What an exciting time to be a Google fan! On 8 May 2019, Google concluded their I/O 2019 keynote with updates about their latest products and platform innovations. Speaking of latest products, the Google Pixel 3a made its official appearance in Singapore at Google HQ offices and many are saying it’s the best value phone in the market. Could it possibly be? Is there any truth? Who would dare make such a claim? Well, we’ll be finding out sooner or later, but for now, let me bring you up to speed with what these Googlers have been busy with.
GOOGLE PIXEL 3A & PIXEL 3A XL – BEST VALUE PHONE ON THE MARKET?
The Google Pixel 3a made its official debut in Singapore today and I got to be the first few invited to try it out at their launch event.
Straight out of the box, the first thing I noticed was how much lighter it was compared to my Huawei Mate 10 phone (186g). At 147g (the Pixel 3a XL is 167g), you probably wouldn’t have to worry about your face smarting when you accidentally drop your phone on it.
Setting up the phone was a breeze and the Quick Switch Adapter feature came up. This allows you to quickly transfer most of your data from your old phone to your Google Pixel 3a. Nifty.
At the launch event, presenters highlighted some key features of the Pixel 3a, and I must say I was quite impressed. At its price point, the phone actually has an OLED display – something usually only found on flagship premium phones.
