I'm pretty sure the meta data will have information that will let cyber forensic specialists know whether or not an image or photo has been tampered with.
Photos and video is becoming just the framework for the final result. Digital art
Exactly that. We are almost at this peak point where technical features development slow down because it reaches is maximum. Now the smart phone must be smarter.
The video recording being stopped due to heat has been fixed in Android 14, In Depth Tech Reviews tested it on the Android 14 Beta on his Pixel 7 Pro in direct sunlight in high temperatures in the UAE and it recorded 4K 60 FPS for over 1.5 hours without breaking a sweat, in fact he had to manually stop the video because he couldn't be bothered continuing the test, the phone did not stop recording.
This should be even better with the Pixel 8 considering Tensor G3 should be a lot more efficient than Tensor G2, they also wouldn't have given it a 2400 nit peak brightness display if it wasn't efficient.
This is why the Pixel 8 supporting 7 years of OS upgrades is incredibly important, software updates can absolutely make a massive difference even when working with limited hardware. I can't wait for that TSMC fabbed fully custom Google designed Tensor G5 chip in the Pixel 10.
My pixel is on android 14 and still overheats outside with video 🫣 but I hope with pixel 8 it won’t be an issue. I think it’ll be good 👍🏼
@@MarksTech It might need a few days to settle, whenever there is a major update the OS is optimising in the background. If it doesn't fix it after a week you could try a factory reset although that's not ideal.
I've mostly heard that battery and thermals have been improved quite a bit on Android 14 on the Tensor G1 and G2.
Definitely agree that Google committing that this device will follow the AI curve is huge. I bought the iPhone 15 Pro, but this is now on return for the Pixel. I was almost sold on how impressive Apple's chip is, and the potential stored there, but I predict that power will be somewhat locked in, relying on third party apps that don't have the power of Google at their disposal and/or Apple retaining certain features for future iterations of the iPhone, even if technically this years chip could be great for a few years.
Wondering how far the video will be behind the iPhone (because that seems likely) without the AI part, that pro-use factor is the only unique differentiator at the moment.
I want the phone to be able to take beautiful videos natively on the device without needing to be sent to a data center to be cleaned up with AI. I would like to see Pixel phones able to natively record such quality video without having to have it boosted
I’m in the same boat. There’s no way to know if this video boost will produce decent results on a regular basis. I’m assuming a few years down the road it’ll happen on device. Even so I’d like to see better hardware for video. It’s the one thing Apple has over them when it comes to cameras.
Personally i love what is being done with AI, the amount of editing you can do to get the picture you want is fantastic, got the 8 Pro on order!
Whatever happened to taking a normal candid photo , a holiday snap , a birthday, special occasion etc
@@marksouthwell4490 its a great point Mark, but just because AI is available to you doesnt mean you have to use it, the 8 and 8 Pro have fantastic camera sensors that you can point and shoot and be happy with the result but if you did want to change any aspect of your photo then its nice to have that option
@@marksouthwell4490you still can and many people will do just that. I'm not going to use that feature but I'm definitely gonna try the editor and move things around. I do things like this on editing software so I think it's cool for our phones to give us that option too.
@@marksouthwell4490well you can do that too, but also having the options to edit the photos etc the way you want is awesome as well. I am on the fence between getting the pixel 8 pro or the Galaxy s24 ultra myself
@@marksouthwell4490 you know you don't have to use the feature right?
Ordered 8 pro as soon as it was available. Can't wait for it to arrive next week. AI is wild
1:32 Dude it means they had you when they were -10 years old, nothing weird about that at all!!
😂😂😂😂
Mark you've been doing an amazing job at all of these videos for the last 2 to 3 years I've been watching you🎉
I guess I’m the rare person that doesn’t care as much about camera gimmicks and silly features. I would much rather Google focus that insane amount of energy on getting the core basics right. Things like improving battery life, getting rid of bugs and glitches, reducing overheating, improving connectivity and call quality. I will never understand why so many people fall for the smoke screen of gimmicks over core functionality. I will say I like what I see so far, but I’m cautiously optimistic based on the last two Tensor variant Pixels with the 6 and 7 series. Hopefully this is the generation where Google starts to fix their quality control issues.
On your point regarding whether Google's video boost is actually a video or not, if you're talking just in terms of which phone wins out with video quality, then for sure it is video. Because it's not really edited video. Instead, it's fully processed video. Or another way to think about it is that it's computational videography that just can't be handled on the phone hardware alone. Thus, the reason it's sent to the cloud. It could be processed on the phone but it might take weeks to process one video and you'd have to keep your phone plugged in the whole time. And regarding whether things will hold up in court, your example of digital zoom being picked apart as fallible, that threshold was passed long ago by every smartphone. I'm pretty sure video boost will put Google way ahead in the video quality department. It'll be interesting to see how other OEMs respond since most don't have the ability to respond in kind.
Great video!!! Can't wait for the 8 Pro.
You’re insane, bro
Thanks boo 👻
All that AI jazz is cool but tell me if the modem is good can hold a connection, good battery life and the phone doesn't heat. I mean it's a phone after all.
It's not even out yet, and the testers can't release anymore info until the embargo lifts on the 12th.
Finally, now I can take a photo of my self and insert Trent Reznor next to me and say I met the guy 😂😆! Thank you AI
Yes, it's a great move and initiative by google to implement killer Ai features for their phones, as you said Iam also annoyed with the photo Ai features, photos and videos will loose their credibility or their originality, we won't even know if a photo is true or not. In the end we won't even we able to tell the difference between a real and Ai enhanced photo. So I feel photos orignality relevance is loosing there. Overall bard integration is solid
I think Google's vision includes processing video boost on the chip. For now the bottleneck is technology so they have to rely on cloud computing.
I believe in a few years they will get there!! I had the same thought as you when watching the keynote
5:26 yeah that's already happening with deepfakes. Not with what Google's Video Boost is going to do. Google's Video Boost is just like colour grading, noise reduction, and improving dynamic range.
Now my picel 7 pro its still going to be even better
The pro is insane but what about the regular 8??? Why don't have the same ultra wide and the same functions with that same SoC???
Whoa, your video format looks different. You filming in 4K60??
Yes:) 4k60 using the front facing camera of the iPhone 14 Pro Max
@@MarksTechNot bad
No PAL video settings is a real problem for me. I occasionally get video flicker and can't do anything about it because Im shooting at 30fps and need to be at 25fps. Even a anti flicker setting would help
2:58 i dont think it automatically takes multiple pics before and after i think you have to take a bunch of pics then it recognized all of those picks are very similar and alows you to change the faces
That's a scary thing about AI and videos being used in court. I know someone who was wrongly accused of wrongdoing at their job and the video footage of the alleged incident wasn't of any use because there were blind spots in the footage. Very scary stuff.
Interesting I'd like to know which features are on both phones in which features are only on the 8 pro I listen to a couple of these reviews and none of you guys seem to differentiate and kind of go back and forth not picking on you particularly but
Thanks your reviews are best ❤
If the video hasn't been tampered with then yes you can still use it
Now I'm torn. I ordered the iPhone 15 Pro Max even though I've always been an Android fan. I just had so many problems with my pixel phones dying lately that I decided to go with another phone. I'm wondering what's better in terms of longevity and build quality.
I will definitely make a video covering all of that, as well as battery, life and heat management
@@MarksTech that's perfect, thank you!
Dude what are you doing? Lol your an android fan ? If you leave pixels phones 📱 for now you go over to samsung and wait it out! Lol haha 😂
@@nccapone344 I had a Samsung device for work and absolutely hated it, it's nothing like the stock Android experience. I figured with iOS becoming more and more like Android that I might as well switch to a phone that will hopefully last me a while. To each his own.
I have a 14 pro now, but ordered a pixel 8 pro. Google assistant and with this pixel updates on the 8? Like wow! I am impressed and I know that I will utilize those features. At this moment as a 14 pro user, siri is dumb af
Would you switch from iPhone to Pixel 8 pro as daily driver?
Updates until 2030 😍
That’s crazy!
A picture from the Pixel 8 Pro: The best combination of what the eye saw during a span of a few minutes. And maybe more.
0:59 Assistant with Bard is amazing, but it can be better, smarter, more interesting. So I'm just hoping Google is taking time to bring to us the ultimate Assistant 🤞
genius content as usual. and just so you know, i cant never get enough of your lowkey sense of humor :D
Any improvements on snapchat video? I know photos have been great recently but what about video , is it still bad
Hi Mark… can i ask if any of these features are coming to the 7 series?😮
Had the same question, but no one seems to be knowing about this at this point 😪
8Pro ordered. I am excited! Can you imagine going from an Oppo Reno Z to this Google Pixel 8 Pro platform?!?!😅
I love the future of AI and where Google is going with all the functions especially the camera. This is moving forward from a smartphone into something else. In all the phone wars going on with Samsung vs Apple vs Google. For sure another release will make some small improvement to the next to the next.
But for now...
Oh i will love this! 🎉
I don't like the idea that photos are becoming fantasy or fake moments, and not authentic
AI tech will definitely change the course of legal cases in the future. One photo says someone was here at this time and date, while the opposing councils photo says they were somewhere else at the same time and date.
4:41 i mean surely you could say that normal processing on device after the video is taken is also not a video the difference is how much it has changed and its of the device i mean were is the line
That's insane AI and fake pictures.
I wander if will getting hoter than 7 series ? :))
AI is terrifying...it is absolutely horrifying
its pretty wild to say the least lol
Men up
It’s not. Man is FAR more horrific
AI just pulls from shit that already exists.
These features are not pictures. A picture is a stoppage in time in that exact moment. Can't change it
Well.....the definition of a picture changed a long time ago when background could be swapped and people inserted in places where they weren't. Now a picture is whatever you want it to be I guess
The definition of a picture has indeed, changed. Welcome to 2023
@@Johnnyiswhere I won't use those features so my pictures do not change and will be a regular og photo
The india price is crazy. I have been waiting for 8 pro, but its almost $300 more here.. no free pixel watch either…
Wait until they use it to put you somewhere where you weren't, i know i know... They'd never do that,.....
I like your video 👍
5:20 No
Rather interesting stuff!
this is where Apple have a lot of ground to catch up....i love my pixel... Imessages lmao kids stuff...i can repleay to messages without typing one word ... you kidding... no way ill go back.
The crazy part about all of this is the fact that Google is really coming for Apple's ass😢 and they're getting ready to surpass them in every single way😅
Compare pixel 8 pro and iPhone 15 pro max 😊
Well iPhone doesn’t just take videos it’s being processed on the phone the difference is the pixil video gets processed on the cloud
It's only processed on the cloud when you use video boost. The videos are processed on the phone just like any other phone
@@peterofori1765 yup I know I was just saying it’s being processed and not modified to be completely a different picture or video than what you took with the phone
Always looking for new videos meanwhile i cant afford😂
But does Bard make the Pixel 8 Pro run cool
Pixel 6a trade in $300, not bad.
That Tensor is terrifyingly gonna be hot
I hope not :(
More like a bunch of gimmicks to distract from raising the price and probably not fixing the main problems of P7P such as poor fingerprint, poor battery and reception problems
Tech geeks will end up making us all literal prisoners. Especially the ones that seem to be in love with Authoritarianism.
I agree. Apple, and Tesla are boring "life style" brands.
I hear you on the photo/video editing and being unreliable as evidence. I believe you could check the metadata and see that it has been modified, by AI or otherwise, from the original.
That being said, I can't be upset about the creative possibilities of these AI enhancements. The best take feature seems like a dream for parents who just want decent photos of us with our squirmy kids. Is it dishonest? Maybe, maybe not. The software is still pulling faces from real photos that were taken at the same time, so it's not like it's a complete artificial construct; it just did a little timing magic.
The magic editor for photos is more like digital art on your phone. I don't think it's supposed to be used as a representation of real life. This kind of unrealistic editing has already been happening with filters on social media. If you (the viewer) think everything that's in Instagram is real, then you're kidding yourself. We need to be more savvy about reality, and realistic expectations versus unrealistic/impossible goals.
Regarding the video boost/HDR capabilities, I think the idea is to be able to approach what the human eye can see/experience. Our eyes are incredible at adjusting to light while maintaining color balance. I think that being able to take a video and have it look like the real life experience when you show it to someone else can be really powerful. That's my two cents anyway.
R.I.P. Apple & Samsung (overrated & over pricing) abusive companies.
I think this presentation is much better than that Apple bullshit, which phone do u think is better between 8 pro and s23 ultra?
I'm excited by this AI stuff, too. Can't wait to get my preordered Pixel 8 Pro... 😎
I got the 7 Pro anfew months ago and moght just jump on the trade in deal. Google will give me $420 for it and i get a Pixel Watch for free.
not a bad deal at all tbh
Best Buy I think is offering $550 for the pixel 7 pro plus the watch 2 for free might be a better deal just fyi
@@mexicantaco5757 Really? I wonder if they will offer it for a 128g model
The video produced by pixel looks artificial. Colours boosted, contrast boosted, shadows and exposure boosted. Nothing to be impressed at all.
Plus every photo looks now HDR. I don’t like it at all. AI photo is the worst trend in smartphones and photography overall.
It’s a shame because I used Pixel 2 and 4XL, however since Pixel 5 Google lost the concept and I move to Iphone because pro models still can be produced in human size and overall quality is higher.
'Because A.I. is advancing so incredibly fast even right now' - Skynet, thus i need no 7 years of software updates. I gona get nuked in 2 or 3 year from now ;D
I’ll be back 😎
😂😂😂😂.....very funny bro
The thing about video boost is that while impressive on paper it's basically taking "cheating" to the next level. I balked at the idea of computational photography at first being a hobbyist photographer and eventually came around. This is next level though. My question is what kind of raw video quality are we getting that we need this? I have the same questions about night sight video as well. But overall really enjoyed the presentation and looking to see if Google finally solved the two biggest issues I had with the 6 Pro: battery life and overheating. Please test the Pixel 8 Pro with a Zoom call. Zoom would for some reason absolutely fry my Pixel 6 Pro within minutes. I used to be so heated literally 😂😂
Video boost could be a time saver especially if it does a great job yes you could color grade the videos yourself and use valuable time but if your pressed for time and this feature does do a great job it would be a good tool to have.
While true my issue is what kind of video quality are we actually getting out of camera? Google has always been just a step behind Google and Apple in terms of video so i didn't think this kind of wizardry was actually necessary. I'll have to wait for actual results and hopefully Best Buy has live displays by this weekend.
@@techierg1862
Really what is a photo, this is so fake think about it you take a photo and it replaces your face from a photo from 5 years ago when you looked better ? so where is the limit ? Taking a photo of a car but the Al will replace the photo from when you first got the car when it was brand new. Is this whats going on now ?
No no :) it replaces your face with a burst shot from that same scene.
Such a garish design even a phone case cant cover up 😬
Well......sometimes I feel pixel devices weren't made to use a cover.....they are gorgeous as they are .....but for protection......you have to use a cover and that's a shame.....
Video boost SHOULDN'T be limited to the Pro version. It should be a paid subscription feature.
Ahh so iPhone users can have? Too bad so sad. I'm stoked to go to Asia for 5 weeks this winter and I'll be able to use it! Picked up the Pixel 8 Pro from BestBuy for $575 out the door including tax and it came with a freaking watch too! If I bought a 15 Pro Max and a Apple watch even with my 3rd gen SE trade in I would be up in the $1,500 range. Screw that
Honestly if the picture and video quality still looks bad on social media then people still won't care enough to buy this thing... They need to set their priorities straight
Google have always been about AI....making a smartphone that is smarter comes first. Gradually they will incorporate these things also. Their social media photos and videos used to be boring g but now they aren't....but at the same time not perfect either.....so they will get there
The s23 ultra is way better than Iphone and Pixel and with features like the programmable side key and gaming ,samsung has been able to do those things for years as well as USB C. I have the s23 ultra and it's the best phone ive ever used. Also the s23 ultra has quickshare , dynamic island, multi tasking , s pen capabilities and emulators w with more games, and 10 x zoom with full clarity etc. However, I just used the 15 pro max today and the camera is impressive and it's very light but still my s23 ultra is more fun to use and also more capabilities and just wait until the z fold 6 ultra is released next year. I was playing Mario Oddysey on my S23 ultra which the Iphone 15 pro max cannot do. I can play any game for any system.
Also with the iphone It can't really multi task, in screen fingerprint scanner, superior thermal management, use copy and paste clipboard, run emulators for old school games and new games , use s pen stylus functionality with gestures , download anything from anywhere at anytime, use smart view projection nor anything like DEX projection , wireless powershare which comes in handy when you forget charger , similar charging speeds. Also on ios 17 reaching the control center is harder then my old iPhone 6s and you can't really customize the navigation method to shapes like samsung which isn't necessarily for me . For me I'm a samsung guy but I'll say this iphone 15 pro I give the camera clarity props after testing it but Samsung once I experienced those features I can't live without them
Nothing special. Just software. Nothing to do with tensor
AI, because Google is bad at physics and basic photography.
