My 3a XL has fallen many of times without an issue (in a case) usually on laminate flooring or something relatively bouncy, but the other day I dropped mine on carpet no less and the OLED screen under the glass cracked and killed the screen. The glass on top was totally fine, but the screen underneath just had big crack across it and some rainbow colors.
I tried looking for replacement screens and they are out of stock all over the place and relatively expensive starting at $100ish from places I would consider more reputable and maybe 10% less elsewhere. I'm not sure if the lack of screens lends credence to how easily they break, but it certainly can't be used to disprove it.
- CoolGuySteve 6y agoI had the same experience, I bought an entire Moto G7 for the price of a Pixel 3a screen replacement.
- war1025 6y agoMy wife got a Moto G6 two Thanksgivings ago. I got a G7 this past Thanksgiving. I am really pleased with how well the phone works for the $150 price tag. I don't use my phone all that much, but I can't imagine a situation where I'd justify paying 3-5x that amount for a phone. The Moto G line seems to be perfectly adequate.
- novaleaf 6y agoI currently have a G6, after upgrading from a G4. Also have to agree the brand is a fantastic bang-for-the-buck.
- auxym 6y agoG7 would be perfect for me if only it had NFC. It seems you have to go into the 300$+ range to get NFC. Is is really that expensive to add NFC, or is it a marketing thing where it's considered a premium feature for product differentiation?
