    The device is nice but I do wish it had smaller bezels . Stereo speakers would be nice to justify such a big chin.

    Bought as a replacement for an aging Pixel 1. Turns out Pixel 3a is on average slower and battery life is worse than the original Pixel 1. This is in part caused by the bloat of the new Android 10, compared to Android Oreo that Pixel 1 was running. The only advantage is camera. If you don't heavily depend on Google ecosystem, go with Apple iPhone SE.

    Had this phone for a year now and it is still running and working great, used to have an iPhone but I love this one so much more. Normally I would end up wanting or needing a new phone after a year or two but I think this one will be staying with me for a while. Has also survived several accidental drops with a good case. Also have yet to run out of space or anything after a year.

    Purchased this phone for my son along with two others. He was switching from an iPhone 7 plus and decided to come back to android. We are all very happy with these phones. They are very smooth and the camera is amazing. Google is also pushing out some great features that are really useful. They seem committed to improving the customer experience on a regular basis. Purchased during the Black Friday sale time which was a great bonus.

    This phone is great for someone who wants a great phone at a great price. If you have to have the latest and greatest, you'd know all about this phone already. Why did I put that last sentence? Because I want this review to look like I know what I am talking about. You also have to remember that I didn't ask to write this reviews. Best Buy thought in their infinite wisdom that this would be a good idea. Just read the first sentence.
