Google Pixel 4a vs Samsung S10 Plus

The Google Pixel 4a and the Samsung S10 Plus are quite similar in terms of performance. However, there are a few differences -- especially when it comes to design and photography -- that can help you make a choice between the two. To help you decide, consider your usage habits and expectations in these areas.

Samsung S10 Plus, an innovative smartphone

In its 10th edition, the Samsung Galaxy S's design is refined and its performance is great. Its 6.4-inch screen is particularly pleasant in everyday use, and the design of this smartphone is clearly top-shelf. Its size will be very much appreciated by users who regularly watch videos on their smartphone.

It is also a good performer in terms of photography thanks to its 12 MP triple-camera module, which takes great pictures even in low-light conditions. The only drawback is that the front camera is located in the upper right corner, which makes for some uncentered selfies when you first use it.

As for storage capacity, the Samsung S10 Plus is available in two versions: 128 GB  and 512 GB. The Google Pixel 4a is only available with 128 GB.

Google Pixel 4a, excellent value for money

Introduced in 2020, this smartphone is considered to be one of the most advanced in its range in terms of photography. It has a 12.2 MP camera with a dual-camera system on the rear and particularly impressive processing. The picture quality is very good still to this day. It also offers excellent battery life, despite a slightly smaller battery than the Samsung S10 Plus. It might also help a little that the power consumption is lessened a bit due to its smaller AMOLED screen (6,2 inches against 6,4 for Samsung).

Another major advantage for the Pixel 4a 5G edition is that it is, as its name suggests, compatible with 5G technology. In addition, this smartphone will benefit from the latest updates from Google (including the next versions of Android), until 2023.

Lovers of modernity and cutting-edge design will undoubtedly be drawn to the Samsung S10 Plus and its XXL ultra-bright screen. Those looking for a good compromise between price and performance will find the Google Pixel 4a 5G to be the ideal smartphone. Especially since it is compatible with the latest 5G networks. It will also be able to benefit from the latest Google updates for a few more years.
