Reviewing the Google Pixel 3a XL, a sub-£500 mobile boasting strong value for money and one of the best camera phones of 2019. Here's everything you need to know about the performance, battery life, specs, and how it is to use the Pixel 3a XL as your 'daily driver'.
I've been a strong critic of Google's smartphone strategy ever since it ditched the Nexus brand and launched the Pixels. These super expensive handsets are almost immediately dated because they're released just before Qualcomm updates its Snapdragon flagship platform, and lack the killer features of most (cheaper) rivals from OnePlus, Oppo and others - beyond the brilliant camera results.
However, the Pixel 3a and this XL model have turned things around. You get the same slick Pixel launcher, smooth performance (even for gaming with the likes of PubG Mobile), plus excellent photo and video quality, for half the price.
Check out my full review of the standard phone, which I prefer over the XL version - despite this handset offering a bigger battery. You can also see my full comparison to see exactly how these new phones stack up, as well as my Pixel 3a XL vs 3XL video.
