Both, the 3a and the 3a pro share most of the key components, though the pro offers additional enhancements in camera set (pro has better telephoto and front cameras).[3]

Additionally, the Pro variant includes a more premium aluminum frame, distinguishing it from the regular 3a, which uses a polycarbonate build.[8]
