This is first time I have listened to one of your reviews, you are hilarious! And I learned what I was trying to find out. Thanks.

This helped me identify differences which, even with research, I was not aware of. Cheers!

Great video! Thank you for your insight.

Thanks for doing a vs video on these different devices. Sometimes comparisons are just what a review really needs.

Love to see all 3 side-by-side - more importantly with the exact same background picture! It really helps with the size and display comparison. So many videos make the phones look different, it's more difficult to compare...

Could you do a outdoor test in the sun to se what phone has the best brightness for longest?

As always, an amazing in depth and concise video but also fun. I've been watching your reviews for several years now, so when beginning to look for a new phone a few weeks ago, you were the first channel I searched for. Today I upgraded from a Samsung to the Google Pixel 8 and I'm super happy with it. A phone is vital these days, it's like an extra limb, so important to know what your getting. You are so helpful, thank you so much for what you do honeslty, please keep up the wonderful reviews.

Despite being a loyal Apple user, I got the Pixel 4a (5g) a while back and used it for about half a year, and ai have to say, the camera even of that one was absolutely divine and can keep up with the iPhone 14, so people using a Pixel 8 will be in for a treat no doubt

Also on my 4a5g. It's been a little tank. It survived a fall from the top of metal basement stairs bouncing twice and landing screen down on a rubber mat. It finally cracked dropping two feet onto a ceramic tile floor. Needless to say, I do not want a phone with a glass back.

Pixel8 all the way - especially at the current pricepoint. That camera is ace!

How's about the network reception on pixel 8/8 pro?

I found both the pixel 8a and the redmi note 13 pro 5g for 250€ and since a game as much as I film/take I would like to know which is a better buy, is the 600mAh less a deal breaker?

anybody knews how do theat android 14 icon?

the makima and itsuki wallpapers killed me XD, instant sub

the price difference between the 8a and 8 is $350 in Australia.

PLEASE DO AN UPDATE FOR THE BATTERY LIFE AND SCREEN ON TIMES (FOR HOW LONG U CAN USE IT CONTINUOUSLY FOR MEDIA OR APPS) HERE IN YOUR OWN COMMENT

Y non of these creators don't talk about signal issues with a series that not having a good 5G modem? Y no body talk about huge quick heading issues & battery drain quickly with a series?

For the pixel 8a you get a 150€ trade in bonus so extra value on the trade in value. You could basically get the phone for 350 or less

I'm getting the 8A to upgrade from 4A. 4A is fine, but the battery is due for a replacement soon ($100). So, I thought about trading it in for ($140), Google store credit ($100, expires after a year) and ($50) statement credit if I pay with my Google credit card. Now the cons: I'm disappointed that it still has Gorilla Glass 3, thick bezels, much more expensive than previous models, and Google support is horrible. I had a horrible experience with the 6A ( constantly overheating and dropped calls ), I gave up on the phone after 6 months of trying everything. The pictures on the 6A were amazing... In general, I'm more tempted to get the OnePlus 12 or 12R over the 8A for a similar price. Even though it won't get 7 years of OS updates with the OnePlus, I think I would still get a more reliable phone and have a better customer service.

I will LOVE the pixel 8. Great work here...

Hello Uncle Chris, Thank you for this look at all three of the Pixels. I have had since it's release the Google Pixel 8 Pro. The only thing I don't like about the 8 Pro is the size, it's too big, that's what she said. So if I had to choose I probably gone for the Pixel 8, However the Pro came in this beautiful bay blue colour which I am still in love with. Also thank you for featuring the audio from the speakers of the phones. Nobody else who reviews phones seem to do this and I have no idea why, it's very important.

Is that Futaba from Persona 5 I see as the wallpaper? Based.

4-5 years ago, I'm still using OnePlus 8T+ in USA. I never used pixel phones. I also have OnePlus 7T pro Mclaren Edition which is still pixel 8 pro killer. I'm thinking to buy Google Pixel 5 by selling my OnePlus 8T+. Compare 8T vs 8A

Thanks.

Only problem with 8a is the price

The 8 is actually slightly smaller than the 8a while having the slightly bigger screen which is pretty nice. I'm still annoyed that Google artificially locks the “pro" controls to the most expensive model. At least let the 8 model users take 50mp photos🤕

Is it correct that slower charging generates less heat snd so better for battery longevity?

@pascal9728

14 күн бұрын

No, that is no longer the case. Among other things, the devices temporarily reduce the charging power in order to keep the temperature low. All of these precautions ensure that smartphones with particularly high charging power have, on average, even longer-lasting batteries than their slower competitors. For its iPhones, Apple says that the device should still offer around 80 percent battery capacity after 500 charging cycles. For the GT 3 with its 240 watts, however, manufacturer Realme even speaks of 1,600 cycles.

Sorry to call the 18W out for still taking place - - - can Google live up to the present?

DOES PIXEL 8 PRO HAVE GREEN COLOUR???

I picked up an 8a to try out back to back with my pixel 6. Testing the camera I found the 8a to have more realistic colors vs my 6 which looked like it added contrast/saturation. I could not see any major difference in low light. The 6 had more greenish/blue to the sky and trees which the same pic on the 8a was perfect. Shooting video at 4k60 with stabilization the 6 had micro studders when panning where the 8a was very smooth and close to what I expect from my gopro 10/12. The 8a was sharper in the video as well and you could tell a big difference just looking at vegitation on the ground. Connection speeds and reception seem equal. I prefer the smaller size of the 8a. So far my only negative is the charge time. I didn't think it would be a significant factor as I am not a gamer or on my phone all day but I usually reserve charging to my daily drive and typically by the time I get somewhere my 6 was close to topped off but the 8a is way behind. It won't affect my usage but I can see how it would affect others. Hope that info helps anyone looking to upgrade. The lower price plus the $100 google store credit made the 8a a great value for me.

I ll get the 8 pro when the 9 pro comes out from a 6a

I wish they'd still include the fingerprint reader on the back.
