Price and launch

We don't have to wait too long for the launch of these two phones. Since from today they are available in the Google store, at this link. The price of the Pixel 3a is 399 euros, while in the Pixel 3a XL we find a price of 479 euros.

They are prices that can be a problem for the brand. Since the current mid-range on Android has much lower prices. In addition, it is a segment in which it competes strongly, which could hinder the possibilities of the company in this regard. What do you think about these phones?
