    We needed a replacement phone for my daughter who was still operating on the original Pixel. The Pixel 3a was a great deal at Best Buy on Black Friday. We couldn't be more happy - the picture quality is fantastic, and battery life is great too - she claims it's still above 60% in the late afternoon.

    Purchased a Google Pixel 3a and had it activated on my Verizon account. Associate transferred everything from my old Droid phone in a few minutes and it works great.

    I traded my old Samsung S5 with a literal twenty-second battery life for this phone, which has approximately 48 hours worth of battery life. Pretty obvious I'm in love, despite not owning for long. Great for the price. Would easily recommend to anyone with a modest budget.

    I've had it for about 5 months now. It mostly works very well but once in a while it has some bugs (texting will freeze, phone speaker cuts out, etc.) Nothing too bad but a bit glitchier than I would like. Camera is great though, as described. I'm not 100% sure I'd recommend it though, based on the issues. It is a good price so if you're on a budget and don't mind a bit of glitching, you're probably in good hands.

    I've had the Google Nexus phones since the 2nd version and moved from the Pixel XL tot he Pixel 3a. Googles Pixel line is great, and I love getting immediate updates that just work. The 3a offers flagship level features at a great price and I would recommend it to anyone.

    This phone does everything I need it to do. I great a deal during Christmas season that made it to good to pass up. I had the Pixel 2, but the battery life was less than a day. Now I get over 24 hours.

    I purchased this phone as a gift for a friend that has a 3 year old phone. He's not the techiest person, so I wanted to get him something simple that he could easily use with no learning curve. So far the 3a is just that phone. He's basically becoming an amateur photographer and does nothing but take pictures of his newborn and new puppy. The battery life has been great and overall he has definitely enjoyed the upgrade.

    I am still getting used to my Google phone since I've used all Samsung phones before. But I find its working well and much less expensive the Samsung phones. I'm happy with it.

    Was looking for a phone that would not cost an arm and a leg that had an excellent camera and did not force me to use Apples increasingly restrictive App Store. The photos from this phone are really nice and I have no complaints.

    Excellent phone with all updates coming directly from Google so we will always be first with updates. Great prices right now as they prepare to release version 4 but this version has all I need and is priced right!

    I had to replace my Samsung 6. This phone is very good and I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't want to pay the flagship prices. $200.00! was the best price for this phone.

    For the what they are charging for this phone I almost feel bad. This is just as good if not better than any high end phone and half the price. Buying anything else would be head scratching.

    The Pixel 3A is an incredible phone and a great upgrade after years with my Galaxy s7. It doesn't even feel like a middle priced phone, it has all the speed and power of a flagship product!

    Bought it during Thanksgiving and it certainly exceeded my expectations. The camera is definitely the highlight, pictures come out so well, especially the low-light shots.
