They also appreciate its affordable price, long battery life, and user-friendly interface.

    Sharp lovely bright screen, good sound, fast and responsive. Only quibble is it's too easy to hit the home button instead of the space bar (this is my second attempt to leave a review due to that very issue-lol), aside from that really enjoying the upgrade from my note 5, battery life is ok, not fantastic but enough to get me through the day since I am a light user, phone also charges up pretty quickly. I am also enjoying being able to actually hear people on the phone, much better than my old phone, so far really liking this one.

    I love my new phone. My original Pixel XL was getting long on the tooth, my main problem was battery life, but my new phones battery lasts all day.

    Not Google search fan but love this phone! Phone broke suddenly early in pandemic when options were limited in store. Bought the last one of these marked down as successor model had been out a few months. Less apps I can't uninstall AND had two system upgrades in less than two years (to Android 12). Last phone had only one from Samsung and was almost twice cost so Google will be my next phone too.

    My pixel 3A xl is amazing. It has the best camera on a smartphone in the mid tier range. Works like a dream and I love the Purple-ish color.

    Good phone but...

    I switched from Samsung S7 to Google. I previously had a g2 looooonnnggg time ago, so this was a way step up for Google. I like the phone so far. The only thing I noticed bad about it is the speaker phone. Didn't realize that it was really low volume. Playback from YouTube and other content is really loud (on full volume) and good. Another big change for me is no buttons on the screen. I was really used to the buttons on the S7. But this is not just this phone, I know the newer phones all have full screen, no buttons now. Overall I would rate this phone 8.5 out of 10.

    I'm not a fan of spending a fortune on cell phones. With the 3a xl I get a phone with everything I could ask for at a reasonable price.

    best value for the price! This phone is a great deal because the Pixel 4 is brand new and this is not that much different. Almost half the price for near the same quality as the newer phone!
