I'll never complain about an extra sensor especially if (by what I know) nothing is being sacrificed for it. I think all phones should still have: the headphone jack, the IR blaster and the camera shutter (button).

[@Lionspel]

Also sd card slot for flagahip ones

[@mikldude9376]

Fully agree mate , I miss the headphone jack and the SD card.

I'm sorry but there is no way you just compared picture quality on the Snapchat app 😂. Those devs have catered towards Apple for years. Everything else is fair game. But snap is a joke

And insta, tiktok etc.

[@Haruxcore]

Gemini is currently undercooked and I hated the fact that my Pixel was pushing for me to change to it. Turned it off as I had the same bad experience. It doesn't do more than half of the things I use the assistant for. Especially making calls. It would ask me to unlock the phone all the time when the Assistant just does it... And playing music is also a nightmare.

[@6MonthsLater]

Maybe this is just Google's way of telling us we don't actually want a true AI assistant yet 😂. Thx for the comment, glad I wasn't the only one who thought this - Josh

[@PFKNR]

I enjoy using the pixel 8 pro more than the s24u. Typing experience is on another level and the pixel ui is so smooth and fast compared to one ui. Only thing I miss from the s24u is the customization from good lock.

[@SahilJobanputra]

What about battery? Can you share battery experience?

[@Snow1e]

I have both, and to be fair, S24U is so damn smooth as well. Battery is on another level. With that said, PixelUI just feels a lot more coherent than OneUI. I haven't touched my S24U for a long while.

[@PFKNR]

@@SahilJobanputra they both have great battery life. BUT SG24U has like 2 extra hours of battery left.

[@mikeg3644]

I’m probably going to trade in my iPhone and go back to the pixel 8 pro mostly because I miss the Exclusive features and I enjoy the design of the phone way more than any Samsung phone ever.

[@RedKryptonitelEl_]

Good lock available on playstore now. Not just Galaxy store. Let me know if it works. I've wanted to switch to pixel.

[@hman1801]

The typing experience is something not many reviews seem to discuss. I've had Moto, Samsung, iPhone and none of them compare to the ease of typing on the Pixel. The iPhone keyboard I found to be particularly abysmal.

[@conorm2524]

My last 3 Samsungs have gotten progressively worse in this area. My latest one is an S21. The predictive text is infuriating at times. I think I'll be getting the Pixel8 this weekend.

[@mikldude9376]

Well we all have different experiences mate , I have a galaxy, an 8 pro and a 14 pro max, and I put the pixel last for typing on , and dictation on the iPhone while typing is in another league compared to the android phones, on the galaxy I like the optional Samsung high contrast keyboard which is ahead of the pixel imo , but still a tad behind the iPhone.

[@renaldofriloux495]

I am a pixel 6 Pro shooter and I have a friend who has the Samsung 24. The Pixel's default camera image quality is so far superior (natural) I would never consider the Samsung. If you want to play around with Pro settings then it might not matter as much.

[@mjjones1045]

I have the s24 ultra and you are correct. It's the worst camera I've seen in a phone in a long time. I'm not sure how no reviewers are talking about this. My s22 ultra kills the s24 ultra camera by a mile.

[@skrttt_dffoo]

I want to love Pixels and I really do like both my 6a and 7a but its difficult to justify the shortcomings of the Tensor chip. Doesn't help that first party support and some AI features are lacking in other regions (SEA for me). Google needs to step up where other brands are slowly but surely catching up. They need to treat its Pixel users less like beta testers and more like regular consumers...

[@WestCoastChicano]

I currently own a Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. It will be 4 years this August since I purchased it. To this day it still has no lag and it does everything I want it to do. However, I've been having trouble with the video camera focus. Anyway, I thought it was time to get a new phone. I wanted the 24 Ultra, but with no trade in T-Mobile wanted close to $600 down for my target of $20 a month payment. The 8 Pro was my second choice. T-Mobile wanted $400 down. I was like "No way" so, with no money down I purchased an unlocked phone from Google. It should arrive on Thursday. My payments are $24 a month. Gr8 review. 📱 🇺🇸

[@Armando.Krijnen]

Ahh nice, loved my Note 20 Ultra ❤! Currently own the S23 Ultra and despite I love the S23 Ultra, my next phone will be the Google Pixel 8 Pro or Google Pixel 9 Pro (XL). 😊 I hope the Google Pixel 8 Pro would serve you well! What is your general opinion about the Note 20 Ultra?

[@WestCoastChicano]

@@Armando.Krijnen It's the best phone I ever had. So much so that I didn't want to trade it in. I'm keeping the phone and I'll still be using it every day in my house. By the way, T-MOBILE offered me $200 for it.

I have both pixel 8 pro and S24 Ultra, and although i always prefered my pixels this time around theres no way selling my s24 ultra. I like literally everything about it, but most, stability, i can update without a fear that it will crash, hang, add bugs and so on. The battery lide is way better on s24 ultra, video quality is way better also, portrait mode has 4 different focal lengths, night photography/videography are better also and the selfie camera. Anyways its literally better in 80% of ways.

[@kEirenic]

1 thing i dislike about s24u is the form factor. Too boxy, sharp edges, and not as comfortable in hand vs Pixel8 pro.

[@ohmylawwwd2538]

I'm on the Pixel 7 and I was hoping that Gemini and Google Assistant would work together and hand off the tasks to each other. Just like how you demonstrated, Gemini is smart enough to understand you are asking it to perform a function but does not have the capability to do so. So just like you, I just want to play music, start a timer, or open up Lens but could not do with Gemini. Maybe we should just have Assistant as the interface for Gemini, or have Gemini work in the background for Assistant. Also, HDR is written as "HRD" at 0:31.

I recommend also, for people that like the Pixel clean UI, to try the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra or 50 Pro. Basically the some UI, with great hardware, materials and killer gestures (the best ones). They're collaborating with Pantone for the screen and skin tones in the camera, and could even access some (all?) Google Photos software options.

Temperature sensor? I am 42 yo and I know when I have a fever or not. Do I need to know if the fever is 100.5 or 100 6?? No I have a Pixel 7 pro and love it. For regular photos, the cheaper phone the better. I don't need to spend $1k+.

Yup it's not the average use case in this day and age. Probably don't need a flagship if you are using it that little.

Mine can "reliably get at least 3-5hours and up to 8 apparently. It just has random days where battery drains super fast where I'm at 50% by lunch. So weird.

[@Magddy45]

I used to be a hardcore nexus user then got the first few Google pixels and switched to oneplus and now back with the 8 pro but this whole Google giving away features that they made seem like only possible on the tensor chip was a slap to the face after paying over $1200 for the 256gb version. Also the software hasn't been as great as i remember it being in previous pixel phones I have some very annoying bugs like the pill navigation bar moving to the side of the screen instead of sticking to the bottom and sometimes my app drawer staying on the screen and freezing my phone for a few seconds. I wish googles tensor chip was stronger like the snapdragons the gaming experience hasn't been the best even the previous oneplus phone I had was better in gaming performance. I kind of regret this purchase not going to lie.

[@giveupforu]

This is actually a bad take and the reason is exactly what you stated - you don't have kids. I think pixo 8 pro is probably one of the best phones for families or parents. I'm not a Google pixel fan boy by any means (I hate the pixel quality control. When I first got my pixel 8 pro the screen was broken out of the box). I think the value of the pixel 8 pro is its user friendliness, photo taking and the most underrated function which is the temperature sensor. I have two kids, so I use it very often and it is very accurate. I don't play games so I don't need the latest chip that Snapdragon offers.

[@siriusblack5187]

How's the shutter speed of the camera. It is very important for clicking pics of kids who won't simply stay still 😅

[@mikldude9376]

I find the pixel camera good , but not always good, and against my 14 pro max , they trade punches , they both have strength's and weaknesses. I will say the only reason i bought the 8 pro was for the picture editing features, we had a death in the family and a pile of old photos to try and make acceptable for the funeral service , and it did a fair job for that purpose , but it does have limitations, you just cannot magically make a bad photo good no matter how good the editing software is. It's a decent phone i think , but my iPhone 14 pro max is still the device i carry . I have my iPhone on charge and I'm near my macbook in the lounge or ipad and get a phone call , the call comes through on both , and I can seamlessly take the call on either . I know people babble on about the apple ecosystem, but it really does have some advantages. The iPhone has magsafe which I use every single day. Is it perfect? No none are , but it is pretty good imo and I'm a long time android boy since the galaxy note 2 . So I'm not biased , for me the pixel makes a good second phone. The temperature thing i was highly sceptical about is use , but as time passef on several occasions, i have found some interesting uses for it. Just one off the top of my head , in hot weather here in australia one day i wondered what the difference in temperature would be between one of our cars painted black in direct sunlight and a white car , they where both still bloody hot, but the white car iirc was about 8 to 10 degrees cooler , how hot is my coffee , lol you know these not really important questions 😊, still handy to have though.

[@chigginskeywest]

Here's distinct. The shape. Pixel got rounded corners like an iPhone. And I hear the S25 Ultra is going to also copy iPhone with rounded corners. But why is the screen resolution lowered. My 6 Pro has better resolution than the 8 Pro. Is it for better battery life. Because I'm sure I cannot tell the difference probably? But still.
