Google Pixel 3a
& 3a XL - #Helpful Post
the
iPhone 10r has been topping sales
charts
ever since its launch last fall
which
makes perfect sense
it
still has most of the things you love
about
a flagship iPhone built in but for
$250
cheaper
who
wouldn't buy an iPhone 10 our
Android
fans but we loved the idea which
is
why it's so cool that Google just
announced
the mid-range pixel 3a and the
3/8
XL with a killer value proposition
same
great camera an oled screen apple
and
a freaking headphone jack maybe the
only
bad news here is for google because
if
this is as good as it sounds there
might
not be much reason to buy the
flagship
pixel anymore let's find out
right
after we find out about our
sponsor
pulse weight with pulse way you

at the link below
the
first thing I noticed about the 3a
is
how much it feels like a full-on
pixel
device and and I'm a pixel 3 user
myself
it has the same two-tone finish
available
in just black clearly white
and
a new color purple-ish the same
titanum
security chip and all the pixel
only
features like summoning Google
assistant
with the squeeze storing
unlimited
pictures and videos at high
quality
in google photos and filtering
calls
with Google's new call screen
feature
with call screen your Google
assistant
will help you screen your
calls
so you know who's calling and why
look
it's a prince he wants to make me
super
rich but if we're comparing it to
the
more expensive flagship pixel 3
devices
just snort everything else about
this
phone is kind of a same same but
different
the
phones are close to the same size
and
weight as their flagship
counterparts
but they feel different and
that's
because the body is polycarbonate
plastic
instead of aluminium and glass
they
still have stereo speakers but one
of
them fires downward instead of both
of
them being front firing and while
they
have OLED always-on displays which
is
a huge bonus that I wasn't expecting
since
even apples budget 10 our uses of
LCD
these use dragon trail glass from a
Japanese
company instead of Gorilla
Glass
5 from corning from what we know
it's
just a scratch resistant but not as
resistant
to drops but we have to assume
that
the dragon trail glass is one of
Google's
cost-saving measures for this
mid-range
device one area that Google
did
not cut costs on was the resolution
and
pixel density of the displays which
is
fantastic at least on the smaller
pixel
3 and pixel 3 a unfortunately we
did
not get similar parity on the XL
devices
where the 3a excels pixel
density
is quite a bit lower the thing
though
is that some users might not even
notice
the difference because the 3a
xl's
pixel density is still higher than
that
of the iPhone 10 our a device
that's
explicitly branded as Retina spec
wise
the 3a devices have 4 gigabytes of
RAM
and base storage capacity of 64
gigabytes
just like the flagships
however
there are no 128 gig variants of
the
3/8 same same but different and
under
the hood
continues
the SOC has been downgraded
from
the snapdragon 845 used on the
flagships
to a snapdragon 670 but as
different
as those two sound the two
actually
have a lot in common both are
manufactured
on the same 10 nanometer
process
and both have eight cairo 360
cores
with some performance cores
clocked
at two gigahertz and some
efficiency
cores clocked at 1.7 the big
difference
is that the pixel 3 has a
50/50
split between efficiency and
performance
course while the 3a gets 6
efficiency
course and only 2 performance
ones
its integrated GPU is an Adreno 615
with
half the graphics memory but it was
still
able to convince pub G to choose
high
settings by default and round the
game
really smoothly in our tests but I
don't
think that most people buy pixels
for
the gaming experience they buy them
for
the OS which is the same great
Google
customized clean Android Pi
experience
on the new models and for the
camera
and it looks like that's not
changing
anytime soon you're gonna get
all
the great pixel camera features like
nitesite
super resume and even a new
time-lapse
feature and for the most part
the
experience is gonna be pretty darn
close
the pixel 3a has nearly the same
rear
camera as the flagship models so
the
12.2 megapixel dual pixel sony IMX
363
sensor is back but and this is
actually
contrary to the leaks that came
up
before launch is that the 3a does not
use
the pixel visual core which is a
Google
designed image processor that's
separate
from the CPU this is something
that
I thought was really gonna
differentiate
this phone and give Google
an
advantage because they can downgrade
the
phone CPU to a mid tier one and
still
have this awesome silicon that's
specialized
in helping the camera
outperform
the competition but it's not
here
so I guess by the good pixel if you
want
that if you're a selfie fiend
though
you might be bummed out about the
front
camera while the flagships have
both
wide angles and telephoto cameras
for
selfies the 3a has a single camera
that
kind of splits the difference spec
wise
as for video all pixel devices so
far
are limited to 4k 30 on the rear
and
1080 30 on the front whereas the
iPhone
10 are conduce 60fps at either of
those
resolutions and the 10 are clearly
pulled
ahead when we ran our quick video
stabilization
challenge it kept the
footage
smooth but without making it
unnatural
whereas the pixels introduced
some
jitter and our huawei P 30 Pro
looked
like it was mounted on the hood
of
a car on a gravel road not good
enough
so should you buy this phone well
I
can't believe it took me this long to
mention
it but it's kind of a big
selling
point both the pixel 3a and the
3a
XL Arunachala s-- phones they both
have
headphone jacks and thanks to the
reduction
in performance course along
with
actually bigger batteries than the
flagship
pixel threes they should get
you
better battery life - all of that
with
a very capable camera and for $400
less
than the flagship to me they both
look
like some of the strongest
mid-range
options since the Nexus 5x and
that
is some grade-a goodness you get
that
1 through 3 a grade-a do you get
you
didn't get you get it now he hates
it
but he doesn't hate dbrand
