Folks, if you're interested in what comes in the box (not to mention a chill take on this phone), see my buddy Joshua Vergara's first look: ruclips.net/video/tmgbWXJSv9s/видео.html
All are good, but with that good of a camera, I expect them to have bigger storage capacity or better yet a microSD card slot (and no, I don't prefer google cloud storage). So, 1 big cons there for me.
Even if u have watched 100's of videos of same smartphone , After watching MrMobile reviews it feels like , why no one shared these points . Bang on Always !
@@mehulkalra2002 but not many videos on youtube shot at 18:9 and now most phones comes with weird aspect ratio like 19:9.5 combine with some kind of cut out.
Your reviews always feels like you're telling a complete story, with on point vocabulary, extremely good editing and a bg score to support it. Keep doing what you are doing! You are the best reviewer on YT
Just got mine, very impressed. biggest issues for me are no micro SD and its dim display. if Im inside, its fine but if I'm outside i have to crank it up all the way.
Came for MrMobile, Stayed for MrMobile. *Wait what-* all in for the camera. Google pushing the boundaries of what it means to have a "budget flagship" device.
Honestly, I would not really consider this an upgrade. You basically kept the same performance and got a slightly better camera. Should have just got the Pixel 3A man for as long as you held on to your phone or looked at the competition as companies like Samsung also take great photos.
@@dennisp8520 what about the 2 more years of software upgrades he'll be getting as compared to the og pixel? And also, the performance is better on the 3a than the og
Great video. I bought a 3a XL thinking "why not" for the price. I love it! I came from a oneplus (which I love) and find myself just using my 3a XL. The Pixel experience is so enjoyable on this device. Yes I wish there was more storage but it doesn't pull me away from using it.
I've had the pixel 3a since it came out, and I've got to say it's been a great phone, major upgrade from my past phones! (iPhone6, S7, iPhone8) I've experienced no lag or problems with starting the camera or video! Regarding battery I've gotten about 6 and a half hours of light to moderate use! About 4 and a half of heavy use using RUclips, music, games and social media. For $400 (now $349) I think it's a great deal! Won't upgrade to pixel 4 until they put a bigger battery and fix some things.. 😂 Rather have an s10 or iPhone 11...
I was so tired of seeing the spec wars but understanding US market and talk about it in a genuine way. That's only with Michael! Loved the review. Keep it up man
I bought this phone because I needed a better camera than the one my backup device had; I was going on a trip and knew I'd want to take good pictures. This thing is so good that I'm legitimately contemplating waiting on the Pixel 5 or 6 rather than jumping on the 4, like I was going to before I tried the 3a.
I love flagships. I have spent a small fortune on iPhones and Samsung Galaxy phones. I really wanted a pixel for a while and decided to try the 3a out. Damn,I love this phone. The size, the price, the camera... And the OS. I couldn't ask for more to be honest. Great video bro!
I've been fishing around for a very good backup to my s10+. This is definitely it. For myself the camera alone is worth the 399.00. No other mid-ranger has this fantasic camera. Plus a few goodies, stock android, the 3.5, OLED display & stereo speakers. Yep, well worth the price, great review!
First things first: to me you're the best among the best in this RUclips smartphone coverage. In video, audio, text, edition etc. Always a pleasure to watch your content. For me this is an amazing phone. I have been missing the good plastic hones since they basically gone. The joy of using a phone without the mandatory case. It adds a lot to the experience. Feels great. Liberating. Maybe even warm (lol). For the money, it's the best experience available today. The camera and the looks (I'm one of the few who prefers some border in my phone. Somewhere to hold the thing properly).
Thank you for clarifying "in the US". Shows Mr. Mobile actually cares. Painfully Honest Tech is correct, Mr. Mobile really does his research and produce well written content.
The LG G7 thinq has been $399 at t mobile for quite a while now... Snapdragon 845, all the features this phone is missing, like ip rating and wireless charging, for the same price. He didn't do that much "research" lol
@@Untanas I love lg and their quad dac but lg is trash at software and their cameras are good but not pixel good unless you shoot manual and most people don't care about specs ( in the us ) if it runs and doesn't lag that much that is good enough for them
With all the reviewers in youtube..theres something about Michael that stand from the rest. Honest, the words and power to convince is just wow. Kindly include Xperia 1 next up. Thanks
I think this phone is perfect IF you intend on changing phones in a year or two. The slower specs out of the box might not bother most right away, but after real life usage, over time, I suspect this phone will get outrageously slow. I'd say if you can shell out just a little more and live with not-the-best-camera-in-a-phone, you can get a lot more LONG TERM value for 550$ with the OnePlus 6T or last years now discounted flagships, like the S9. This is really only an option if your budget is very limited and you care about camera quality.
I know people who buy $1k phones and switch them yearly. Switching /buying a newer one from a $300 phone after 1 year isn't as heartbreaking or irresponsible. I actually felt wasteful and irresponsible for owning an iphone X for a month. That little thing in the back of my mind kept saying, this phone is overpriced and if I brake it, I'm gonna be very sorry!
I had a Nextbit Robin that had the Snapdragon 808, which was a step down from the 810. The 670 is in a similar bracket. It still was a smooth operator, and o think the 670 should perform ok as well. Especially with good Google software support
It runs stock Android and gets monthly updates. It's not like other Android phones who shovel a ton of crapware and skin on top and then never touch it again. The software has been optimized. How else to do think the Pixel 1 can still run Android 10 seamlessly all these years later (with the exception of battery life but that's to be expected on ANY phone after 5 years).
I'm not worried about that. My OnePlus One still performs well enough that I could use it everyday if I wanted. Pixel 3a has much better battery and camera, though, plus a fingerprint sensor for security, so that's what I'm using now. A phone doesn't usually become unable after a few years. The 600 series processors are really good.
Great review! As always, you're such a class act. I wish the phone is available here. Will you be doing a Asus ZenFone 6 review? Because I only prefer your review format and content. Lol!
Mr mobile is actually the best tech review channel. Sure, others have production value or 4K rigs, but you've got personality, Michael. And that beats all of those things in a heartbeat.
@@Agmbeats why would you go from a one plus 6 to a pixel 3a ? If its primarily down to the camera install Google cam from the XDA Developers site and see your camera quality significantly increase.
I listened to Michael and click 'subscribe' just to realise I am already subscribed! Damn RUclips, we need an option to subscribe TWICE for fans of this channel! This is the only channel where I play at the original 1x speed and wishing it'll not end soon.
I have a Pixel 2XL and a 3a XL. Oddly enough, I am enjoying the build of the 3a more because it's a bit lighter. As far as performance, you are correct in that I don't see much of a difference.
Have had the Pixel 3a XL for 2.5 weeks and I absolutely love it! Battery life gets me 2 days. The processor is no slouch for me and the camera has been amazing as well. Definitely two thumbs up from me.
Google was never going to be able to compete with the iPhone in the US. Glad that it's realized that and created the perfect successor to the Nexus series, which I've really missed.
I switched from a Galaxy S8 and I haven't missed it! I thought I was a Spec-hungry user, but this phone made me see I don't even use a Flagship phone to its full potential. This phone is just an incredible value over here in the States that is really hard to ignore it. Every person I handed the phone to was impressed when I told them how much it costs. This is a solid phone IMO!
Great review man. Seems like a great phone for my dad. He doesn't do anything too intensive with his phone but he loves to take pictures. He'd never spend $800 on a phone but this is definitely more doable.
Best pixel 3a review so far specially addressing the the difference in frames for dynamic range pictures between the pixel 3a and 3a and the why selfie portrait photos are different between them
I've had my 3a since July 2019 - I call it "America's Pixel" because it is sanely priced. It is unlockable by default - regardless of carrier. Android - either 9 OR 10 - is utterly dead-stock. The display is AMOLED and supports HDR - by default. I don't need wireless charging. Still, it has the fastest WIRED charger I have ever used - period. Even compared to Samsung. Right now, I'm running Havoc OS 3.1 "Unofficial" for the 3a, and I'm comparing it to stock Android 10 (so you don't need to abandon non-stock if your favorite ROM supports the 3a). Non-stock launchers aren't neglected, either; I'm still running Microsoft Launcher 6 (as I was on stock Android 10).
I ordered a Pixel 3a today. I'm upgrading from a Galaxy Note 5 that I've been using for the past 3 and a half years. It's been a great phone but the battery is about to bite the dust. I figure this is the best time to try a mid-ranger.
The only reason I wouldn't buy a 3A and instead use the S10e is because I need the power for emulation projects and lagless split screen. Both of which need a minimum of 4GB of RAM and a SD 845 or higher (855 in this case) Other than that, most casual users would be fine with the SD670.
Hey Mr Mobile ! Might want to think about revisiting this as the 3A just went on sale for $120 off ! $279 for the 64GB 3A, just grabbed one and a set of pixel buds. I know the 4a is coming hopefully now in June, however as an iphone user this is the perfect opportunity to try it out for cheap money. I always watch your reviews. Keep them coming
I love how Mr Mobile understands his users needs. Trims away all the finish and keeps the core quality when advertising for users who want a good phone that prioritises function over form.
I have lost touch with your reviews lately but you don’t realize how amazing your videos are until you have been lost in RUclipsr world. Great review and thanks for showing a phone that isn’t a glass fragile sandwich. Oh it would be so nice to have a phone you didn’t have to constantly worry about breaking. 🙏
Ever since using the SD625 and the Moto Z Play, I stopped caring as much about the processor. But also since using the Moto Z Play, I stopped caring as much about image quality too. I find it's something reviewers over emphasize - it's only one app of many!
I talk to a lot of normal (i.e., non-tech) people about phones. Four out of five of them care about the camera and battery life more than anything else.
@@TheMrMobile I just wish there was a better way to compare battery life. That's my number one and while the Moto Z Play performed, the Huawei p20 pro is underperforming. 🙃 Thx for the reply & stay mobile!
I got a Nokia 6.1, battery life is great on the Snapdragon 630, performance respective. But I do wish for a little more oomph and better camera. When this phone wears out, in getting the 4a or 5a, whatever it will be
I bought the Pixel 3a a few weeks ago and love it. Why did I buy it? The price and the camera! It's a GREAT value. I don't care about a glass back, the latest processor, and wireless charging. So I agree with the trade-offs Google made in order to make the phone affordable, while NOT compromising on the camera, which is crucial to me. So I agree 100% with MrMobile -- thanks for your review and keep up the great work that you do!
MrWhoseTheBoss is an awful channel, he has a strange fascination with obscure chinese phones with horrible levels of bloat and suggesting they're the best phones on the market despite mediatek. That and he's pretty much Huawei's puppet
Benn well i think that he is you know reviewing fones which an ordinary man could buy because not everyone can buy a 1000 dollar plus fone. Everyone has his own views but I think his style is very good
I will say this again.... from the release of snapdragon 660, midrange changed.... nowadays mid range & flagship is not so big differences even during heavy usage.... I used google maps continuously in a sd660 phone, it gave me same fluent performance as the flagship chips... which is unbelievable even for 1yr ago standard... nowadays midrange chips came a long way....
In love with how it feels in hand, beyond comfortable coming from phones with 6in+ screens in my past. Going case-less but with a screen protector on my Pixel 3a
The content quality is top notch as always. Love your work Michael. Sad that this channel doesn't have many subscribers not that this channel needs but the subscribers need this channel. ❤️ From India
Google has proven it's possible to offer a stellar camera at almost any price tier. This is a bold move, it will be interesting to see if the rest of the industry follows
I have the Note 10. I just purchased the Pixel 3a XL for $359 signing up for Google Fi! At that price I can keep the Note and enjoy all the features of Fi with the Pixel. The money I am saving from switching from T-Mobile will easily pay for the phone. I had the first Pixel when it came out and I loved it! Can't wait for that crispy camera, plugging my mic into the headphone jack (and my nice headphones), and to see how the 3a compares to the Note 10. I appreciate your videos Michael! Oh and cool first name.
It's tough with this one and some other manufactures as well. Google releases Pixel 3a and 3a xl half a year later at $399 but on Ebay you can get a regular 3 possibly a 3xl for $399 most likely brand new. I got my S10 new on Ebay for $650 about a month after release. The best thing to do is to release all the models at the same time, so there will be a price gap everywhere. Yea some people rather get there phones directly from the carrier or manufactures website, and then OK the price gap will be there no matter what but when you find out you can get the higher end model for much cheaper on 3rd party sites, you realize that you should have gotten it there.
@@RelyingWOrld1 I have the 3a and had the regular 3 for a while. Even side by side, the difference in performance for almost all tasks was nearly unnoticeable. 600 series are really good processors and you get much better battery life.

Zach Kaiell it's Bette due the price because of the features it offers
Very very compelling review. Outstanding.
The only reason I wouldn't buy a 3A and instead use the S10e is because I need the power for emulation projects and lagless split screen. Both of which need a minimum of 4GB of RAM and a SD 845 or higher (855 in this case)
Other than that, most casual users would be fine with the SD670.
Hey Mr Mobile ! Might want to think about revisiting this as the 3A just went on sale for $120 off ! $279 for the 64GB 3A, just grabbed one and a set of pixel buds. I know the 4a is coming hopefully now in June, however as an iphone user this is the perfect opportunity to try it out for cheap money. I always watch your reviews. Keep them coming
Your best video till date. Just love how you mix things and make connection.
I love how Mr Mobile understands his users needs. Trims away all the finish and keeps the core quality when advertising for users who want a good phone that prioritises function over form.
Another brilliant video ❤❤ Love Form Pakistan
I have lost touch with your reviews lately but you don’t realize how amazing your videos are until you have been lost in RUclipsr world. Great review and thanks for showing a phone that isn’t a glass fragile sandwich. Oh it would be so nice to have a phone you didn’t have to constantly worry about breaking. 🙏
Ever since using the SD625 and the Moto Z Play, I stopped caring as much about the processor. But also since using the Moto Z Play, I stopped caring as much about image quality too. I find it's something reviewers over emphasize - it's only one app of many!
I talk to a lot of normal (i.e., non-tech) people about phones. Four out of five of them care about the camera and battery life more than anything else.
@@TheMrMobile I just wish there was a better way to compare battery life. That's my number one and while the Moto Z Play performed, the Huawei p20 pro is underperforming. 🙃 Thx for the reply & stay mobile!
I got a Nokia 6.1, battery life is great on the Snapdragon 630, performance respective. But I do wish for a little more oomph and better camera. When this phone wears out, in getting the 4a or 5a, whatever it will be
@@deansmits006 might as well just sell it now and get a 3a with the proceeds
I bought the Pixel 3a a few weeks ago and love it. Why did I buy it? The price and the camera! It's a GREAT value. I don't care about a glass back, the latest processor, and wireless charging. So I agree with the trade-offs Google made in order to make the phone affordable, while NOT compromising on the camera, which is crucial to me. So I agree 100% with MrMobile -- thanks for your review and keep up the great work that you do!
Why aren’t his subscribers increasing? He and mrwhosetheboss are the best on youtube i think hands down.
MrWhoseTheBoss is an awful channel, he has a strange fascination with obscure chinese phones with horrible levels of bloat and suggesting they're the best phones on the market despite mediatek. That and he's pretty much Huawei's puppet
Benn well i think that he is you know reviewing fones which an ordinary man could buy because not everyone can buy a 1000 dollar plus fone. Everyone has his own views but I think his style is very good
No Mr Who's the boss was ok but has just gotten worse with being facinated by Huawei.....
Your voice is love...i dont need caption its so clear.
I will say this again.... from the release of snapdragon 660, midrange changed.... nowadays mid range & flagship is not so big differences even during heavy usage....
I used google maps continuously in a sd660 phone, it gave me same fluent performance as the flagship chips... which is unbelievable even for 1yr ago standard...
nowadays midrange chips came a long way....
Nice job Michael. This is also the best phone you can buy for $650 in Australia. Well played Google
S9 $600-$700 anyone?
Michael @mr.mobile that's the pixel 3a review I've seen and my personal favorite out of your videos ! Cheers
Agree completely man. Love the video thanks for what you do
You included a Futurama reference, I like Futurama references.
MrMobile is to Iron Man as Michael Fisher is to Tony Stark! MrMobile has that charisma that I haven’t found in any RUclipsr period. ;)
If RUclipsrs were to ever play in the Avengers, then MrMobilie would most probably be the Iron Man
He was a RDJ look a like be RUclips
In love with how it feels in hand, beyond comfortable coming from phones with 6in+ screens in my past. Going case-less but with a screen protector on my Pixel 3a
Excellent camera, headphone jack, smoked screen, 3 years of update,Take my money!
The content quality is top notch as always. Love your work Michael. Sad that this channel doesn't have many subscribers not that this channel needs but the subscribers need this channel. ❤️ From India
Picked up a Slickwraps Skin
Sir, you are becoming one of my tech channel favorites. Great quality. Cheers!
Sadly it's expensive af in here. Starts around $550
Where are you from? Indo or malay?
Arif Rizky Read the title...
Google has proven it's possible to offer a stellar camera at almost any price tier. This is a bold move, it will be interesting to see if the rest of the industry follows
Nobody else can seem to match them on the software side of the camera yet.
Oh how I miss having a headphone jack 🙌🏽
Even though I would never buy a pixel as I’m team Iphone all the way , I enjoy watching “tech porn “ that you produce , bro. Keep it up
Awesome video
"I love it... and I think you will too"
Apple fans: :O
Patrick Bushnell I’m an Apple fan, but if I had the extra cash to get a secondary android device, I’d get this one 👍
I have the Note 10. I just purchased the Pixel 3a XL for $359 signing up for Google Fi! At that price I can keep the Note and enjoy all the features of Fi with the Pixel. The money I am saving from switching from T-Mobile will easily pay for the phone. I had the first Pixel when it came out and I loved it! Can't wait for that crispy camera, plugging my mic into the headphone jack (and my nice headphones), and to see how the 3a compares to the Note 10. I appreciate your videos Michael! Oh and cool first name.
0:18 I had to check if he actually said Tech P*rn but he did. 💔
He also said "boner", lol
It's tough with this one and some other manufactures as well. Google releases Pixel 3a and 3a xl half a year later at $399 but on Ebay you can get a regular 3 possibly a 3xl for $399 most likely brand new. I got my S10 new on Ebay for $650 about a month after release. The best thing to do is to release all the models at the same time, so there will be a price gap everywhere. Yea some people rather get there phones directly from the carrier or manufactures website, and then OK the price gap will be there no matter what but when you find out you can get the higher end model for much cheaper on 3rd party sites, you realize that you should have gotten it there.
Check the mrwhosetheboss battery test. The 3axl beat out every other phone
Well it has a SD670
Check out the mi9t
Thanks for cutting the typical tech glam shots intro and getting straight into it 😉👍
Because the review is what we're here for.
Get Pixel 2 XL instead. Same camera better phone,same price.
Worse screen, worse battery and no headphone jack.
@@kacperuminski1547 Minimal, Nope and who cares.
Three weeks now with the 3A and it's still an excellent phone. Highly recommend also Michael.
I love plastic, whether it's done right or not, cuz I love my phone lighter.
I got the Pixel 3 base model on Black Friday last year for $400. It's all about the deals.
Good deal
Pixel 3a = 2019 Version of the Nexus 5
At least Nexus 5 was a flagship in the specs (apart from camera)
World1, I would say the 3a is the better trade off. Better camera more useful and noticeable than flagship CPU, as Fischer said
@@RelyingWOrld1 I have the 3a and had the regular 3 for a while. Even side by side, the difference in performance for almost all tasks was nearly unnoticeable. 600 series are really good processors and you get much better battery life.
Best review of this phone
