Google - Pixel 3a - Just Black (Verizon)

I love the layout, the sleekness, the fast speeds, the clarity, everything!

Bought this phone because we needed mine to get a good deal on my son's new phone. It does everything I need it to do and the battery isn't bad either! The camera is phenomenal and I really don't notice a difference in speed at all. This phone is really good and would recommend it to anyone who doesn't want to pay the crazy flagship prices! Can't wait to see what the 4a is like!

I was very happy with my OG Pixel XL phone, but it was at the end of its support life. I follow the cell phone industry so I was aware of the reviews for the 3a. I learned that the mid range SOC in this phone is about as capable as the SOC in my XL, a flagship phone 3 years ago that cost $800 new. BB was offering this phone for $300 and free set up in my local store. The phone is just what I expected and is quite good enough for my needs. I might have wanted a more powerful phone if I watched video on it, but I rarely ever did it on my XL and do not anticipate doing it on this one. I always put a case on my phone, so the polycarbonate body is fine for me, and tougher than those glass backed phones. The camera is excellent, the screen is very good and performance is smooth. The cell service from Verizon is reliable. I find the Bluetooth connectivity is better on the 3a. I believe it will serve me well for the next 3 years

I debated getting Pixel 3a or iphone XR for quite a while. Big sales were going for both phones. I got the Pixel 3a because I like the flexibility of Android, but mostly because the phone was less expensive. - -The Pixel 3a is much better than I expected. Battery life has been lasting two days. Camera is great. Integration with Google services is extensive and very useful. Stock Android is also really good. It did NOT look good in the store, but I find that it fits like a glove once you take take an hour or two to arrange widgets, launchers and settings just the way you want. I am not looking to switch to another launcher (which is something you can do on Android, but apparently not so much on Apple's ios). The phone is well reviewed on the web, but I think my local Best Buy did a terrible job promoting the phone. It is a tremendous value at the under $300 price I paid. Sadly, Best Buy did not have options for a case and screen protector in store ($40+ for a screen protector is ridiculous). Amazon has good options under $15.00. FYI, Pixel 3 items do not fit Pixel 3a.

Photos are fantastic, great battery life, and relatively easy to get used to. Shipping was a bit of a problem as there was a communication error with UPS and three package want initially sent. Customer service was polite and helpful and another shipment was created. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase

Good budget phone with all of the perks and specs I wanted and more! The screen pops in colors, it functions smoothly, it charges fast and keeps a good charge all day and it takes fantastic pictures! Plus, it has the headphone jack and it isn't breaking my bank. I've went from Samsung, to a Moto to now a Pixel and so far the Pixel is my favorite!

For the price, the phone is amazing. The camera is the best I've had, touch is responsive, and apps run fast. It lacks an SD port so memory can't be upgraded and all the pre-stored ringtones and alert chimes are super fruity, but neither are real problems if you can manage your storage well.

I am a researcher who plows through volumes of information in making decisions, such as purchasing a new phone. While I cannot compare it to other phones on the market, this $400 phone has done everything I needed it too at a try-me-price! So far, I found it a good size for my hand; the battery lasts about two days with moderate use; and it includes some neat features. I mostly use my phone for communicating via voice and text, but I also read the news, listen to music, and play a game here and there. This amount of use would kill the battery in my old phone quickly, but the Pixel 3a keeps on going! I have only had it just over a week, but it does everything I need my phone to do. I have only taken a few photos, but the quality has been good, and the lighting adjustments worked well. The phone seems durable using it throughout the day in different locations. I like the squeeze feature as well! All Google means everything plays well together too!! So why only four stars, you ask? Well, one feature that seemed normal was voicemail. In every previous smartphone, I had the ability to select a voicemail and listen to it - i.e., there was an app for that. However, there is no way to access your voicemail on the Pixel 3a, so the only way to get your voicemail is to call your voicemail number... And, there does not seem to be a decent app in the Google Play Store. Being able to see your voicemail messages was a handy feature that seems to have disappeared. Please provide a simple app that allows you to see voicemail messages and play/pause/delete them OR similar to how I can see a transcript of a Google Assistant call's message by selecting the call, create a link to voicemail feature. Fix this and it is a 5-Star phone!
