    The dimensions and shapeliness of the Pixel 8 is basically perfect for/to me. I also like the Hazel colorway. If the mint colorway had been available at launch, I probably would've gone for that, though I also like the matte frame/bar of the P8.
    I don't pixel peep displays much, but there have been times I've been in the sun and found myself thinking "damn, this display looks good".
    I'm parked at a PC most of the day so battery life doesn't impact me much. I also don't record a lot of video, but having top tier still photos brings a ton of peace of mind. I use the Google service based AI stuff daily, but I don't actually know if that's Pixel specific, or an Android-wide thing.

    Have it since release and I still love it. At the beginning I didn't really like the color of the rose Pixel 8 I bought, but now I fell in love with it. I just don't like that we Pixel 8 owners won't get the features the P8P owners get even though it's the same chip.

    im still very stuck between which model to get, I truly want to switch to android but the reason why I stay with apple is because they offer the 15 pro, a pro model at a smaller size, the S23 ultra and pixel 8 pro are phenomenal phones, but they're just too massive, ive gone down from the 12 pro max to the 15 pro and I truly appreciate the smaller size, and its such a shame Samsung and google won't offer the best model in a smaller form factor, and very bad move for google to hinder the pixel 8's potential through software.

    • @young_n._older

    Thank you! I just saw the price on the 8 drop $150. Between this and a couple of other reviews, seeing that price drop, it was time. Also, I found a stupid cheap liquid silicone case, that feels JUST like the one that Google sold for the first Pixel. It's great. I was on the pixel 5, I refused to buy a GIANT phone. Worth it. Also, I do graphic design. A lot of other phones have bumped color pop, which CAN be pleasing, but it drives me nuts how oversaturated some phones look. Pixel is actually pretty neutral, and IMO, I like to see "reality" of color more.

    GSM Arena has rated the battery life of the Pixel 8 just under 90 hours. Even the Pixel 6a is better. Will these battery saving tricks vastly improve the device's battery life? Will it easily help me get just over a day use and between 5-6 hours of screen on time minus playing games or non stop streaming or navigation?

    I just returned mine for an S23. Keep in mind I’m switching from an IPhone 13 and have wanted a pixel for a while.
    Things I liked: software was clean and smooth, screen was bright, build was solid, photos are great
    Thjngs I didn’t: Gaming (don’t do it all the time, but it wasn’t smooth), screen was washed out, Ai is a gimmick still and takes a while to render results. I really didn’t like the extra weight and especially the camera bar, which I always smudged with my fingers.
    It’s a good phone but not for me.

      Well it entirely depends on what you need,
      If you want to play some games, have a good fast chip great cameras that are social media ready with the added saturation then go for s23
      However, if you just wanna scroll through social media, have great cameras that give great true to life photos and really good software and get long software support then go for pixel 8
      After all they are both androids so you won't have to worry about customization

Having a iOS 16 or later for around 150 bucks is something not wealthy people appreciate.

Even dating back to the Nexus line. They've kept their promise of updates for all of their phones and even in the case of the original Pixel they gave it an additional OS upgrade.

    • @androguyy
      @androguyy Před 8 měsíci +8

      Genuinely speaking Pixel 8 is much better overall than the S23, the only 2 things S23 wins at are gaming and faster raw power, yeah nothing really beats the mighty SD8G2 but that's about it, Pixel performs better day to day even with S23's One UI 6 (with the latest One UI Home update) which addresses animation bugs, Pixel still runs so much smoother than S23 which had more than 5 - 6 major firmware updates thus far. Not to mention this is a Pixel 8 all without a single major firmware update which the QPR December feature drop release is due to arrive within a week or so, I'm on QPR 2 and it performs even better than 1. Besides that, Pixel 8 has slight edge with battery life than the S23 (Yes, I use and collect phones) It has objectively better camera, much better display, much better QOL features and better timely updates only to get better.
