Google's new Pixel 3a (and 3a XL)

So, after today's Google I/O announcement, we heard about the new Pixel 3a line up.

An economical variant of the Pixel 3 lineup.

The device will come at a bit of a compromise on specs to save you some dollars.  However, it still comes with that kickass Pixel camera!!

Check out a comparison of the specs below (or visit their site):

	Pixel 3XL	Pixel 3a XL
Size	6.3"	6.0"
Resolution	2960x1440	2160x1080
Processor	2.5GHz x4 + 1.6GHz x4	2.0GHz x2 + 1.7GHz x6
Type	Snapdragon 845	Snapdragon 670
RAM	4GB	4GB
Storage	64GB	64GB
microSD?	no	no
Rear Cam	12.2MP (f/1.8, 28mm, 1.4um, OIS)	12.2MP (f/1.8, 28mm, 1.4um, OIS)
Front Cam	8MP (f/1.8, 28mm) + 8MP (f/2.2, 19mm)	8MP (f/1.8, 28mm) + 8MP (f/2.2, 19mm)
Battery	3430mAh Qi	3700mAh
Released	October 2018	May 2019
Price	$999	$649

Essentially to save $350 you shave out Qi, the IP68 rating, downplay the processor a tad and dial back the resolution.

But, you do gain a wee bit more battery juice, and a headphone jack.

I'll have a bit of an opinion piece shortly!
