Google Pixel 4a: My New Phone at $349

[Meengla]

As soon a Google Pixel 3a came out, I had bought it. It was around a year ago. I paid $349 for that. It was supposed to be a 'game changer' and perhaps it has been: A reliable phone with the vanilla/simple Android, great camera, good call quality AND a price-point which is a 'sweet spot' for the value. I have been very pleased with Pixel 3a except some settings I changed which has made the phone to make the 'butt dial' or play butt-music--I was too lazy to figure that out!

While Pixel 3a was excellent, I was running out of storage. I take a lot of pics/videos. Always had this habit. I can look back to when I was barely 12 years old and taking pics with those 'Diana' black and white cameras, which were not cheap and I still took lots of pics. So Pixel 3a's 64 GB was running out. Pixel 4a has come to the rescue. I got it barely 2 days ago and still figuring it out. Liking it. It is supposed to be Dual SIM but I have a SIM-Free Google FI account and so no need for SIMs.

My advice, if I may: Get a middle of the road phone like this! Stay away from the inflated Apple (you know I HATE Apple Inc!) or even Samsung high-end ones. Get a smart phone which has a great camera, has adequate storage, is reliable, is not bloated with junk apps and get one which is not over priced.

BTW, I have no Google stocks and I don't work for Google.

Here is a pic.

I have a LG V30 and I swear that my next phone is going to be an LG V40 or V50.

Your choice is very good. I am also a big fan of the Google Pixel.

The only thing I wished I purchased anything with a bitten apple on it was their stocks.. darn it.

I myself got a Sony Xperia XA1, which I plan on keeping for a few more years its got a decent camera (23MP) for some reason I seem to have a soft spot for the company probably due to the nostalgic walkman days..

Btw I just checked the specs on the pixel 4a.. GOOD CHOICE!

Bitten AND Rotten to the core Apple Inc! What a rip off!! Fools throw away good money to gain only marginal gains in quality. People forget the 'value' part of their purchases when it comes to Apple Inc products.

Good sentiments about Sony! BTW, Xperia XA1 has been my 'backup' phone (and the main phone till I bought Pixel 3a a year ago). It is still sitting in the house and now that Pixel 3a will become the backup phone, the Xperia is going to be given to family in the upcoming visit to Pakistan later this year. It is still in excellent condition!

Amazon has it decent price on Xperia: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06X9HVVC5
