This phone is the best phone I have purchased yet! Coming from an iPhone 7 plus, this device has WAY better battery life (getting around 7 hours of on screen use), stock Android is the best operating system out there for mobile in my opinion with great customizability, and timely security and software updates (something that you can't say about most other Android devices). Then there's the camera, which is probably the best camera you could possibly have on your pocket right now! It takes some of the most detailed, color accurate, sharp images that I think could rival a DSLR camera! I Think it's priced just perfectly as well because at 399 for the 3a and 479 for the 3a xl, it can do everything a Samsung Galaxy s10 plus or iPhone Xs Max can do (or even do it better) for less than half the price! And if you activate the device through Sprint right now like I did, you receive a 100 dollar discount!

I'm one that stayed up-to-date on the latest offerings from the tech community. However, the prices have gotten too out-of-hand for me to be interested in staying informed. This device meets my expectations.
Recently, I dropped it on a concrete floor for the 4th or 5th time and finally broke the LCD; not just the glass, but the actual display. I didn't have a case for it because that's how I see the purpose of this phone.
It's solid, plays the games and browses the pages that I request; all for a realistic price. This phone is the best offering YET (since the Nexus series) from Google. They finally managed to offer something reasonable for its purpose.

This my first Pixel. I have always had Samsung phones. I am floored by the features and responsiveness of this phone. From the integrated call screening feature to the quality of the camera. This phone is the best I have ever owned. The price was also a big factor in my purchase. Best Buy once again had the best price, beating Sprint by well over $400. The after sale service was just as great as the buying experience. The Staff had my phone up and running within 15 minutes. Tip 'o the hat to Best Buy!

Definitely worth the money. Loving the pure Android experience. If you feel that it's laggy in comparison to other phones, change the animation rate and it'll optimize the performanc.
The camera is great, so much that I haven't even felt like carrying my beloved Fujifilm X100F.
The battery lasts all day, so much that I dont miss my old phone and it's wireless charging.

The phone is quick, has a great camera, and very good battery life. It also has stock Android which feels good and snappy. There aren't any other extra features. Coming from a Galaxy phone it's a little weird to have such a basic phone but I am getting used to it. Overall I really like the phone.

My previous phone was a Galaxy S7. The battery hardly made it to noon. In addition, the glass back broke 3X in 2 years. I purchased my Pixel 3a XL 2 weeks ago. I charge it overnight, play on it all day, and it still goes 24 hours on a charge. The polycarbonate case makes WAY more sense than glass for something I use all day. And the camera... Outstanding!

Last year's model but still a good phone. Could not get best buy web page to let me buy it without sending text to old phone which was dead. Legacy in San Antonio would not take my info over the phone to buy it. Wanted me to walk up. Sorry do not want coronavirus. Ended up clicking on page to have sales rep call me. Someone in a Michigan store called me, took my info and payment and arranged for me to pick up phone at Legacy. Then Legacy did not install sim card or put it in the box. Instructions said it was installed. Finally found sim card under label Legacy had put on box.

Google maps and navigation automatically show on dash of my car and handle calling is great. Squeeze phone to give voice commands. Camera: night vision camera is amazing. Love auto unlimited photos storage and editing tools. Like G apps. Awesome at $380.

Seems great so far. Battery life is good.
I'd considered the Pixel series phones before, but couldn't justify the price, the the Pixel 3a is much cheaper than the normal ones.

I primarily got this phone because of the camera and the discount. Good price if getting the discount. The battery doesn't last as long as my previous phone otherwise I would have given 5 stars.
