Pixel 8 Pro (Obsidian)| Unboxing & Initial Impressions

[@tulipwell9904]

To be honest the idea to go with flat screen is really great because curved screen are costlier then flat screen to repair and also not very much tempered glass available for curved glasses. And also making 8 a compact phone is really cool because many people want compact phones

[@TechThatOut]

Agree with all that apart from me like slimmer bezels & nice to hold phones.

[@TheChazas]

Stable update is coming out on 11th as also embargo lifts, same as Camera app update to unlock certain features. Don't rush the review.

[@TechThatOut]

Will keep in mind. Thanks!

[@mjfro1]

I love that they switched to the flat display! The curved edge display trend needs to end.

[@leonhaji1680]

I have a crazy suspicion this channel will grow a lot over the next 6 days😁. Subbed

[@Goldmanknight]

proably .subbed

[@TechThatOut]

Haha, hopefully🤞

[@XeZrunner]

Would love to see you cover haptics and the software smoothness/responsiveness, even if just briefly. That's what I'm most curious about at the moment.

[@TechThatOut]

Will definitely cover it in my review!

[@vigneshp2433]

Bro, is it possible for you to make a review before oct 11th?

[@MikeGratis]

Round edges & flat screen make me happy. 😁 And the screen initially looks sharp, too. Also good to know on the heat during set-up. Pretty awesome wallpaper options, looking forward to playing with that.

[@TechThatOut]

Thanks!

[@debasishpothal2414]

is the fingerprint sensor optiocal like last year or ultrasonic ?

[@hhhmmmmmmmm]

Please cover: battery life, overheating, charging speed, modem/dropped calls. Thank u, if u can.

[@TechThatOut]

Will do!

[@lifeison1]

Hi could you please compare the fingerprint sensor between pixel 8 pro and 7 pro ? Many Thanks

[@TechThatOut]

Both work as expected. No issues.

[@adhi7233]

Give me a advice Galaxy s23 or pixel 8 which worth

[@57577566475]

Would love to see a full comparison to s23 ultra and why one may choose one over the other

[@rsvideos3226]

S23 ultra or pixel 8 pro? Or should i add more and go with i phone 15 pro max..new subscriber 👍

[@pforpramit]

Hello, thank you for this video! Wanted to check, is this 128GB version of Pixel 8 Pro going to be the only option for Indian consumers this year, or there will be any higher storage version, say 256GB, in the pipeline, maybe little later?

[@TechThatOut]

Not really sure. I would not have my hopes up!

[@nayeemkhazzzzz]

Hey bro, just watched your early unboxing video of the Indian unit of the Pixel 8 Pro - super cool! Quick question, if I were to buy the Pixel from the US, would the warranty still be applicable in India?

[@MrHollow]

no

[@laewox]

Thank you for the amazing unboxing with a lot of informations :). I like the way how honest and calm you talk, exactly the kind of video I was looking for. You gained a subscriber more. Best regards from Germany

[@TechThatOut]

Thank you so much!

[@PierreDennis]

Great review. I miss the days when new phones came with a pair of headphones...those were the days...

[@TechThatOut]

You're not alone!

[@SzechuanChickenDog]

A lot of the Chinese phones still do...and a case as well as a high watt charging block and screen protector...America's big 3 suck these days

if u get the pixel 8 or 8 pro cant u just get the buds for free😭

[@soberanisfam1323]

Pixel 8 come with free buds 😂

[@kunalsharma2098]

Nice point to put out in the end, should i consider buying it from outside India? Because its very expensive here.

[@abdulsajid8019]

How does your pixel 7 pro have a matt camera vizer? Is that some matt skin that you have applied?

[@NearynHub]

Nice overall impressions! Are you allowed to upload the full review the 11th or 12th? I am switching from Xperia to Pixel because of 7 years OS and security updates. I wonder if its possible to buy and change batteries (with some tools).

[@TechThatOut]

All depends on where you stay.

I’m coming from an iPhone 14 Pro Max, only been an Apple user since day one.. I’m excited for this! Not sure if I want the blue or black.. But I’ll see when I visit the NYC next month while on vacation.

[@eduard6450]

Definitely want to see if the face recognition has improved. I heard that you could now use it for banking apps but I wonder if it also somehow works better in difficult lighting conditions

[@TechThatOut]

Will see if the apps accept face unlock or not

[@Mkhl4Sure]

@@TechThatOut it's not up to the app, if they already accept fingerprint then face unlock should work automatically as the face unlock and fingerprint unlock is unified as android biometric

Please when you make a camera comparison. Can you please upload and give a link for all those photos, maybe a google photos link. I want to chechk the new 50mp jpegs on P8 Pro

[@prannayreddy]

Hey can you give us a quick update post 24 hours of use about the thermals and modem? Since, you’re one of the early ones to have it, it would be helpful. Thanks!

Keep in mind the phone will be running on pre-leased firmware so hope you take your time on the review especially for adaptive battery to also kick in, can't wait to get mine as well.

[@TechThatOut]

I see. Didn't expect that for a retail unit.

[@sptech321]

Thanks for this video... Can you please guide me should I buy iPhone 15 or Google pixel 8

[@TechThatOut]

Depends on your OS preferences

[@MrJBM247]

Love the matte finish this year around. I read where a site was saying that the modem won't be as good (won't connect as well) as the on in the current Snapdragon 8. Is there a way to test that? I know I've had issues with the signal dropping on my Pixel 7 Pro.

[@TechThatOut]

Let me try & see if that can be figured out

[@adityaraju1737]

I got my pixel 8pro delivered but not sure how to avail preorder benefits like on pixel watch. Even KZbin premium is not getting enabled.... Please cover thermals while on general use 😊

Finally, first and really good, detailed review on new pixel. Huge thanks for your vid and keep it up

[@TechThatOut]

Thank you! But the full review will come in a few days

[@chrislopez1918]

Still using my OnePlus 8t because of the flat 120hz panel , this is a plus glad 2 see that they went with a flat panel

[@blueff8844]

Google already talked a lot about the cameras at IO, but what they didn't talk about is the performance and thermals of the Tensor G3. Also, big youtubers who got early access are not allowed to make videos on that subject till oct.12 So you can make videos on *performance and thermals* to give different content that people want to see and also give your review on Haptics, outside screen visibility , fingerprint scanner (working with wet hands), charging speed

[@TechThatOut]

I'll cover all of these. Thanks! Also my unit is a retail unit, so I am not under an embargo. Hence, subscribe!

[@blueff8844]

Done !

[@dineshrawat1818]

Does Pixel 8 Pro feels snappy and animation feels smoother or not? Does Video have sound grains or not? Can we record calls on Pixel 8 Pro? How is Haptics? Does the Speaker Sound and earphone 🎧 sound on Pixel 8 Pro?

[@TechThatOut]

Few of your question are answered here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpjKhqeuic-tZpo

[@abethegamerful]

Is it possible for you to cover gaming performance with FPS?

[@raghavkejriwal3817]

How's the SOT and battery drain?

[@Twanger..]

I want a speaker comparison please.. I really hope they're improved.

[@TechThatOut]

Understood, will try!

[@daboross2]

I do prefer the feeling of the curve on my Pixel 6 Pro, but I think a flat display is still a lot more practical... Curved display is amazing for gestures without a case, but absolutely sucks with a case, and it breaks a lot easier on corner drops than a flat display when run caseless.

[@TechThatOut]

True!

[@SukumarPatel]

Check the 5g reception, thermals, fingerprint performance and face unlock.

[@TechThatOut]

Will do the same

[@JanagamVenu]

Hi brother. My brother is planning to bring pixel 8pro from USA. I am not worried about warranty. My doubt is phone will work without any problem or not? Please clarify. Thank you in advance 😊

[@TechThatOut]

Hey, the warranty mostly wont be entertained if bought from outside India. Would suggest you read all the TnC to understand & decide.

[@kamathverse2555]

Small observation - Please use the denoise function while unboxing the products, it cuts out the AC hum noises very well!

[@anjalirawat2827]

Hello sir, I have pre ordered Google pixel 8 in india. A bit confused whether i should go with pixel 8 or go with iphone 14 plus or samsung s23 as I have heard a lot of heating issues about pixel Please help.

Shoud I go with Pixel 7 Pro right now on sale? My main concern is network reception and Battery life ?

[@aijiajiajin]

I couldn't find the temperature app as well at a retail store the other day. Maybe comes with an update?

[@niks1136]

What's the purpose of C to C cable? And which charger adapter would you recommend?

[@TechThatOut]

Which country are you from? Can recommend brands accordingly

[@lonniergmail]

Google Pixels use (PD) 'Power Delivery' control specification, that takes the voltage right up to 9+ volts. It does not use QC3. On my pixel 7, I got 22 and 1/2 watts rate. And Samsung sold a nice fast PD charger that was on sale.

[@usmanabdulkadir3334]

Awesome unboxing keep it up as always new subscribers from Nigeria bro

[@TechThatOut]

Thanks for watching & subscribing!

[@juan2three4]

I think you mean fortunately a flat screen. There was no benefit to the curves other than preventing the install of a tempered glass screen protector. This is a welcomed change for many Pixel fans.

[@ajinkyabhave7213]

I have pre ordered pixel 8. Switching to pixel 8 from oneplus 8T. Can I use the same charger of the 8T for the pixel? Do mention about charger(s) in your review video

Is it advisable to get Pixel 7 during this sale, as my budget is low. Does it have the network issues, I sometimes goto my village and network is bad out there, will it work there, have they fixed the issue.

[@TechThatOut]

That's a hard one. If you go to places with possible low connectivity, I will advise against getting a Pixel 7

[@heavenlyxtacy]

@@TechThatOut thank you so much for the reply, I will skip then and by the way nice video, you were the first video on pixel 8 I watched. Give a long time review please, may be I will skip this year and buy pixel 8 next year when the price drops, hope 8 is great.

[@TechThatOut]

@heavenlyxtacy thank you!

[@heavenlyxtacy]

@@TechThatOut Also do check the network issues with pixel 8, as I read that they used the same modem as used in tensor 2. Kindly test the same, as I may go for pixel 8.

[@TechThatOut]

@heavenlyxtacy you should follow on Twitter for all such updates👀 twitter.com/tech_that_out

[@5150crazyfun]

It looks sharp and the thermals sound better. I also noticed when you turned it on, the screen looked really bright. How was the brightness once you started using it? The face unlock sounds promising this year as well being more secure and being used to open apps. Hopefully it’ll work better in darker environments than the 7 series did. Then I’m very interested to see how battery life is this year. On the 7 last year when it launched I was getting like 4 and a half hours of sot. Hopefully this year is improved with the G3.

[@TechThatOut]

I'll try to cover all of these in the full review

[@Sergio-wh3bt]

Hi.. Is there desktop mode?

[@tudorrose3443]

In the specs it says it has face unlock as well as fingerprint reader. Have you tried it? Hopefully its as good as the 4xl whiach is my present phone, thanks from the uk 👍

[@TechThatOut]

It technically won't be better than the 4 series as it's just 2D sensing. They can try to perceive depth out of the same and try to make it more secure. I'm yet to test but will cover it in the full review so hope you subscribed!

[@richardshultz3599]

Does 8pro take portrait photo using 5x telephoto camera sensor or main camera sensor?

[@Espi68One]

Just ordered one from T-Mobile with a trade in (iphone 7 plus) that gave me $250, brought the price down, but with the case, screen protector and adapter, I still paid $989 total, only saved maybe on the taxes, since, the overall cost of the accessories ($90) and Taxes, ($90), so the trade in basically paid for that. I think it will be a great upgrade from my iphone SE (2016). I don't like large phone, but my older 12 mini was having battery issues, so I went back to the SE (2016) (the SE was a replacement from T-mobile with a new battery), but I have notice slow network, so I think it was time to get a NEW 5G phone.
