    Honestly thicker bezels is a pro to me. I keep accidentally touching the screen with my current phone.

    Bought one yesterday and got it under a very good exchange deal on pixel 7, this is just a right phone for me in terms of size and comfort which matters a lot with modern functional looks and simple to use it as daily tool. Thank you

      going from the 7 to this is a downgrade
      smaller screen size slower charging, lower quality screen protection and no reverse wireless charging. They got u😄

      ​@@newfnshow031I wanted a smaller phone with rounded edges and with a good screen as well as full fledged AI loaded features. These attributes with sexy bay color is a awesome luxury for me !! By the way after using 8a for more than a week I'm happy to report that screen quality and zero heating makes it a very very good phone to own. Regarding pixel 7 it had many dents and al scratches at back as well as deteriorated battery coupled with heating issues plus 8a has 7 years of support and 7 rectangular shape was painful to use for prolonged usage. I got 70 percent of the value I paid for 7 plus a very good discount on the card and I paid 30 percent of 8a price , now you tell me is it a downgrade ?

      I just bought it and before that I tested the camera of the Pixel 6 (used phone that looks in very good condition). The quality of the selfie camera of Pixel 6 seemed very high & sharp detailes compared to the Pixel 8a. But I couldn't notice much difference between the rear camera of both phones, in the end I chose to buy a new Pixel 8a instead of a used Pixel 6. And I paid an additional $ 100. Because I didn't feel comfortable buying a used phone that they may have used for a long time and I don't know if it has a problem or not.
      But I don't know if I made the right choice of buying Pixel 8a especially in the matter of camera quality and battery. What do you think?
      Also I bought a genuin Samsung charger 25W Type-C - C. And I don't know if is it good for my phone or not for the long term?

    Good Job man.
    Great content.
    Been using the pixel 8 for 6 months now.
    Been using pixel phones since pixel 3xl.

      True, I've owned pixels since the 2. I was going to purchase a Samsung S24 base model , but ended up getting a pixel 7a. I love the way the phones work, they just feel so natural to me and homely. I also own an iPhone and that's a completely different story 🙄

    Keep in mind that used phones are an option too. I was considering the Picel 8a, but purchased a used Pixel 7a off Amazon for $200. If they made the batteries a little bigger, I think Pixels would be the perfect phone to buy used.

    Definitely one of the better looking phones Google has put out; that blue is the perfect shade. Definitely hope they bring that forward into other products.

    As far as I've always understood, gorilla glass 3 is less good than gorilla glass 5.
    Still not a deal breaker.
    I'm watching this on my new 8a.

    • @Mr8k.
      @Mr8k.  7 месяцев назад

      Yeah, they both really nice, glass 5 just a little better. 8a though is well packed device, I like it 👍🏻

    In Vietnam, pixel is hand-carried and currently has a pretty good price of $355. But the downside is that fast charging is only 18W, it should be at least 25W like Samsung, that would be better. It's really worth ditching 120Hz to get faster charging speeds. 18W is already old in 2023-2024.⌛

    u def can't use this without a case. It's $500 not budget
    it's hella expensive. Just an fyi this phone takes just as long to charge as my 6. I would buy this 8a if it was cheaper or had reverse wireless charging or faster charging. As it is though i would pay $350 cash max.
