    When the Pixel 8 Pro first came out, I went to a Best Buy and played with it. It froze up while taking pictures so I was like nope. I bought the iPhone 15 Pro Max and tried to adjust to it for two months til I couldn’t take it anymore and sold it on Swappa, then I decided to give the 8 Pro another chance at Best Buy lol, and it was suddenly so much better so I bought one and I’m happier with it than I’ve been with any phone in the last few years and this is coming from someone who still owns a Pixel 7 Pro, Galaxy S21 Ultra, S23 Ultra and iPhone 14 I use for work.

    @@asianstud7 the only time the 8 Pro really felt hot to me is when it was downloading my 100 plus apps during the setup. It certainly hasn't felt any hotter than my iPhone 15 Pro Max was at times. I still love the Pixel 7 Pro but it could never keep up with the battery life of the S23 Ultra. Not a problem for the 8 Pro. Improved battery life, better performance when multitasking, better display, the tweaked hardware design and Bay Blue are awesome. With the 7 Pro I felt it might not stand the test of time but the 8 Pro feels like it will.

    I can testify to 1daful @Asianstud7, even still it only gets lukewarm in my experience with all of those apps downloading in the background. I'm not trying to be biased because I understand the price of a smartphone - why we watch these videos - it's about weighing the pros vs. the cons and ultimately what you, as the end user are willing to compromise on. I would say since the December update, especially having brought the GPU drivers up to date made a massive difference as I would assume those same drivers affect much more than just gaming. Pixel 8 and 8 Pro is a definite "Go" in my humble opinion, and that's coming from someone who's owned both the S23 Ultra and iPhone 15 Pro Max, the other 2 "Titans" in the space if you will lol. ESPECIALLY now that our world is becoming more and more ingrained with AI smarts, the Pixel dare I say seems ahead of the curve in that aspect, in fact it has been for a few years now. Good luck on your decisions to whomever may be reading this. I'm sure anyone clicking on this video is technologically savvy enough to choose what's best for their use case. Cheers 🥂

    I have the s22 Ultra and have yet to even worry about transferring the data I have stored. All because I feel like I'm not missing anything. The experience is so rock solid compared to Samsung that I find it hard to even touch my old baby. I have the 8pro by the way but I can see how you can choose the regular 8 over the Pro because the upgrades are really negligible. Especially the 5x telephoto when coming from the 10x that Samsung offers.

    Good video. I picked up the P8P in blue (beautiful phone). But after sitting with it for about 10 days, I returned it to go back to my S21. Just didn't like it that much and wasn't worth the cost. THEN Holiday deals came around and I could get the Pixel 8 for around 450$ with all my deals, plus potentially 300$ in trade in for my S21 to knock it down to around 150$ out of pocket. For a brand new Pixel 8? That's a steal, I had to buy it. So hopefully Google will OK my trade in but I've been content with the P8. I'm still eye balling the S24 lineup because I really enjoy One UI, so P8 is a good backup phone in the event I get a S24. We shall see, I'm perfectly content right now with the P8 given the value in my case.

    I have the pixel 8 pro on T-Mobile. The phone is nearly perfect. PERFECT. But I don't use it as my daily driver because for some reason the phone makes my hand feel uncomfortable. It gets warm doing little or nothing and holding the phone just makes my hand feel so weird. Don't know what it is.... Other than that there is nothing to complain about. My experience with call quality has great been great. Screen quality is the best on any phone. No more issues seeing the screen in direct sunlight. No banding when watching movies with dark scenes. The phone is nearly perfect in my opinion. Buy unfortunately the phone gets too warm for my liking and I don't even game on the thing. At least I have 7 years to see is things will change.

    Power and volume button in different place than in any other phone is what I love about Pixels, I don't understand why so many people mention it as it would be something wrong. When you grab the phone, the power button is under your thumb anyway. And I'm listening to music a lot so the fact that the button lowering the volume is so easy to find when its still in my pocket is really awesome.

It was the best Pixel experience I had and it carried over into the 8 series. Makes me feel a bit more confident in what I said about iPhone users getting a taste of the Pixel and preferring it. No matter what you say about Pixel, you can't take away the fact that when it comes to photos, the Pixel is true to life, and thats what people like. Also, I was laughing at the Sony picture and its consistency. Still don't know how that won 2 awards in some other smartphone awards, but could have been a software thing

    Amazing google managed to do symmetrical bezels on the pixel 5 but somehow still can't manage it on the 8 series. A small thing but do find it annoying. I am a pixel user and a fan but one thing I don't like about pixels is the amount of time the post processing on the cameras takes. I also found that the font camera processong of pixels has changed over the years for the worse, with a soft over contrasted look and eyes esepcially looking too black. And while i do love pixel cameras I have contempated importing a Vivo X100 pro as my next phone. I agree with you that as a personal preferece that pixel photos do look very appealing and accurate to me I have always loved their porcessing on the main lenses in particualar. But....I don't think we can really say they are the best any longer after you see the images coming out of a device like the Vivo x100 pro. With that monster 1 inch sensor and the Zeiss tuning options, it is certainly no longer a clear cut victory for the pixels. The x100 pro has really been the first camera phone thats images look genuinly amazing and stand out from any other phone cameras i have seen before.

    No it's better straight off the phone. They made really good background sound isolation. I use my p8p with galaxy buds. Not sure why this guy have bad call quality, maybe the person he was talking to had bad reception.

    My biggest concern is the cellular/wifi connectivity. With the Pixel 3 XL the wifi kept dying and would require a reboot or actually smacking the corner off it against the desk to get it working again. Weird bug right? With the pixel 5a my 5G keeps cutting out and I have to turn airplane mode off and on to get it working again. Are we still having problems with the Samsung wireless chips?

    I cant say all the experiences on my 8 pro have been so wonderful , at least on mine , the finger print sensor only seems to work when it it wants to 30% of the time , Face ID is not even in the same league as my iPhone 14 Pro Max which hits the mark 99.99999 % of the time even in pitch dark , the iphones Face ID also has a wider field of capture i have noticed , but to be fair i am in a less well lit environment much of the time , so that could have some bearing on the pixels Face ID performance or lack of it , i feel this is an area google could have like the galaxys have spent a few more bucks to get ultra sound FPS , as for photos , i have the iphone photo settings set to max resolution all the time , so it takes very decent pics , i wanted to really like the pixel , but i carry the iphone as my daily , the iphone gets more of the basics right imo , and the magsafe feature just is the gravy quality of life feature for me . Even photo processing , sometimes it’s a bit of a wait on the pixel . I tried taking some happy snaps of the stars without going to a lot of trouble , neither i found was particularly good imo ,its hard to beat a full frame camera and a big lens. The photo editing stuff on the pixel was the draw for me , i think it takes a bit of a win in that area. Phone of the year ? Sorry not so convinced , but thats just my experience.
