Review on Google Pixel 3a X-Large 64GB Unlocked Just Black (G020C) - A High-Performance Cell Phone with Ample Memory by Chiyo Ogawa ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Reliable product for all occasions, quality on par.

I would not have purchased this device if my Oneplus 3T had not crashed. The requirements were: oled screen, the smaller the better, clutter-free shell, NFC, the price is about 30 I chose between Oneplus 7 and Pixel 3a. I dismissed the first one because of the large size and weight, as well as the lack of a 3.5 connector and a stupid, in my opinion, cutout in the screen. The device turned out to be far from ideal, there are many complaints. But, alas, I did not find alternatives.

Pros
  • - the manufacturer in this model did not follow some industry trends: a screen with a cutout, no 3.5 jack, several cameras - excellent camera: you almost always get great pictures without much effort, there is a tracking autofocus, a very useful night mode, a good digital zoom - I still consider pure android as a plus, in comparison with shells from other manufacturers - I like the sound, both when talking and when listening to music
Cons
  • - the shape of the case turned out to be not particularly convenient: the width is 70.1 mm (compact by today's standards), but the edges are thick - 8.2 mm. In general, for some reason, in the last few years, phones have become thicker. - the camera has its drawbacks. The minimum distance from the object is ~ 8 cm, because of this macro is so-so. My previous Oneplus 3T was 5 cm. There was more detail in the pictures thanks to the 16 MP camera - of all possible forms of notifications when the screen is off, there is only AOD. Not the most convenient solution in my opinion: I would prefer not to show anything on the screen when there are no notifications. - weak iron is sometimes noticeable. There is a delay of a few seconds between launching the camera and taking a picture (with HDR+), launching apps takes a noticeable amount of time - high price. Reviewers (especially foreign ones) praise the phone for its affordability. I cannot agree with them. Google clearly does not want to even come close to the Chinese in terms of being stuffed with technologies with minimal prices. - Screen colors are distorted when viewed from an angle.
