To ensure that the Pixel 3a stays within the $400 range, Google understandably had to cut corners. Like other cheaper phones, the phone isn’t exactly a looker and isn’t made out of premium material such as metal, and glass. However, as a recently posted video on YouTube shows, the Pixel 3a is a pretty robust device in its own right and that is quite surprising considering that the starting price of the latest Pixel lineup is less than half of what flagship handsets cost.

Zack Nelson from the YouTube channel JerryRigEverything decided to see how durable Google’s mid-range phone is and subjected it to a plethora of stress tests. The Pixel 3a uses the lesser known Asahi Dragontrail glass to protect the display instead of Corning’s Gorilla Glass technology and the test shows that the former is nearly as robust as the later. So, you don’t really have to worry about the screen getting scratched, but to keep your display looking pristine, you might consider getting a screen protector as quite like the Gorilla Glass, the Dragontrail glass is not scratch proof by any means.
