Pixel 3a vs Pixel 3: Camera Comparison Test! (4K)

[@AuthenTech]

Woot, finally here, what do you guys think?? ** Follow me on IG for behind the scenes ➜ instagram.com/schmanke

[@masumsajib9262]

is it possible to capture 360 degree video on Pixel 3 phone?

[@clintml7557]

I choose for pixel 3 because processor

[@echoems]

you addressed the auto focus and fixed focus on the front facing cameras of these two, something not too many tech reviews mention. i'm subscribing! 👍

[@MrEdu-cj2vl]

3a wins: Stabilization, Low light, Slow motion's color. 3 wins: Photo (better contrast), Video (better contrast), Front facing wide angle, microphone.

[@Blueshirt38]

Thanks for the quality comparative tests. I really don't mind trading $400 for not getting a second selfie camera. Glad to see that the photo/video processing doesn't really take a hit on the 3a.

[@jcdulos1]

Thx for the upload. When the pixel 3a came out I was intrigued. I was using an iphone 8 and made the jump to pixel 3a. This was the video that helped me make the switch. I'm glad I did. Love my phone. Had it over a year and its still going. Mg wife is a professional photographer and she admits the camera is better than her iphone.

[@descai10]

The differences were so small it could've just been down to quality control, if you're in it for the camera the 3a is amazing.

[@clintml7557]

Yes if you are only seeing for camera, but not the game

[@mikaelamakoto5857]

Thank you so much! Finally someone reviews the VIDEO part of the cameras!! Would have loved to hear the mic quality in a quiet environment, but that's okay! Also, with a headphone jack, the microphone could get better with the in-mic option on earphones!

[@AuthenTech]

Maybe I'll have to add a quiet room audio test next time, thanks

[@hinata3473]

pixel 3a 😍

[@terrytung19]

Dare I say 3a looks event better in some pictures, and the same on the rest.

[@lalitcamp44]

It is amazing that they put the same camera in $400. I see no difference in photos. However, i believe there is a difference in the videos. The 3 it better in videos.

[@jamiljohnson3653]

Pixel 3 a is your winner same photo at a lower price is a great deal for me.

[@LoveTech]

It feels like a no brainer to ME. 400 vs 800, for the same camera and camera processing.

[@bazwillrun]

exactly...glass back, who needs it, wifi charging meh, who needs it..$400 still in your pocket, I'll take that

[@nikkoXmercado]

The 3a picking up more wind noise is a thing. I used to make KZbin videos with my *Pixel 1* and even though there was constant wind most of the time I never really had any problem with the audio. Now I use a *Pixel 3a* and with the same windy circumstances I get the rumbling wind noise 90% of the time, which again on my Pixel 1 wasn't a problem.

[@SaiyaraLBS]

Thanks for confirming this

[@DavidAlfredoGuisado]

It is worth noting that using camera apps such as Instagram or Snapchat will yield poor quality photos on the Pixel 3a and 3a XL as these apps rely on the Pixel Visual Core which is only available in the flagship models.

[@Sam-wc7uo]

I learned something today.

[@Cypherus21]

Was going to buy an S20 Ultra and settled on Pixel 3a that produces 95% of the quality that S20 Ultra pics are producing in the reviews, and being 1/4 of the price as the Ultra.

[@reidnachtegaele3023]

Its nice they didn't slack off on the camera for the 3a because this could be the selling point on the 3a

[@AuthenTech]

Yea absolutely

[@gentle246gy]

They need massive improvement on the video to challenge the iPhone and improve battery capacity and pixel 4 XL is for me

[@muhamaddikiwahyu8687]

Bro, you look like the singer Coldplay

[@adithyanpp2006]

really appreciate that ..see you soon with other stuffs thanks for the information ........!!!, personally i like "pixel 3a"

[@randllthreatt4982]

I love my 3a! It's the best phone I ever purchased for it's amazing price, coming from a Galaxy s9 that wasn't bad but my pixel outperforms it

[@desmondsingh8495]

how does it out perform S9 ?? i am thinking of 3a, can you please give me your input on this?

[@atrocitus9198]

lol. how tf 3a outperforme s9 ?

[@pikijuiyii777]

Expect a phone call from google. " you're hired "

[@GaryJahman]

Hi Ben, nice video again! Are you going to do a Review/Comparison of the DJI Osmo Action VS GoPro Hero 7 Black and maybe add the YI 4k+ as well? :) I was looking at a lot of footage and I found that the Osmo has almost same image quality as the Yi 4k....

[@AuthenTech]

Yes definitely! Working on that one now

[@6058jeremysmith]

Great video Ben 👍 Thank you !

[@AuthenTech]

Thanks!

[@Sam-qg1dy]

So.... U didn't mention the elephant in the room; how much slower is pixel 3a hdr processing?

[@24kekw]

the title says camera comparison

[@ImStiickii]

I'm also curious about the load/processing time difference

[@aditroitz]

@@ImStiickii of course 3a will slower, mid-range chips...

[@marksouthwell4490]

That's only real difference between the two cameras really , the processing speed . The 3a isn't really that slow , maybe a micro second slower

[@mountaineering6108]

Спасибо! Полезное сравнение!

[@cuttingedgecool7235]

Great comparison!

[@JZMartinez]

Amazon Prime Day makes the 3a and 3a XL a sweeter deal. Thanks for the vids!

[@ChordifyMusicLabel]

without regards to the price ..3a is for photography for its sharpness constrast..and the other one for videography which has the good color tones and not over sharpen...but of course if price is the matter ...3a is the best

[@bingbong6578]

You should do a review of the ozmo Action cam. Do you think it’s a GoPro killer?

[@AuthenTech]

That one is coming soon! Not sure if it's as good as the GP7, but it's even cheaper and has some nicer features

[@bingbong6578]

AuthenTech - Ben Schmanke thanks!

[@Moon420]

Can't take you seriously like the Pixel 3a stabilization was way better in front and you say they both look same? srsly?

[@twistedmusicvideos2845]

pixel 3 in low light better clarity and sharpness against 3a

[@alvarogvdltgarcia52]

Pixel 3 is the winner for me.... More accurate white balance, less image blur, and a dedicated processor? No phone can beat it for the price, plus it has a snapdragon 845.

[@ChristopherJohnston]

In the landscape type photos I noticed a lack of contrast in a lot of 3a photos.

[@feelsaxelman]

For the average user just wanting some landscape pictures for Instagram while on vacation, it does really well.

[@Davideberti]

You missed the video test at 1080p 60fps.. the pixel 3 has Better quality, the 3a Is terribile as pixel 2

[@nbs8534]

Sir, Which one has a longer battery life?

[@tomkent4656]

The 3A has 3.5mm audio input, whilst the 3 doesn't. Also, the 3A doesn't do wireless charging nor will it take additional SD storage.

[@forchun88arrereh50]

Mine is pixel 3,thanks for this sweet review

[@jeerasakphaosricharoen7167]

love your review 👍

[@ClickerDipper]

Really good comparision !!

[@origamis9477]

I felt sick looking at the left (3a) when you or the person moved in the film, but 3 didn't give me that car-sick feel. Looking at the plan (in canada), I can get google pixel 3 for just $150 more so I'm going for 3. google 3 definitely was better in the movie, but not so much difference in the photos. I

[@shnukms]

didn't you have a case on the 3a? wouldn't that contribute to the wind noise?

[@AuthenTech]

Very interesting and good suggestion... Wouldn't the case help shield the wind, not make it worse though?

[@k3lvin1977]

Great video, just what I was looking for. For my eyes the 3 looked slightly better however when you take cost into consideration the 3a wins for me. Thanks again Update My 3a arrived today 👍

[@snakez1747]

congrats on your new phone, how is it holding up?

[@k3lvin1977]

@@snakez1747 it's great! 50% + battery by time I get home from work and the pictures are amazing. Software just works with some really nice features. I don't play games so can't comment on that but no issues with switching between apps, everything just works.

[@matteo909]

Look at the 3a at 3:15. It's creating a jelly effect. Is that from the pixel or from KZbin compression?

[@RajeshKumar-lq5sm]

Does pixel 3a have night vision mode as in pixel 3? Or can we download and use it from the Play Store

[@liyoshiyona]

Wait 02:16 ufo caught on google pixel ? 😂

[@kevsart2376]

very good tutorial ,I think the Pixel 3a has more resolution than the 3 ,I just got the 3a ,thanks

[@shenkuulover]

You can see a small variation between them. Pixel 3 has more life to it It's like the 3a does 90%. Almost perfect. Though what I wish is that Google reduce the image processing time. It takes more than 2secs in image processing

[@Wuchtamsel]

If you "detect" that in a blinded scenario I'll buy you a pony, psycho.

[@soubhikbhattacharya7473]

Most detailed camera comparison that I found in KZbin.. thanks buddy

[@AuthenTech]

Thanks!

[@faisaladnas471]

Can imagine if pixel got 2 or 3 camera with good quality sound record... they top on market

[@AuthenTech]

Maybe it'll be greatly improved on the upcoming Pixel 4

[@PraveenKumar-in4ht]

Okay , why would anyone prefer Pixel 3 range if one getting the stock Android phone comparatively with less price tag? Just because of this Camera ? Is that a deal breaker ? 🤔🤔 I still don't understand what makes people to buy this. I personally used all Pixel phones and even used few Android One phones and apart from Pixels camera everything looks similar. I didn't feel any difference. Okay I agree that Android One phones have mid range specs but for an average consumer that's okay. Please let me know about your views on this guys 😊

[@minukarodrigo]

Btw I own a Nokia with better audio recording and cheaper than Pixels

[@whiteninjazx6r]

We all know the cameras are identical. The 3a will achieve the exact same image, but if there is any post processing to said image, it will be slightly slower. Pointless video.

[@YuvrajSingh-rs9fd]

Google is selling pixel 3a in India at price tag of 650 dollar... estimated

[@sarius2388]

What does this have to do with the camera test

[@sempre_sid]

Why don't you have any test with Samsung Galaxy S10?

[@nikhilgiramkar4910]

Great video.. very helpful

[@Lame_Kiwi]

what if the difference between this two is 100$ ? which is better for that value?

[@tecnikstr0be]

So if one the camera on the rear of 3a is the same quality as the regular pixel 3 XL?

[@WillNewcomb]

But what about camera lag on HDR, Nightsight where the 3 had to 'think' for a bit while doing AI processing? The 3a has a slower chip, so slower camera processing? It's not just about the end result but how it got there.

[@teamkilo1]

This vid confirmed the front camera on my Pixel 3a is washed out

[@PraveenKumar-fs6of]

3A is Big for my Liking/Hands . I wish it Could Be As Compact as Pixel 3.

[@bazwillrun]

When the differences are so hardly noticeable then it becomes academic....take a pic and then look at it on 5 or whatever different PC and or laptop screens then it becomes totally irrelevant as all screens will be showing colours differently...sitting at my main PC and my Dell utra sharp then the 3 looks marginally more saturated, but that doesnt mean its true color as if i was there, maybe the 3a was a truer representation..who knows...who cares , the pics and vids from the 3a are way above the quality needed for the vast vast majority of people in the majority of situations and usages

No point. They've got arguably the best camera w a single lense. There's many OEM w dual cameras and it still doesn't compare. Google is probably lazy and cheap.
