Google has just revealed the new Pixel 3a and 3a XL mid-range phones, bringing its flagship Pixel 3 experience to a more affordable line-up of smartphones. The core experience is mostly identical and both phones feature a similar aesthetic to their flagship siblings, even if the actual build quality and devices themselves use different materials.

Both phones have the same awesome camera found on the Pixel 3, but some of the internal specs have been downgraded in order to achieve the lower mid-range price tag. Here's a closer look at all the specs inside the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL.
