so in my hand i have two of the top tier mid-range phones
in the game right now in one hand i have your iphone se 2020 the champion
of iOS. In the other hand i have the upstart
google pixel 4a baby this phone is definitely legit
but only one of these phones is a 2020 contender for smartphone of the year so
which one of them deserves your hard-earned money stay tuned
to the video
what's up people this your boy Vyyyper, the man about tech
captain of team apple baby back again for the video
and yes i got two of the heavy hitters in the mid-range
game the iphone se 2020 and the google pixel 4a
before we begin the video shout out to google for sending out the pixel 4a
for marketing and review purposes i appreciate google this is a gift from
google so google did send the phone out to me
the iphone se i brought with my own hard earned cash
so there you go so let's begin this video
by talking about design now you know your iphone se 2020 right this
is your grandma's iphone this is the same body style that iphones
have been using since 2014. bruh do you see the bezels on
this iPhone? let me open up an amazon thing real quick so y'all can see the
bezels i mean these bezels are kind of
ridiculous by now i mean good god 2014 call grandma wants her
bezels back! Do you'll see this stuff see you
see this you got bezels you got the single camera design on the
back you got the fingerprint sensor at the bottom here on the front for the
iphone definitely legit you know all about that now this google
pixel 4a is kind of new because for even for a
350 phone you got a almost completely
bezel-less front display i mean look at that does that not look good
that is definitely a 2020 design so the pixel wins with the display
also it has a single camera lens on the back that other thing on the back that
you see for the flash so that's cool and it has the
fingerprint sensor on the back but one of the cool things about the
Pixell phones is that they always have this accented power button on the side
so we definitely like that always a good look with the pixel devices
so that's cool also your pixel 4a has a usb-c
charging port on the bottom whereas the iphone stays tried and true
with the lightning adapter on the bottom with the lightning port
on the bottom I mean excuse me very much but that's what you get with iphones
and pixels so hey do you want your phone to have the old grandma
bexels from 2014 or do you want a more modern looking phone
that google bringing it to the table with the pixel 4a you make your decision and
get back to me next let's talk about build quality now
this one is pretty close actually although it is kind of interesting
because the iphone is an all glass and aluminum
phone. you got glass on the front aluminum on the sides here glass on the back
so this feels better in the hands it feels more premium
but the Pixel 4a is no slouch in the build quality department baby no
no no no so you got glass on the front you got polycarbonate which is a fancy
word for a plastic on the back but you got this matte
plastic finish on the back feels good in the hand doesn't produce
fingerprints unlike your iphone SE 2020
fingerprints dirt grime oils all over the place you don't get that type of
stuff on a Pixel 4a but this looks so
sleek it looks 2020, it looks a bit more it
looks a little bit more modern than what you get with this iphone like
i said this iphone design is tried and true from six years ago so
i mean it might feel more premium but i mean i think the pixel 4a might look
more premium just because of the updated design and things like that but
if we talk about build quality the iphone definitely has superior build
quality even if the pixel does look better now
we got to talk about performance so the iphone ain't playing no games
baby this iphone is coming with the a13
bionic chip on board it goes butterly smooth
just like an iphone would just like your iphone 11 11 pro and 11
pro max this a13 is powering this iphone se 2020
and it's definitely legit but the pixel 4a isn't a slouch
it's not running the latest snapdragon chip i think it's running the snapdragon
730 g but make no mistake it has great
performance it's still smooth it's slightly stuttery sometimes but not
nearly enough to make that a deal breaker but we're talking about which
phone performs better the iphone is smoother performs a little
bit better than the pixel 4a because the pixel 4
doesn't have the top of the line cpu in it
like the iphone does but again take nothing away from the pixel 4a
the performance is definitely legit but it's just not quite up to snuff
with what you're getting with this iphone SE 2020 battery life
this is not even a competition we're not going to be here too long the battery
life on this SE 2020 is trash get it out of here i mean it is not
meant to power that a13 bionic chip the a13 bionic chip was not made
for the body type and it shows up when you use the phone on day to day
performance battery life is atrocious you'll be lucky if you get through a day
with this iphone se 2020 whereas the pixel 4a
is a battery life champion which is kind of shocking considering
that the pixel 4 had atrocious battery life i mean good god
you want to throw it away but the pixel 4a they rebounded mightily with the
battery life in this PIxel 4a because this phone will last you a day
and beyond battery life is definitely legit with the pixel 4a we
like what's going on here with google they're in the building with the pixel 4a
battery life! cameras! now
the camera situation on both of these phones is top-notch
you got the lens from the iphone 8 but you got the image signal processing from
the iphone 11 because this phone includes the a13 bionic chip so that's
good but with the pixel 4a you got the camera
and everything going from the pixel 4 series even though they both only have
one camera lens on the back so you're not getting those multiple lenses
you're not getting no telephoto lens no zooming anything like that
but there are some differences in the cameras
with these phones. Ii would almost give a slight edge to the pixel because i think
the camera is more versatile with the pixel for example
the pixel 4a can do night sight uh this iphone cannot do night sight i
don't know why it's just not there but there's no night
sight mode on his iphone camera you get night sight on the pixel 4a not
to mention the fact that the pixel 4a can do portrait mode on humans and
objects the iphone se 2020 can only do portrait mode on humans
so there are some limitations with this camera as related to
this camera so i will give a slight edge to the pixel 4a but you know what
don't take my word for it just look at these images that i dropped throughout
the video that you could take a head-to-head look at what the pistol 4a
and the iphone se 2020 are bringing to the table
and after you look at the images that i'm presenting to you on the screen
right now we can go look at the video and you guys
can tell me downstairs which phone has the best video quality
now normally it's iphone but hey you can choose for yourself let me know
downstairs so monkeys in the truck roll the video clip what's up people
this your boy Vyyyper the man about tech and we out here testing the front facing
camera of this iphone se 2020 now important to
note this front facing camera maxes out at
1080p 30 frames per second so you do not get
any 4k footage from this front-facing camera on
the new iphone se 2020 but we all know that iphone does the best
video in the game today so that's probably not going to be a
problem for most of y'all considering the back camera does indeed
do 4k and there you have it what's up people this your boy Vyyyper, the
man about tech and now we are coming from the front
camera of the pixel 4a now this camera also does not do 4k from
the front camera so you are getting this footage outputted
at a cool 1080p it doesn't give you the fps on the pixel
i don't know why i can only assume it's about 30 frames
per second i'm not sure but again just like on the iphone SE 2020
you do not get 4k on the front camera of this pixel
4a but the video you know it's been questionable with pixel phones so
y'all let me know down in the comments downstairs how is this video quality on
the pixel 4a baby what's up people
this your boy Vyyyper, the man about tech and this is the back camera
of the iphone se 2020 now you are getting this footage
at a smooth 4k 30 frames per second it maxes out at 4k 60 frames per
second so the back camera is definitely doing big business here on this
iPhone SE 2020 i'm walking it seems pretty stable
that image stabilization doing good work here on this iphone
se 2020 booyah whoa yeah
what's up people this your boy Vyyyper, the man about tech and now we're coming to
you from the back camera of the pixel 4a now
this time we are outputting this footage at a cool 4k again i don't know the fps
i can only assume a 4k 30 but we are outputting at 4k resolution
here on the pixel 4a i mean you get 1080p on the front
camera 4k on the back camera for $350 that's a
pretty good deal if you ask me you got a awesome video shooter and the iphone is
400 so these cameras these mid-range cameras coming in with these high
resolutions giving you what you need in 2020 for all your camera needs this
is legit
so now that we got the video clips out of the way we gotta talk about
the intangibles now this is a cool section i like to include my videos to
talk about things that don't normally come up in spec sheets
when you're comparing two devices like i said we got the iphone SE 2020
we got the pixel 4a first intangible is the fingerprint sensor
now there's no face unlock on either of these devices they both have fingerprint
sensors on the iphone you get it on the front
here on a pixel you get on the back they both work very well i don't think
there's an advantage between either one either one will serve you well some
people will say that the pixel 4a fingerprint sensor is in a more
natural spot because it's right there where your hand
is resting your fingers resting right there so boom
you can access the fingerprint sensor right there it's easy peasy
um but i mean you've been used to this for six years now so
a fingerprint sensor on the front works found by me also when we talk about the
resolutions and the displays uh this is an oled display the pixel 4a
is a full 1080p OLED display this
iphone SE 2020 is not an oled display This is an LCD display
it's inferior and it's not even full HD i think it's like 750p
resolution so the pixel 4a has a higher resolution
it has better display technology because it's an OLED panel where this is an LCD
panel but this is brighter than this one so if
you're looking at these phones outside in direct sunlight
you're going to do a lot better with the iphone se although
and kind of hard to see this one in direct sunlight as well but if you're
doing a head-to-head comparison this is definitely the one that you want
in direct sunlight you do not want this phone in direct sunlight
because good luck with that let me know how that works out for you when you
can't see what you're looking at with the Pixel 4a
also when we talk about OS updates we know that the iphone sc will get at
least five years of OS updates from apple uh google i think is promised about two
to three years of updates for the pixel 4a
so the iphone SE 2020 will be supported for longer
than the pixel 4a so if you want to hold on to your phone for an extended period
of time you definitely want to be looking more
and more towards the iphone because it will be supported for longer
by apple then this google pixel 4a will be supported
by google but three years is still enough time for people to get a new
smartphone usually so i don't think that's a big deal but
again we have to mention it in part of the intangibles this will be supported
longer and of course we got to talk about the price this pixel 4a comes in
at 350 dollars i mean good lord for everything that
this phone is packing and bringing to the table
$350 is an absolute steal but not to be outdone the iphone starts at $399
only $50 more will get you into that Vaunted
apple ecosystem and nothing and i mean nothing is touching the apple
ecosystem so if you want to get in with that iMessage
and that icloud and all the apple services like apple
music apple tv plus everything that that offers you can get
into the apple ecosystem for $399 with the iphone se 2020 running the
latest a13 bionic chip that's a good look but $50
bucks cheaper and a superior camera system will get
you a pixel 4a also i didn't think about this before
but the iphone comes in i think three colors i think it comes in
red black and white the pixel 4a only comes in black so
if you want color options this ain't it chief look at the iphone
so when it comes down to it at the end of the day
if you're like Vyyyper which one should i get should i get
the iphone se 2020 or should i get the google pixel 4a
Vyyyper what should i do i got $400 burning a hole in my pocket Vyyyper what
should i do so i said at the beginning of the video
that only one of these phones is a 2020 smartphone of the year
contender and that phone in my opinion is the google pixel 4a
this phone is legit the other thing that i failed to mention
between these two phones is that this is a 5.8 inch display
so you get more screen real estate and more viewing
with this phone this is 4.7 inches and kind of small and kind of tiny
i can never use this iphone as my day to day because it's just too small
and the battery is too trash but if i had to use the pencil for
my day to day i could definitely use the Pixel for my day-to-day
because it is a bigger screen bezel-less better battery
better camera the pixel 4a brings a lot of value to the table
for $350 and this phone is a genuine 2020
smartphone of the year contender but VypNation
that is my head to head comparison between the
iPhone se 2020 and the google pixel 4a so let me know
which way are you leaning are you team apple rocking with the iphone se 2020 or
are you team pixel rocking with the google pixel 4a? these
are both great phones you can't really go wrong either phone
