I got a used Pixel 3a on eBay 2 years ago. I’ve left it in the humid restroom and even accidentally dipped it in water to where the speakers got wet and blared. It dried off and the loudspeaker sounds normal again and everything still works.

Since then, I’ve also bought a used pixel 4 that developed a flickering screen and a used pixel 6 that overheated, Sim reader malfunctioned, won’t turn on anymore, and was declared unfixable at quikFix.

To be fair I also have a new pixel that I love the heck out of. But my go-to for using at home with wired headphones is the soldier, Pixel 3a.

    Loved my 3a every day I had it, until I “upgraded”. My son now rocks the 3a daily and has better battery life and similar performance to my 7.

    He also has unlimited Google photo uploads
