Google Pixel 3aXL (4GB RAM- 64GB ROM) 4G LTE Smartphone – Just Black

Google has traditionally competed in the high-end smartphone market with its Pixel series, so the Pixel 3aXL, introduced as an affordable alternative to the Google Pixel 3XL, is a notable shift in strategy for the company.Launched at Google IO 2019 alongside the Pixel 3a XL (the lower-cost version of the Pixel 3 XL), the Google Pixel 3aXL shows the company is trying to expand its customer base by offering phones at a lower price point than its flagship devices. Until rumors started circulating this year we weren’t expecting Google to release affordable handsets any time soon, and we wouldn’t have expected a handset that’s launching at the Pixel 3aXL’s price point to be as impressive as it is. In many ways, the Google Pixel 3aXL is a total surprise for its cost.With many features inherited from the Pixel 3XL, like its cutting-edge camera and Active Edge squeeze function to launch Google Assistant, the Pixel 3aXL seems a serious rival to its older sibling. Sure, there’s a small specs drop, but there’s an even bigger price cut – so does the Pixel 3aXL make the Pixel 3XL redundant?The Google Pixel 4 is on the horizon too, with the company revealing its own product in an attempt to drum up interest, so could the Pixel 3aXL show us anything about Google\'s future smartphone direction?  DesignTo look at, the Google Pixel 3aXL could easily be confused with the Pixel 3XL – it has a similar-looking body with rounded edges and screen corners, and the same two-tone rear design, with the top of the phone is reflective whereas the majority of the panel is matted; however, on the Pixel 3XL the material used for the rear is glass whereas here it’s plastic – the first clue to the 3aXL’s budget statusThe similarities extend to the placement of the rear camera and flash on the left of the phone’s back panel, the volume rocker and power button on the right side of the handset, and the USB-C port at the bottom of the device. There’s also an extra port, and it’s a welcome addition. On the other hand, there\'s only one front-facing speaker instead of two, so media played on the Pixel 3aXL doesn’t reach the bar set by the Pixel 3XL.One of the most useful features of the Google Pixel 3XL is Active Edge, which lets you squeeze the edges of the handset to summon Google Assistant, and this is also present on the Pixel 3aXL, which is something we didn’t expect given the lower price. It did feel a little harder to press than on the Pixel 3XL however, so we found ourselves having to squeeze quite tight to use the feature.Rear Camera12.2MP dual-pixel1.4μm pixel widthAutofocus with dual pixel phase detectionOptical + electronic image stabilizationƒ/1.8 aperture76° field of viewRear Camera Video1080p @ 30fps, 60fps, 120fps720p @ 30fps, 60fps, 240fps4K @ 30fpsFront Camera8MP1.12μm pixel widthƒ/2.0 apertureFixed focus84° field of viewFront Camera Video1080p @ 30fps720p @ 30fps
