Upgraded to an 8pro from a 4XL. It's been mostly good. Actually nothing bad to report. But yes the face unlock on the 4XL was better since it had the extra sensors.

This is good to know. I had the 6 & 7 Pro models and my 6P came out of the box with more than 15 issues. Of course in true Google fashion they essentially told me to fu*k off. Not literally, but that's how it feels when dealing with their customer service. I just got the 8 P a few days ago and have yet to even turn it on because I'm definitely not on "Team No Case" especially when I'm paying over $1000 for a phone. Truthfully my OCD wouldn't allow it.
@@viktorcapulet6708 the pixel 6 had a horrible overheating issue. I had to get rid of it. 7 was better but the 8 is definitely night and day comparison. It feels very snappy.

I bought a $50 pixel 5, traded in for $300 and went with the Pixel 8 with the earbuds from Google Store. Overall very satisfied with the phone, the camera, the screen, and battery performance all seems WAY better than previous pixels. Google finally figured out what to do to make the phone stable to the point where it feels like an iphone (fast, easy, yet customizable). The number one thing previous pixel owners should know is the battery life is so much better than other phones (atleast for me, since people always say Google Pixels are a lotterry) I get about 6-7hrs on Wifi/LTE and then to charge the phone it takes about 1hr to go from 0 to 90% and then the phone charges SUPER slowly to get to that final 100% because it's trying to extend the longevity of the battery since it's suppose to be a 7yr phone. I'm very satisfied with this phone for the price of $450 and free earbuds (they're not perfect, but they're definitely worth at least 100$ and I was already looking for some Noise cancelling headphones. I'd say if i had to name 1 negative with the phone, is that the camera feels grainy as hell sometimes compared to other phones, YET when you look at it on any other display or even directly uploaded to RUclips the grain is barely there. I don't understand why the preview looks nothing like the final result. Lastly, if the grain is still to much, simply disabling the Stabilization (which is SUPER smooth) will get rid of a good amount of grain, I guess the AI is doing MAGIC to get that stabilization, but it definitely affects quality from my experiments
"To answer the question on if you should upgrade, I think it really comes down to those seven years of updates, immediate access to the wealth of new AI features, and the pushes towards efficiency with Android 14 paired with the Tensor G3 chip." Wait, what? Seven years of software updates as a justification for upgrading your phone after one year?
currently daily driving the pixel 7 and so far nothing to really complain about, apart from the fingerprint scanner which some days is more a miss than a hit 😅
Great review mate, I saw the video on 9to5... and was impressed with the Review and wanted to mention it. Have a good one, enjoy the 8... probably get one when they go down on price or 2nd hand and move my 7 to second phone.
I was intending on keeping my Pixel 6 for as long as possible but I'm soooo tempted by the smaller size and rounded corners. The P6 is a behemoth in my tiny hands. I am thinking however of waiting until the P9 and crossing my fingers that they implement the new Qi2 standard.
I hear ya! P6 has been great (after updates) but man... Some good trade in deals on! P8 not really exciting at all, they should have upgraded the camera... But hard to pass up a deal?
@@jankuzminski7183 My current carrier has a $0 down and $10/mo for two years deal for the P8, basically reducing the cost of the phone to $220. They're basically begging for me to get it.
I have a Pixel 6 and don't feel a need to upgrade. Maybe in another two years. Hope they put in something more exciting than a temperature sensor as I will likely upgrade to a pro if they keep the 7 year service agreements.

Yeah I just got the pixel 8 and I wont upgrade until the pixel 11. This'll do me good for the next few years. At least 3 years. And then I'll upgrade for sure
I had an iPhone before I switched to Pixel 8. The iPhone will heat up substantially when using maps or Waze, whereas the Pixel has not done the same. Going from iOS back to pure Android has been a great experience and I am not looking to go back to iOS or Apple anytime soon. Face recognition is so good on this device and makes the switch more seamless. I don't mind that it doesn't work in low light as sometimes I had issues with Face ID in the dark as well. Having the fingerprint scanner as a back up is genius.
@@5150crazyfun Sorry for the delay in my response. I would have replied earlier but the past few days I've been driving around and with the phone connected for Android Auto I was not able to give a good answer.

Definitely upgrade to Pixel 8, even from Pixel 7. It's only missing a telephoto lens and the bottom bezel could've been shaved off a little bit. But the rest is 👍👍
I'm still using the pixel 3xl from 2018 and it still works like day1 for me personally Smart phone technology has not improved significantly after 2018-19
Looks like an incremental upgrade to me. I have a Pixel 7 which I really like, and I think I'll wait for the Pixel 9. If I had an earlier generation, I think it would be worth considering. I do like the slightly smaller size though.
I was open to upgrading to the Pixel 8 Pro and passing my 7 Pro to a family member, but we don't have the full features advertised yet on the 8 Pro available, so I am holding it for now.
Had a pixel 7, it was ok. I gave my phone to my brother, and i traded his pixel 5 in for a pixel 8 and its so much better than the 7. Better size/shape, finger print sensor, screen brightness/ FPS. Does everyday tasks quite well, and games/ videos look great
Upgrading from a 3, but only due to it forcing a factory reset once and I'm worried that that might have been due to hardware failing. Already think I'll be missing the fingerprint sensor on the back, but we'll see.
Was the battery life based on wifi or mobile data? Why does no one ever mention that? That makes a huge difference no matter what kind of usage you have.
Pixel 8 is super great and I'd love to upgrade to it (from pixel 7) cause of battery improvements and smaller size, but Tensor G3 makes me upset since it is so much worse than the actual lineup from Snapdragon or Apple's chips... My Pixel 7 is constantly warm and my battery is bad with max of 4 hours screen. Also on the street i cant see anything on the screen and thats shitty. However seems like Pixel 8 is better in terms of screen on time. Looking forward to the time when Pixel's hardware would be able to compete with another vendors. Pixel software is astonishingly good, so its hard to imagine what it will be capable of when paired with top-end specs (cameras, processors, ram etc).
I just wanted to say that the 3 points you just made are the reason why I'm on the 8, SUPER bright screen it's incredible, the battery life is actually wayyyy better than previous pixels and feels STEADY, and i'm getting about 6-7 hrs of SOT but it charges fast enough for me not to worry.
I liked my pixel 7a but the slow charging was a huge problem for me I'm a phone addict,, trying to use while charging is impossible it takes forever,, even when the phone is off it takes 2 hours to fully charge
While it is a decent phone, it still has all the same problems that google is notorious for. They still have a sub par processor and overheating issues owned it for like 4 days and went back to Oneplus 11. If Google is gonna charge 100$ more they need to do better
I have the 8 Pro. One big flaw to me (also applicable to the non pro). The magic editor function they are bragging about doesn't work if your 'photo backup function' is not on. So in the end, if you want to use it, you need again another subscription with some online service where you can't get rid of. Fyi, after some testing, when a photo isn't uploaded yet, the function doesn't work, if you don't have an Internet connection, the function doesn't work. Meaning it's not your phone who is doing the AI calculation, but the server @google Otherwise fantastic phone.
The 8 Series would be an actual upgrade from probably the pixel 5 and under which makes sense but the pixel 6 and above is still great even so I would still use the pixel 6 until software and security updates end
Thanks 👍🏼 il stick to my 7 for now but its kind of tempting since the electronic store in Norway has an offer to trade in an old phone and get 380 dollars of a pixel 8 plus the 200 dollars for the old one so its pretty cheap 😊 the only thing i don't like with my 7 is the colour shift at angles and a very almost invisible screen burn in while scrolling 😢 But don't know if that's worth 280 dollars?
It's disappointing that Google have chosen to keep the matte glass with the flagship premium model only. Many people simply wanna have the smaller device, but would prefer it not to be that glossy back which immediately collects every bit of oil on your fingers.
My 8 Pro got returned because the cellular signal strength and battery consumption was terrible. The 8 Pro offered 3 hours of screen on time on cellular which is terrible. The cameras aren’t noticeably better, especially the selfie cam that’s still a bit of a muddy mess.
I like my xiaome better than my google. Xiaome has better costumization. I can lock every app on my Xiaomi with a different code, more theme variety, etc.
If you have a zoom podtrak4 hook it up to the pixel 8band see of it works my 7 doesn't. Im considering upgrading or going ultra, or iphone just for the conveince
The dumpster fire that is Tensor and the horrible fingerprint scanner are just embarrassing. We're at gen 8 and still feels like a start up. I finally gave up and am loving life on team Samsung. My S21 is still going strong and runs smoother than my Wife's much newer Pixel 7. And has better software support 😂
I have the pixel 7 and find it to be a boring phone. The screen really isn’t bright enough for outdoor use and the speakers are terrible to the point its hard to understand music on youtube. The battery is ok but i have issues with the phone knowing its orientation sometimes it won’t go into landscape or gets stuck there and because i live in brazil most of the features don’t work like call screening and vpn etc.
In your video, the temperature shown in mobile between 61 degree Farhenheit to 71 degree which is 16-22 degree celsius. And here in South Asian Country average is 25-28 degree which will rise more than 40 degree Celsius. So, the phone will always Hot also degrade the performance, that's why big NO in our region.
I upgraded and sent it back. You will notice the difference, 8 is smaller, rubbish to type on, you won't notice the display. I honestly would not recommend the 8.
Pixel 8 is not compatible with 801.11 bgn 2.4g wifi, only with 801.11 ax 2.4g wifi...5g wifi there is no problems.... I am only getting 2mbps download speed with b/g/n enabled!!!! Sadly, my smarthome devices can't connect to ax only 2.4g wifi!!! So basically I am screwed....and public wifi is mostly 2.4g bgn!!!!
My pixel 8 lock screen animation doesn't fade on to the power button but yours does, is there any setting do I need to change. Why it's not using that animation in my phone.
I have the 6 but this seems like a downgrade to me. I like the bigger screen on the 6 and I don't care about the ai gimmicks. Paying $700 for a brighter but smaller screen doesn't seem tempting and battery life seems about the same.

The battery is ok but i have issues with the phone knowing its orientation sometimes it won’t go into landscape or gets stuck there and because i live in brazil most of the features don’t work like call screening and vpn etc.
Always use a case with any phone unless you have large pockets.
The only problem for me with iPhones, pixel and regular s23 is the super slow charging
In your video, the temperature shown in mobile between 61 degree Farhenheit to 71 degree which is 16-22 degree celsius. And here in South Asian Country average is 25-28 degree which will rise more than 40 degree Celsius. So, the phone will always Hot also degrade the performance, that's why big NO in our region.
While I have the 6a I would like to know if the 8 is worth it or if i should get the 9
Thts the thing cheaper phones like Motorola oppo ect don't over heat like the pixels do even doing heavy tasks hot spoting ect
Pixel with Tensor Exynos base is just premium midrange with flagship pricing. Change my mind.
i think i will get the pixel 8A
But does the P8 have good car insurance from GEICO?
Loving my pixel 7 pro, won't upgrade until the pixel 10 pro
I really expected a fingerprint scanner upgrade
I have the 8 and while it is optical it is very reliable and relatively fast. Still though, for the price we should have the ultrasonic.
On 7 gonna wait till 10
I upgraded and sent it back. You will notice the difference, 8 is smaller, rubbish to type on, you won't notice the display. I honestly would not recommend the 8.
Bro can you make compare video of tensor g1,g2,g3 heating test
Pixel 8 is not compatible with 801.11 bgn 2.4g wifi, only with 801.11 ax 2.4g wifi...5g wifi there is no problems....
I am only getting 2mbps download speed with b/g/n enabled!!!! Sadly, my smarthome devices can't connect to ax only 2.4g wifi!!! So basically I am screwed....and public wifi is mostly 2.4g bgn!!!!
Ai wallpapers are not an on phone ai feature you need an Internet connection
My pixel 8 lock screen animation doesn't fade on to the power button but yours does, is there any setting do I need to change. Why it's not using that animation in my phone.
You need always on display
@@cosmo550 Yes. They should have use that animation for the normal lock too.
Most importantly I would like to see Google remove the finger print scanner and improve face unlock just like iPhones. I hope everyone agrees?
Now the 8 pro is flat screen I might just upgrade to one from my Pixel 6.
Traded my Pixel 7 for the 8 and I'm enjoying the little bit smaller size and 120hz refresh rate. I cringe when I see the damage on that phone he has.
How do you do screen recording on the P8?
I've got the Pixel 8.... I still think the Pixel 5 is my favourite ever Pixel!
But don't have Promode camera, thats so sad
I have the 6 but this seems like a downgrade to me. I like the bigger screen on the 6 and I don't care about the ai gimmicks. Paying $700 for a brighter but smaller screen doesn't seem tempting and battery life seems about the same.
I would like to see android optimize their apps to work better on pixel than iPhone
#teampixel Give pixel 7 the love it deserve please.
BRING BACK 360 PHOTO SPHERE MODE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(
I would agree. Hate it when options get taking away
I like the 7. But the screen and overall size is kinda big. Don't wanna buy that
umm video quality??
90hz is more than fine ,, tbh if they had 25 watt or 30 on the pixel 7a id say screw the 8 get the 7a
I bought the pro version only because I cannot ignore the chin
As a delivery guy I can tell Google Maps optimization sucks ... I can't use it on my pixel 7 for work, Goodness waze exists.
They trying to appeal even more to the Japanese market, which is Googles biggest market. Japanese prefer smaller phones.
I upgraded from the Nokia 3310
