I got a used Pixel 3a on eBay 2 years ago. I’ve left it in the humid restroom and even accidentally dipped it in water to where the speakers got wet and blared. It dried off and the loudspeaker sounds normal again and everything still works.
Since then, I’ve also bought a used pixel 4 that developed a flickering screen and a used pixel 6 that overheated, Sim reader malfunctioned, won’t turn on anymore, and was declared unfixable at quikFix.
To be fair I also have a new pixel that I love the heck out of. But my go-to for using at home with wired headphones is the soldier, Pixel 3a.
Yeah, I really don’t get the front print reader push that happened. The readers worked great unobstructed on the back. The front ones are nothing but slower, less accurate, a bigger paint to get your finger right on top, and a bigger pain if you protect your phone screen with a protector.
