Google Pixel 3A Cons:

The new Pixel devices are certainly overpriced from a middle-class consumer’s view. The rival brands like OnePlus, LG and Samsung offer far better processors than the SD 670 at a similar price range. The Pixel 3a/3a XL doesn’t feel premium because of the plastic build and they don’t have any other variants except the 4/64 GB variant. Also, there is no mention of dust/water resistance in any of the two devices as well which is a bit disappointing.
