I started using Pixels last April and it's great to use devices with no bloatware.

[@LupinKing]

Amen! Just got my Pixel 8 2 days ago and I was so happy there wasn’t any bloatware and I’ve genuinely been enjoying using it!

[@dukejukem8843]

It's still filled with "bloatware" it's just extra Google apps instead of what everyone else pushes

[@GD2X]

But you can delete most of the samsung apps, and you can easily hide them so you don't even know they are there. I don't understand this bloatware complaint anymore, it's getting old. Surely you can think of something else that you prefer about the pixels over the samsungs?

I went from iphone 13 pro max to pixel 8 pro. The format of the pixel it makes it feel lesser. Why isnt the phone as wide as the iphone or galaxy? Recently got the s24 ultra and it actually feels like an upgrade from the 13 pro max.

Pixel has won me over with speech to text. I’ve played around with my 6a a lot and found that voice to text and photo editing and magic eraser work off line. It’s doing more on device than I originally thought.

[@brandonoouah]

Yes! I'm on s23u and the voice to text is horrible with the Samsung Keyboard. It's super slow and inconsistent. Incredibly poor compared to Google Keyboard. And on the Pixel devices you get Next Generation Assistant which can stay on and input punctuation.

[@jasonbaker5430]

@@Gwrightproductions1 ive been using samsung phones for the last 5 years and yes speech to text is on the Gboard but there is a huge difference in the way the two phones process the speech to text and it's a completely different experience on the Pixel. I'm not knocking Samsung because I actually love the OneUI and all of its features and there's some Samsung apps that I prefer to the stock Google apps. Galaxy and Pixel are two different android experiences.

[@Gwrightproductions1]

@@jasonbaker5430 oh yeah you're right. I love my pixel 2XL. I ran out of storage space was the problem. Google makes their apps better on the pixel. Offline translator and call menu shortcuts to name a couple of exclusives. It's the smartest phone on the market. But ... Galaxy still has the edge with One UI.

[@Char-lei]

In my country the pixel 8 pro is $200 less than rhe s24+ when both are full price so far from the price of the s24 ultra. I like both brands but am currently on a p8p and very happy with my choice. Its not perfect, but no phone is and the battery easily makes it through an enitre day for me. The phone is smooth, snappy, camera rarely gives me a bad photo and makes most of them fabulous and I'm finding rhe simplicity in what it does refreshing. Thank you for providing a balanced view.

[@nas917]

I have both phones. I love using the Pixel 8 Pro. However, there's no comparing the Pixel 8 pro to the S24 Ultra. The Ultra is a true flagship with an all-day battery life. I wish the Pixel had the snapdragon 3 processor, which may help with the battery life. Also, I understand that the Pixel might be on sale. However, please don't forget about the countless deals that Samsung has in place for there the S24 lineup.

[@michaelbrown5680]

I agree except to the cameras, pixel photos just can't be beat

[@patburns64]

I bought the pixel 8 pro and I love it. I also purchased the s24+ which I also really love. I was going to get the s24 ultra, but the trade in for the s24+ was a better deal. I think its a great device. Pretty much every year I get the new pixel because of the stock android and amazing camera. The only thing I wished the p8 pro had was something to compete with Dex. I enjoy the s24+ a lot. If I had to choose between them, I would have to say pixel 8 pro!

Well I love the pixel.. Ive bought the pixel 6, 7, 7 pro and now the 8 which I sold and kept the s24... Coz I had to give my pixel 8 at the service centre and apparently the microphone, speakers had some issues and eventually I was told the motherboard itself is damaged.. And to add to that there was some white spot on the display... They changed the display and the other parts, repaired and returned the phone which was then working fine... But got me thinking how can so many parts of a phone go bad in just 3 months...! Decided to sell before something else stopped working.. I loved the pixel but the quality is still inferior and parts get spoilt at the drop of a hat..! Samsung galaxy s24 and iPhone 15 were the choices I had.. s24 it is... ❤❤❤

[@jmixen1]

My only reason I traded my Pixel 7 pro in for an iPhone, was because it was dropping cell signal. That made me miss a couple of calls from family and work which was unacceptable. However I do miss a lot of the features from the Pixel, and if they have fixed the modem and it's cell connection issues on the 8 pro and the 9 pro whenever that drops. I might make the switch back to Pixel this year :)

[@davidfox9642]

I totally agree with you. I had been a Samsung fan user 100 percent for 10 plus years. Didn't think I'd ever leave. But I changed carriers and by far the best deal for me was pixel 7 pro with the 8 around the corner. 7 was nice but I was ready to come back to Samsung. But then the 8 pro came out. I get it optimistic it would stay in my possession very long. I was amazed yes the AI number 1 and surprised with the AI the chip is snappy very pleased. Yes you can do benchmark after benchmark and Samsung is superior but in real life you notice no differences and even so all positives now to me outweighs any negatives. I thought I'd miss the S- pen but the AI and my swipe typing has increased my typing to be as fast or faster than using the S-pen.

On my Pixel 7 the battery life is decent when I'm on wifi but when I'm on strictly mobile data the battery life is horrible. I still run into reception/connectivity issues occasionally also and that's just not acceptable in 2024. Has the Pixel 8 Pro greatly improved on those issues or is 2025's Pixel lineup with the new TSMC made chips (& hopefully better modems) going to be the first chance we may see real improvement there? Please advise your thoughts. Thank you.

It’s comical how misinformed you are

[@Ignozi]

Guys, it won't kill you to admit that the Tensor is several steps behind Samsung's chip.

[@bEtZeRo0]

You got an attitude problem mr!

[@TechOdyssey]

Thanks!

[@AdamSmith-gs2dv]

The problem for both of these phones is that the OnePlus 12 exists and it's 90% of the S24U for the price of the Pixel 8 Pro (oh and it lets you disable the stupid nav bar which Samsung and Google don't allow you to do without root)

[@Eazy6874]

Pixel 8 pro vs OnePlus 12?🤔

[@mrgibbles09]

This

[@AdamSmith-gs2dv]

OnePlus 12. TSMC >>>>>>>>>>> Samsung

[@garryetheridge4030]

I watch all your content. Anything related to pixel devices is only relevant in USA.

[@waynehighfield2094]

Is it an S23 or a S24?

[@winchester9432]

True and factual as always. Thanks so much...

[@TechOdyssey]

You’re very welcome

[@Josephujakpor]

I think people shit on Google Pixel because of the big camera bar bulging out, the app display and the wallpapers

[@ColinBeastLee]

Heard anything about iPhone 15 pro getting Ai stuff?

[@TechOdyssey]

Not a peep

[@ColinBeastLee]

@@TechOdysseydamn Im hoping they will though

[@carlosh7166]

Thank you....

[@tracybrovan3997]

Techodyssey , off topic do you use any antivirus on your phone? If so which one? Thx

[@TechOdyssey]

I do not.

[@jevonsims900]

Does it really matter? At this point Google could sell an actual turd and get praise for it.

[@TechOdyssey]

Yeah no

[@levil4012]

Got the P8P but have to admit I’m curious about the OP12

[@AdamSmith-gs2dv]

I have the 12 (the emerald color with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage). Absolutely amazing phone especially for the $700 I got it for

[@stevenlowe5313]

I think you should compare the 8 pro with the S24+ as they are similarly sized and priced.

[@TechOdyssey]

I will. But I'm only making one video at a time

[@peterpersaud718]

Gemini was supposed to be good but is messing up big

[@mohammedbarakat79]

I like google pixel 8 pro ❤ Great review

[@TechOdyssey]

Thank you!

[@AngelyN04]

Pixel 8 pro

[@ashe.gaming]

I didn't consider Samsung when deciding on my upgrade. It was between the Apple iPhone 15 Pro or the Google Pixel 8 Pro. The Pixel's 5x zoom won me over the 3x zoom on the iPhone 15 Pro. I might consider iPhone again in December 2025, depending on the features of the iPhone 17 Pro and the performance of the TSMC-made Tensor G5 in the Pixel 10 Pro. As for Samsung, I prefer to avoid its bloatware and duplication of apps that Google provides anyway.

You can literally delete or disable all apps.
