Tech videos on KZread often tend to be overly serious, lacking the element of genuine enjoyment during tech reviews. Your videos are a breath of fresh air in this space! I'm really enjoying the lighthearted approach and fun you bring to your content. Keep up the fantastic work!

Notifications are better, you don't need to open the pay app to pay, just present the phone from the lockscreen, you can share any images from any apps just by sliding it on the share button. You don't need to make a screenshot of the screen and select the part you want to send. Gestures are better, Google assistant can read any web pages aloud and many More

I've used both 15 pro and Pixel 8. 15 pro is just as good if not better in some cases (airdrop, video quality, log shooting, app quality) but the pixel 8 is literally $1000 cheaper and does many things better than the 15 pro (screen call, Google assistant, photo editing ai, copy paste drawer, multi tasking) if money wasn't an issue. I'd get both 15 pro and Pixel 8 ​@@nickchkheidze9189

True, there are different factors that play in, but to me , the pixel is a better value compared to the 15. I tried out pixel 8 because the iphone 15 would have just been a newer version of iphone 13 just with dynamic island and a "updated design". iOS and Android are great, guess it just depends on your flavor of OS.

This was the most fun tech video I've seen. Continue doing what you do, you are meant to be big. The review was great with practical testing!

What a lovely family bro, God bless your love ones

Found your channel while contemplating a switch to iOS from my S22U and absolutely loved this take on the Pixel and android ecosystem. Might still switch because I've been on Android for 15 years (bored) but you now have a new sub! Keep doing what you guys are doing!

Reveiws like this are so rare, real life, relatable and honestly entertaining while giving us the info we need - thanks!

Finally a real review! Thanks man i kept the box sealed untill today but today i will switch from the 14 Pro max to the P8P!

This video is authentic. It was genuine, and you took the time to show us the features that you love with the phone. And it just seems so pure. I haven’t watched a review like this in a while. I’m glad I watched it. I hope you have a blessed day, and I will subscribe. Thank you for making excellent content.

What an awesome video I’m definitely sticking around to watch this channel grow. Great unbiased reviews much love from WA

Just discovered your channel yesterday. Love it!

I love the tech and family vibes! keep it coming!

I just saw your keyboard review/reaction for the lofree keyboard. And now watching this. Awesome video mate! Now I wanna get a pixel 8. 👌

Fun review! I think the one area the Pixel 8 could really improve is battery drain - standby drain through the night is in the realm of 1-1.3% per hour which I think is pretty poor (ideally I would expect something like 0.5% or less), combined with a pretty fast drop in regular use, especially on 5G. Not sure if the Big G can improve/ fix this via software update, or is it deeper in the G3 hardware?

@fishc0p89

4 ай бұрын

I think, they can still get this fixed via an update. It's more about an adjustment on how much battery the apps and system are training, rather than the chip. At least, I've been pretty alright with the battery. Don't know if they fixed that in an update over the last two months, but yeah.

Awesome content Samuel...retention is on point, love the jump cuts, they work!! Very very clickable thumbnail👌👌

You are right, tensor will get there like right up there with snapdragon and bionic performance but it will take at least 2 more pixels to get there and that’s the minimum till pixel 10 is my guess.

Sam you're great! Can't wait your next upload

I nvr liked iPhones coz of their limitations but I always asked myself why they felt so smooth and optimised.... everything 99 percent of the time worked as intended rather than all the androids I had ever used where things were simply not meant for each other and not optimised at all....until I touched my friends pixel 5... That phone felt like an iPhone running Android....then I was told pixels own the android OS... that's why the OS feels super optimised coz it's meant for pixels...that's how Google meant for the OS to be....am still collecting money to acquire a pixel atleast a 6 cos mane that's the phone I dreamt about for yrs not knowing it existed....

Using both Samsung and Pixel, just that animation thing is great, but I still prefer Samsung because of screen quality, speakers, S pen, zoom capability, build quality, photo album app, Sound Assistant, (alows you to use audio of multiple apps at the same time), One Hand Operation+ and so on. I also do have an iPhone, but I use it just because of Airdrop. Maybe you are just too obsessed with Apple and can only accept something similar to it which is Team Pixel.

I just got the 8 pro. Loving it. I came from an oppo A54g, but prior to that i had iphone 5s, 6s+ and X. The phone is incredible but i wish it had fast charging during the day, and slower battery drain. The oppo had phenominal battery. Im a pretty heavy user 6+ hours a day and had battery left over the next morning even. Other than that its amazing. It just feels so magnificent and fast. Hoping it lasts me a good few years :)

Great review as always, btw how do you feel about the size of this phone ? Since its narrower than an iPhone 15 but much taller, because of the 20:9 aspect ratio. I think Google should move to to 19.5:9 just like samsung did so they can make the phone even smaller at 6.1" without making it too narrow...

@thesamuelnam

7 ай бұрын

Surprisingly ok with this size where I wasn't with iPhone 15 pro. Could be the shape of it?

About the standby drain. Try the phone facedown for the night so the display is not active

FYI Screen calling works on Samsung too with Bixby... (I'm no samsung fanboi - but its worth knowing as I think most people have no idea)

Google pixel specializes in software, photography (videos included) and nice builds. They also do have nice haptics.

I just subscribed because of the humour... Love from Ghana 🇬🇭

Pixel is the phone that drags me out of the Apple ecosystem every few iterations.. they seem to be releasing more genuinely useful software/features than iPhone and I’ve always found assistant way more helpful than Siri. A few generations ago it was the ‘hold for me’ feature that blew my mind.

I think its so cool we can follow this guy before he gets big
