    I moved from my iPhone 6s to this phone. The main reason I have stuck with iPhones for a number of years is camera quality and long term software support. These are two things that the Pixel 3a provides, and for 1/2 the price of an iPhone 11. The phone has a great screen, the performance is quick, photos are excellent, and the battery life is spectacular. For a ‘small’ phone with a ‘small’ battery, I get two days of battery life easily, and a full charge gives over 8 hours of screen on time. If google delivers on its promise of updates, they might have converted me. I’d recommend this phone to anyone.

    This is the pixel 3a and I bought it to replace the g4. So far this phone out performs that phone. The updated Android system is a plus as it loads apps well and we comment no problem. The battery life is good can go all day and some. I have only had the phone 1 month. The camera is very good. If there was one knock on the phone is the keyboard is small for big fingers but it can swipe well so that is good. Touchscreen very responsive. Color is good. I bought it on sale so for me great preformer and since it is unlocked I am anxious to see how it performs overseas.

    We finally gave up our $5 flip phones for these Google Pixel 3as. My husband and I bought these phones for ourselves and for my 93 year old mother. My mother is usually quite technically challenged, but she succeeded immediately with this phone. I couldn't believe it. My mother is not in the same state so all of my instructions to her were over a phone. Now she is after me to provide more apps and phone toys.

    I thought that getting a pixel 3A would be a bit of a change but they not only made it easy for someone that previously used a Samsung phone but they also made it easy to use if you've had an iPhone before. It has a lot to personalize which I like but that is how you can either make it a Google phone, iPhone or just like your usual Samsung phone. The battery life is nice but it doesn't charge in 15 minutes, you get roughly a 75% charge on 15 minutes if it's in rapid charge mode. I haven't had to charge it much since I bought the device but have indeed used it more than any other phone on a battery like this. I would buy a Google phone again for sure!

    Phone has a great screen, amazing camera, excellent battery life. I've come from using Nexus phones in the past until the Pixel line started as a Verizon exclusive. Moved over to a LG V30, decent phone but horrible user interface and even worse customization features. Everything I've loved about Android phones came back with awesome new features. Pixel phones also have excellent OS upgrade cycles. LG not so much. For the cost this is like a budget phone with flagship features. Works on AT&T just fine.

    I've had flagship phones, middle of the line phones, and cheap every level phones over the years. I never felt that the expensive flagship phones were worth the price, but the middle of the road phones always left me wanting a little more. Enter the pixel 3a. This phone is worth the price, simply for the camera alone. The battery life is excellent and the phone isn't bogged down by unnecessary software. Is you're looking for a no nonsense, plenty powerful phone with an excellent camera.... Look no further!

    Bought this to replace my wife's old iPhone SE. She'll need a few weeks to get totally comfortable with it but, as I have been an Android guy for Years, I'm here to help. I'm very happy with the speed, screen and the awesome camera. Took a bit extra to get WhatsApp running properly but that was the transfer from iOS that was the cause. Once I backed up her account, uninstalled and reinstalled WhatsApp, and registered her account, all was fine. Great value, especially with last week's $120 discount. Would buy it again.

    Love this phone. First phone I've had in a while that 1, didn't break 2, didn't crash 3, not super expensive. The brightest setting is bright. If you are on your phone alot you need to change it often and will over heat if you are on it in the sun. I got a rubber case for my phone, dropped it about a few dozens times, no damage. If I would have done that with my old phones, automatically crack. It's smaller for my hands, which i like because I hate huge honky phones. I'd get this again.

    I purchased this phone as I generally use the cheapest smartphones available but end up having to replace them yearly. I've had the 3a over a year now and it's still working like day 1. I am admittedly not a power user, so the 3a is perfect for me. I am able to get almost a full day of use on one charge. Using the provided charger brick, the phone charges very quickly. The camera is really nice and I appreciate the lack of any unnecessary apps that some manufacturers include.

    Fraction of the price. Sure it's a midrange phone with a midrange SOC, but as long as you're not gaming / heavily multitasking, I think the performance is fine. Great camera, nice battery life, and latest Android version updates are the main reasons I like this device. The screen does scratch easier than it's higher priced counterpart(s).

    Switched over from an iphone 7 so this phone was very different. Took a couple days to get used to, but it is very easy to use with a lot of unique features. I hate buying new phones because they are expensive, but this phone is great for the value and very affordable. The battery life is great and the camera is probably the best feature. I haven't had any problems with the phone, no lagging, or anything of that nature. My favorite feature is the fingerprint! Great phone for the money.

    I've had my Pixel 3a for about three weeks and I'm really pleased with it! I had a Samsung S7 for four years (which I liked) and it was dying on me. I refused to spend $800-$1,000 for a new cell phone. I couldn't be happier with it. It took a little time to get used to it, but I'm really surprised with how much I like it. I typically get 24-30 hours out of a charge - depending on how much I use it. Definitely the best value I've ever had with a cell phone. I highly recommend it!

    Hands down, best camera phone at this price point, maybe at any price point. It's fast, a good size, and decent looking. Recommended
