@@MrKkoool in terms of design?

@@rico4you I'm happy you're enjoying it. I never had an issue with the speed of the Pixel 8's fingerprint scanner, but it is very unreliable with dirty or wet hands. I believe ultrasonic is more reliable when strange conditions are less than optimal.

@@sullystechhub ultrasonic is basically constantly reliable whether dry, wet hand...and real fast. Optical how you position any or wet can fail on 8 PRO.

@@rico4you yeah I've had a few phones that have used ultrasonic sensors.

@@arkiesketch it's a shame that it works that way. It shouldn't.

I love them too. I wish they invested in hardware as much as they invested in software.

@@PerryHacker not for sure what you mean.

@@sullystechhub pwm is the flicker rate of the screen. Pixel phones have low rates so some people get sick. Not all are effected by this just some. I have to switch to a high pwm phone

@@PerryHacker ah yeah. Rule of acronyms. Anyways. Yeah maybe so. Never noticed.

That's one way to look at it. I would say that they aren't designed for obsolescence. 7 years of updates is quite a long time. Also, a lot of people don't spend a lot of time on their phones. Turning off notifactions for social media, uninstalling social media, etc. helps to mitigate screen time. Also, I think for a lot of people, the smartphone is most importantly their primary and most available camera. For me, that's how I see it. I'm all about the camera.

@@sullystechhub If you spend 1000 dollars on something, it shouldn't have a pre- planned obselence at all. Let alone just several years. They even now tell you it's going to happen and we still keep buying their phones because we're addicted to them. They could just keep updating your phone... But then they won't sell as many phones. I have a camera. They are great and do a much better job. You should try one - you'll be surprised at how much we don't need our phones to be this 'do all' device. You have no idea how much time, mental energy and happiness your phone drains from you until you don't have one for a month. Try it and I'd wager a large sum that you'll be happier, more relaxed, more creative, sleep better and think clearer for that month.

@@k4kes I think it depends on how you plan to use the phone. I use the 50mp + RAW photo mode on my phone a lot and I have used 244gb so far. I have the 512gb model. Obviously I use a lot more storage than the average user, but you should know your usage pretty well. Also, how long you plan to keep the phone makes a difference. If you upgrade every year, it's less important. If you go 2 or 3 years between upgrades, you probably want to go to higher storage option.

That's very kind praise. Thank you.

Yeah the blue is cool. I still think the best pixel color of all time was the 7 Pro's hazel color (light olive glass + gold accents)

@@josesabat1710 I definitely think that the Pixel 8 Pro is among the best for total video quality.

Indeed

That's not the issue. You can normally use night mode and RAW in conjunction with no problem. It was some type of malfunction of the phone.

I have bounced back and forth between Samsung and Google flagships since 2012. At this point, I think I can solidly say I prefer Google phones. Samsung: More features, more powerful, more versatile Google: More helpful, better results straight out of camera, more ergonomic in the hand. Since the camera matters to me more than just about anything else, I prefer the Pixel. But I believe I will be jumping on the Xiaomi bandwagon when the 15 Ultra releases. I really like the Leica color processing and the industry-best hardware for the cameras.

@@sullystechhubno Xiaomi will ever reach the camera results of pixel phones bro.

@@Catalanskrr I agree, in the sense that Google will never be able to reach the results of Xiaomi. I don't really care much about straight-out-of-camera processing. I shoot many of my smartphone photos in RAW format and edit afterwards. For that, file format and hardware matters way more. Xiaomi has a superior file format and also has bigger sensors. Also, I am not a fan of very smartphone-y looking photos. Google, Samsung, and Apple all have very smartphone-looking color processing. I'm not a fan. You can get a decent result if you edit, but the straight out of camera colors are definitely a bit smartphone-y.

@@sullystechhub but that’s a extremely niche usecase. I would go as far and say 99% of all people who use phones don’t shoot raw and don’t do big edits afterwards. So it doesn’t even matter to the normal dude that the hardware itself or the data format is better. What matters to nearly every single person is the result right from the phone itself without any tweaking. And that’s where the pixel just wipes the floor with any Xiaomi phone.

@@Catalanskrr Yes, 99% of people are not "pro" users. I made a whole video about this point. The Pixel "Pro" phones are not pro. They don't have pro features. They have "make it easier to use" features, which don't actually raise the upper ceiling of possible performance. And yeah, if you like really cartoony colors and unrealistic HDR, straight out of camera photos are probably fine. That's my point though. What I just described, again, is not "pro." That's very "generic, average consumer." Xiaomi, Vivo, Sony, and in some ways Samsung, all have actual pro features for people who want to be able to achieve a nearly DSLR-like result.

Wait for the upcoming 9 pro. It’s smaller and the camera housing has changed.

If you use a case on your phone, it makes no difference. I am not in the habit of raw-dogging my phones.

Unfortunately. It's only that way because none of the camera sensors got a size bump. In a time where basically all Chinese flagships are doing 1-inch sensors, Google should have taken the leap.

I don't think it's regarded as old. It's just not going to be the "newest" Pixel in about 2 weeks.

Its a clickbait..just for some hundred more views

@@hritikeshdas40 What precisely is clickbait?

@@GalkinFlash how do you mean the question?

@@sullystechhub I don't see the difference in the video, and on my phone when I turn it on p3

@@GalkinFlash the difference is small, but it's more noticable on your own phone because your own phone supports the color profiles on the screen. Not every platform / not even screen will be able to display the colors.
