best Buy!

    I read reviews and I read reviews, from individuals and from the experts, and this phone stood out. The camera quality at this price was a big selling point for me. I am still getting used to it, so I am not commenting too much about some things. I was expecting a bit more zoom on the camera, but that is on me for not totallying understanding the stats. The pics do look great though and the blur and wobble I have had in the past with other cameras does not seem to be a problem with this phone. My wife dislikes the phone on button if she picks up my phone. Her phone has a press button, this is a touch, so when she presses it, it does not go on for her. It is a simple thing, but just a heads up for something you may need to get used to doing. My wife is about to buy the 4a since I have been so pleased with this one.

    The Pixel 3a is a great phone for someone who doesn't want to spend a lot of money. Great features, easy to learn how to use. My old phone was from the dark ages and I figured the Pixel out easily.

    As somebody who came from the Galaxy line of phones, my first thought was that this phone would feel underpowered. But that fear was laid to rest once I started using it. Of course, you'll take a while getting all the latest OS updates, but when you do, Android 10 runs like a boss. This isn't the model for you if you need wireless charging or expanded storage, but I've found I've never used wireless charging when I did have it, so no big loss there. As many other reviews have said, the camera is amazing for a mid-tier device. I can't believe how well a night shot on the streets of Chicago turned out. So this is the model for you if you still need a decent single-lens camera.

    Best camera ever. Quite fast. Using for last 1 year didnt hang. Screen is very bright and vivid. Well the screen is not scratch proof. Battery is good. Fast charge is the best part.

    The only feature this phone lacks is any kind of waterproof or water resistance. The camera is amazing. Being a Google device means updates and fluidity that $800-$1000 phones have lacked. For $400 or less the camera alone is worth every penny.

    If you are on a budget and dont want to spend $800.00 dollars and up on a phone, then this is for you. It also doesnt hurt that it has the same high quality camera as the flagship google pixel 3.

    Purchased because moto x4 audio on phone calls stopped working. Was looking at the prices of the Pixel 3a phone for black friday at $299 but moto x4 didn't fail until after the sale was over. Purchased for $399. One week later it was $100 off! Went to store and BB reimbursed the $100 because I was in my return window. Nice! Overall the phone is working well. Lightweight, easy to handle, screen is bright enough, camera opens fast and has the portrait mode amongst other modes, and people can hear me when talking during phone calls. Looking forward to all the direct updates from Google instead of waiting and wondering when Motorola would update the OS.
