    For the price you can't beat this phone. The stock Android os is uncluttered and the camera is excellent. I would highly recommend if you're looking for a high quality phone at a more budget friendly price

    I have purchased two pixel 3as. As a mid range phone it is an excellent choice. The camera is great and much better than anything else you might find in this price range. Personally I wish battery life was a bit better but I think that's true for almost all new phones.

    Had to replace my Pixel 1 phone and this was a reasonable priced high quality phone... I can't see why anyone could justify a $1,000.00 iPhone or Pixel 4 when this phone is available for a reasonable price.

    I like this phone. Nothing flashy but works fine for basic use. I would give it five stars but this is the second one I bought and the first one got pretty bogged down after about a year. Hoping this one will last longer.

    Excellent Non-flagship Option from Google

    I purchased this phone to replace an aging 1st generation Google Pixel. I was looking for something that was still within the Google ecosystem but didn't break the bank and this fit the bill very well. It has a fingerprint scanner, which works decent and was a must have feature as I wanted to keep that from the original Pixel. The phone performs and has performed well since I have received it. I had to get used to the "wider" aspect ratio when watching videos but that hasn't been a big issue. Overall, the performance has been rock solid for the year that I have had it thus far and it is the best budget device that you can get from Google hands down.

    Great Value - Fingerprint Sensor & Fast Charging

    This phone is a great value if you can buy on sale for less than half the price of the more widely popular brands on the market. Two particularly nice features of this Google phone include the fingerprint sensor located on the back of the phone and the fast charging capability using the specific charging adapter that comes with the phone. Multiple fingerprints can be stored, any of which can then be used to unlock the phone using the fingerprint sensor on the back. This is very convenient when you want to unlock your phone quickly and not have to type in a PIN code every time. I've also found that the fingerprint sensor actually works better and more consistently than the fingerprint sensor on our iPad.

    Instead of making 30 payments on a 9 hundred phone, I bought the pixel 3a for less than half the cost and US Cellular activated it for me on my same plan. Phone is fantastic and no problems with service. Thank you

    I didn't want to spend the money for a Samsung Galaxy S series or an iPhone, and the Google Pixel 3a provides nearly the same quality for less than half the price.

    Good value although you get what you pay. Front and Back very prone to scratches, recommend screen protector at the very least. The camera is where it’s at. Been using iPhone X and the camera on the 3a demolishes it.

    The phone is snappy for a mid range phone and most of them should buy it for the awesome camera. The single camera on the back works wonders. Only gripe is that the battery could have been a bit bigger and some might have trouble getting through the day without charging.

    Pixel A series is where its at!

    Still going strong almost a year later! Hard to beat the Pixel A series phones. With the 4a and 4a 5G now out those are great upgrades, but if you could snag one of these 3a's in great condition or even new, it would be great. It doesn't come with a Gorilla Glass, Ashi Dragontail, but slap a tempered screen protector on it and you're good to go. The Purple-ish color is a far cry from purple, white with a tint. If you roll without a case, the back is plastic, but it is quite slippery. It's not large in hand so it is easy to grasp and its not so slippery like trying to hold on to a bar of soap, but one-handed use could be easier with a case.
