The Google Pixel 3a and 3a XL released back in May. We have everything you need to know about both smartphones right here! The Pixel 3a phones are powerful, have a great camera, and are already super affordable. In fact, they are the best-selling unlocked smartphone in the U.S. right now. Well, this should definitely help: Sprint finally has both the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL, and you can get either one for $100 off.

This deal requires signing up on the Sprint Flex Lease, which is an 18-month commitment. You will need approved credit, and all of these phones require a new line of service. After that time is up, you can return the phone and upgrade to a new model or buy the rest of the price of the phone. If you choose to buy out the phone instead of upgrading to whatever new iPhone is out at the time, you can either pay off the rest in one lump sum or choose a six-month payment plan.

The way the Flex Lease programs works is it applies a credit onto your bill and usually takes a couple months to get going. For example, the Pixel 3a phone would normally be $16.63 a month. On the Flex Lease, you'll get a $5.56 credit applied to your bill to bring the total down to $11.07 each month. The Pixel 3a XL will cost $14.40 a month with this same plan. The phones are available in Black, White, and Purple.

You can read more about the Pixel 3a XL and how it performs in our in-depth review. Spoilers: We like it. The 3a XL gets 4 out of 5 stars and our Recommended badge. The review said, "These phones have maintained most of what makes the Pixel 3 series among the most enjoyable phones to use, and in my week-long testing, I've noticed none of the performance hiccups that sullied some of that luster."
