This article is designed to highlight the most important results of our testing.Changes to the chipset and image processing can impact the overall photography performance, though, so let’s see how the Google Pixel 3a fares under the rigors of a full DxOMark test. Google has stuck with broadly the same camera module for all of its Pixel 3 and 3a models, however, which includes a single 12.2Mp sensor coupled to a 28mm-equivalent f/1.8-aperture lens with optical image stabilization (OIS). Moreover, the Pixel 3a isn’t IP68 rated for dust and water resistance like its more expensive stablemate. There’s also a slight difference in screen technology, with the Pixel 3a featuring an OLED display, compared to Pixel 3’s newer P-OLED LCD. The key difference is the chipset, with the less expensive Pixel 3a devices running the more mid-range Snapdragon 670 processor, compared to the top-end Snapdragon 845 chip in the Google Pixel 3. Launched in May 2019, the Pixel 3a is the budget-oriented version of Google’s flagship Pixel 3 smartphone, available with a 5.6-inch display on the standard version, or with a larger 6.0-inch screen on the XL model.
