What app do u use for your anime wallpaper

[@npb1962]

Had the Pixel 8 since Wednesday (my first Pixel), arrived a day early, and am loving it so far. The data transfer from a OnePlus was so smooth and easy looking forward to the weekend to test the camera at my birthday bash 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

[@erebostd]

Mine (8 oro) arrived a day earlier, too 😁👍. Such amazing devices, they are a joy to use!

[@XXXivan1618XXX]

Waiting for next friday and will join the club as well boys! Glad u like it.

[@KilowattAvenue]

Mines coming Wednesday! Super excited as it is my first new phone in 4 years 🥳

[@davidchilds1443]

Had mine a few weeks and it's amazing. Not popular opinion with the Samsung fan boys though. Pixel is best phone I've ever had to date

[@erebostd]

@@davidchilds1443 ignore them. It’s the same with graphic card nerds. „Mine has XXXX points more, it’s so amazing!“ - while you buy the card with the best power to price ratio and a silent fan to enjoy gaming. Yes, you might only game with 90 fps on high, and not with 120…. But who cares? It’s both fluent, and after 60 or 70 fps it’s just numbers for most people (especially those over 25). So smile, comment their amazing phone (and the Samsung devices are very good phones, i just wouldn’t buy one after i experience first hand how they treat customers) and enjoy your own device. Which is far superior in my view, too 😉

[@ABP1638]

Got my first pixel ever (Pixel 8). Love it to death

[@monkeyboy9896]

Thanks for the warning about the non-rectal thermometer functionality😮. ✌️❤️🍻.

[@Big53Smalls]

I always love the wallpapers you show off with your phone because how clear and clean they look. What wallpaper app do you use?

[@gibbonschip]

Just ordered a Pixel 8 to replace my Samsung S9. I didn't know tech videos could be so funny and entertaining. I hope my new phone works as well as you do.

[@michaelball93]

The summarise feature in Google assistant is apparently only available in the US. Something they don't tell you in the marketing.

[@sofiajohansson8537]

I gotta be honest I work for a big consumer electronics chain and we got a staff offer to buy Google Pixel 8 Pro for a massive discount. I bought it because I absolutely love the Porcelain finish. I did not think about any features other than I wanted a bigger screen than my Samsung S21 (and also I can't stand Samsung and all the useless apps that you cannot delete). This video was VERY helpful and I am even more convinced I did a reslly good choice in buying this device. Now I can enjoy it even more! Thank you enormously!

[@seankkg]

About the AI wallpaper; there are 12 options to choose on my Pixel 8, so it's possible yours simply isn't updated. Just worth noting.

[@radkamatejkova]

Got my Pixel 8 pro on Wednesday, it's a lot of a phone and still learning so thanks for all the tips.

[@MrGyges]

I lust after the Pro model, but I’ll probably settle for the sensible 8. Just like a real marriage, eh ? Thanks for your accurate but eccentric review. 👍

[@dazmoody7327]

Ordered one of the pros 256gb to be delivered yesterday only to be told by EE that they were out of stock. Now been told it could take up to 28 or more for them to get some more. They should never of let me order one for launch day if they had none. Wee bit pissed about ir

[@Mubashir_AK]

That's insane. Why open so many pre orders if you don't have stock?

[@georgecostanza5749]

Mate, you might have dyslexia. You skip words while writing. I have similar symptoms. That is why I tell you.

[@dazmoody7327]

So true in the ordering. Always thought that about having dyslexia all my life. It would explain a lot when I was younger always struggled at school

[@shroom2967]

Love my 8 Pro, jumped on it after they threw the watch in for the preorder, just got it Saturday and the watch comes end of the month, but so far love my P8P! Such a good phone so far

[@Tewahedo]

How is the battery life?

[@beekeough1323]

Picking up my pro today, having to wait a week I've seen a few of these tip type videos. Loved yours! Thanks

[@noelgomile3675]

No worries uncle Spurt, I got the Sting reference.

[@Zhuk-zc8es]

I didn't, can you explain? I'm gen z, so I might just be too young.

[@noelgomile3675]

@@Zhuk-zc8es He's a musician, just diversify your music tastes and you'll be able to catch any reference old or new.

[@1Moonchild]

@@Zhuk-zc8es Yes, Sting is a musician (frontman/bassist with The Police before going solo). The reference was to Sting's practicing Tantric sex (lasting 7 hours, give or take)

[@hazellyon1200]

Just want to say thank you for your videos they have helped me a lot in the last year or so to pick a phone especially whiching from flagship phones when mid range do just as good of a job so thanks again and keep up the good work :)

[@sancti5080]

Thanks I've been searching for a video of the software experience like that for days, sadly I live in a country that doesn't have any google shops and there no intention from google to publish there phones here, but I get excited to experience what are the new feature on pixels and how the os looks like , so much thanks to you for giving us such and experience with this premium video.

[@MBF120]

I just spent 30 minutes with the A.i wallpaper, so cool

[@2facefigures]

I just got my 8 pro and this video was really helpful. Thanku

[@Johnny5tele]

Great vid, just got a Pixel 8 Pro yesterday - the only thing I’m concerned about is the battery life. Anyway - where do you get all these Anime pics/wallpapers - they look great.

[@chrish4634]

Thanks Tech Spurt for the info as always :D 😛

[@johnwhitehead238]

Wow! The Pixel 8 & 8 pro are truly mental with their wallpapers & themes!

[@garys2187]

Great job. I am late to the party (won't get my Pixel 8 pro for another few days), but your video has helped me to get an idea of where to start.

[@miguelferreira1983]

Can you make a video about a good budget compact smartphones? Compact smartphones are the future, if I wanted to walk with a tablet in my pocket I buy one...

[@almcl9391]

Great content you're knocking out 👏

[@Ipinoluwa]

Great vid. Uncle Spurt....wow Pixel 8 and 8 Pro are real fun phones...I guess Pixel phones generally

[@0ricky7]

Sent my pixel 8 pro back just gonna buy the 7 pro instead,I'll wait the year and get the 9 pro next October

[@hhhmmmmmmmm]

If u can hold out on the 9, the 10 is supposed to have tsmc chip. Could do wonders but light years away, lol

[@kafadek825]

[@Mohamed.Dardour]

Hey Bro nice work! Can you please test the screen display of the pixel 8 pro ? I noticed that the screen is so dark when it's on 50% brightness (comparing to the S23 ultra which is much brighter --- 30% or 40% of Brightness on S23 ultra = 70% of Brightness on pixel 8 pro // however, on 100% they are identical). Thanks!!

[@BigJeffroeX438]

Thanks for your video I really enjoyed watching your content uncle Spurt can't wait my Pixel 8 pro Is arriving today.sending respects from the other side of the pond Big Jeffroe

[@rogert3533]

Does the android 14 release change which low/mid range phones you recommend? I'd love a video on it. I'm aiming to buy a new phone during black week/black Friday, but not sure which one. I've read some of the issues of the 6a and 7a have been fixed with android 14, but can't find any videos that reviews this. Thanks for all your great content.

[@TrevorsMailbox]

Please post the wall paper when you make it. I'd love that.

[@FilipMatacin]

I hope you got the advice when reviewing the GAMES chapter in a phone review.. Cheers 🎉

[@BBQ_Boss]

Just got one today, excited to give it a go!!!

[@season_warrior8021]

So, how is it going? Can you please share your experience?

[@jeremycarr3920]

Is it worth spending on a pixel 8 or 7a, I've got a pixel 5 currently won't go back to Samsung or other brands.

[@robperry6401]

Actually laughed out loud... Don't drive the Pixel 8 up your arse 🤣🤣🤣

[@YasirAlani]

My eyes are bad as well. I can't even find the Magnifier tool. It's not showing up when I scroll through the app page. Is there somewhere where I have to turn it on?

[@asleeds]

Same for me on the 8 Pro. Cannot find the magnifier tool.

[@kane2369]

The background music track is particularly ominous today.. Getting in the spooktober spirit?

Hi how are you finding this phone I'm looking to upgrade to this one from the one plus 10 pro?

[@danielramwell9764]

I just got my pixel 8 today. My camera area doesn't have the magic editing, any suggestions on what I need to do? Is the magic editor only on the pro?

[@Robbo9981]

I think the magic editor is gonna be released as a feature drop soon.

[@Anxietywilnotwin]

@@Robbo9981 It appeared, you have to uninstall Google photos then reinstall and the magic editor is there. Some sort of bug.

[@BigBenlolz]

Hilarious how they removed the notification LED and we have blinking flash and screen instead...

[@oshadhatharusha864]

Quickly Uncle Spurt❤😊

[@_Gecko111]

Ok, you convinced me. The pixel 8 pro is probably the best android phone on the market. I say this as a Samsung and Xiaomi fan.

[@doomy_doomy2225]

I wouldn't say the best. The processor has more to be desired. I'd say the S23 ultra is still better, but with other new phones coming out in the next few months we will see how the phone holds up.

[@existencerohf]

5:59 Thank you for the advice! A bit too last tho...

[@tommywiththeface]

The background music legit gave me intense anxiety

[@E_Dtl]

Does the phone have to be so close to the object to measure temperature? My first thought, was using it as thermometer for cooking, but if I have to put it that close to boiling oil, I Don't think so.

[@malcontent_1]

Thanks Spurty - you give good tip

[@TofuLoverz]

Nah, your emoji wallpaper was actually quite lit.🔥 But i think the wallpaper you used on 7 pro was better

[@Robertopontiac]

Has it got Fall Detection?

[@nazosman984]

7 years updates. Does this include OS updates?

[@SunriseWaterMedia]

Night light? YES 😅

[@Frank-go7li]

Not sure if it's just my phone or if it's a common issue.Signal strength is total crap.I have 2 phones on Verizon, iPhone 13 and new pixel 8.I work in an area that has excellent coverage.The iPhone is running at full bars with Internet up over 250 mpgs and the pixel is at 1 bar with around 35 mpgs , haven't seen full bars anywhere.Thank God I haven't sent my pixel 7 in yet , that wasn't as good as iPhone but nowhere near as bad as the 8 .

[@DaveQZ85]

I had to reverse back and do a double take on the temperature sensor tip if I really heard what I heard 😂

[@abrealgaming5649]

Got all excited when I thought he was referencing Sting the wrestler then I realized there's like some singer out there with that name.

[@pi1392]

Thanks to the live translator now I can watch Japanese dramas live without waiting for Subs.

[@igoresque]

I'm gonna keep asking about your rationale behind filming in 25fps for youtube, where most devices watching have 60 Hz screens. Why 25 and not 30? Surely, it can't be because 24/25 is "cinematic". There are many reasons to film in 30, while I can't see any for 25, at least for watching on 60 Hz screens.

[@all.day.day-dreamer]

I'm assuming he is just tech casual in that, it's just not important to him. And yes, I've seen this with other KZbin channels that focus on tech reviews but do not exactly embrace it. His content is meant for the tiny phone screen. When I've tried to view his content on my home theater in the living room, the quality and FPS takes a nose dive. Again, he is tech casual, and it's not important to him would be my guess.

[@igoresque]

@@all.day.day-dreamer I mean, this also affects phone video camera reviews, as 30fps phone footage with good stabilization converted down to 25 produces frame pacing issues on its own, which is then exaggerated by mismatch between 25 and 60 framerate, making it seem like phone's stabilization is not working properly.

[@rh5340]

nice video

[@PalashHolkar_]

Y night mode is enabled on ur device Looks bad

[@Igosus]

I just bought one, does it also take you 2-3 seconds to load the desktop wallpaper instead of immediately, and does the phone also take a very long time to edit photos or videos? or maybe it's a matter of waiting for a new update. For me, the pixel is very slow, at least now.

[@Igosus]

I will also add that a can of beer from the fridge after 1 day still shows me 16-17 degrees, which I doubt. and when I change the thermometer settings to metal, it shows -20, etc. This thermometer is some kind of fiction, although the body seems to measure ok.

[@ltd1980]

I've got the 7 pro but wont be upgrading. I've not been impressed. The battery life on mine is poor, charging speed slow and after 12 months I have terrible screen burn
