Ive been using the 8pro since launch. I did buy a s24+ but i keep coming back to the pixel because of the software and call screening. That feature alone has given me so much relief.
The call screening is actually a game changer, there's so many things that make the pixel special. Who knows, maybe I daily the 9 Pro if the performance is a tad batter.
@@valismind I'm not a mobile gamer or anything, so it gets the job done perfectly for me. Probably will upgrade to the 10 pro when the G5 tensor is made on TSMC and not Samsung
What is the battery life per day
@@nithulan1231 it's been pretty good for me. I've constantly got Spotify playing in the background when I work. So after about 9 hours working with constant background music on Bluetooth gets me home around 60%
@@huntergibbs7797i would do the same when tsmc takes over or if google makes their own chip the only thing keeping me away from pixel is the camera watermark like samsung phones. I have both a pixel 7 and s24+
I've been facing an issue with the top half of the screen being unresponsive to touch sometimes and requires touch multiple times.The only fix i found was to restart the device which sucks.
I would love to see a day in the life with the pixel 8. I also have the pixel 8 pro and I love the phone. It's got great cameras and just overall a great experience
Working on it! :)
The problem is that it is BIG
Pls it good for video shooting?
And can the camera capture images neatly from quite a distance without blurring?
Thank you for the review waiting for a day in the life
Here's the thing: the Pixel 8 is a very big phone, because every phone in 2024 is a very big phone. It's just that what we now consider to be "big" is actually gigantic. I think some people have forgotten that we used to use phones with 4 inch screens.
I think Steve Jobs's iPhon 4 size is a benchmark, super convenient - you can reach any place on the screen without shifting it in your hands. The keyboard is concise and super convenient, watch TH-cam - ok, there is a front-facing camera - it was convenient to use all the functions. Why users prefer shovels is not clear to me now.
It wasn't that long ago when all android phones were made with plastic instead of glass. I remember one of my favorites was carbon fiber, or probably more likely fake carbon fiber. Either way I don't remember thinking it felt cheap. Apple has really changed our perception of quality in the cellphone market.
Hopefully the Tensor G4 in the pixel 9 and 9 pro has some noticeable improvements
Nice review - if you are going to give us more about the Pixel 8, could you tell us about any over-heating issues in hot temperatures, such as an afternoon outdoors at bar-b-q or hiking for a day in summer or just relaxing at the beach. Does it function in Florida when there isn't an R in the month?
it heats up in photo and video use under the sun. I carried out the tests in Asia currently at 36-37°
You gained a new subscriber from Canada. Go Canada 🇨🇦🍁
Or go india
You are not really from Canada
I'm going to the US for the summer I hope I catch a sale or deal because I've heard that a lot, about not buying at full price
If you live outside the US make sure the features you are most interested in are available in your country.
The pixel phones are phenomenal, but you may not get all the magic advertised on reviews or events because many of them are region/language locked.
@@segarrarios Yeah sadly some are locked, I'm from South Africa and bought one in the UK. No call screening is basically the only one I've noticed so far and I can't access 5G, just LTE which is something I've barely noticed. I think no 5G might actually help with battery efficiency too.
On my pixel 8 rose. The color is famtastic and the phone is so fast. Call screening alone is a life saver haha, the cameras are awesome as well
I have the 6a and i have no problems with mine the chip does everything brilliant it learns your patterns and usage im getting the pixel 8 soon i think games run fantastic i have had a bit of warmth when i first play a graphic intensity game but once I've played it once it gets use to what you are playing .
Greetings, does your Google Pixel 8 support stacking of widgets?
Is anyone else having issues with “camera focusing“? My Google 8 camera preview is generally out of focus initially then takes a few seconds to focus . Apparently it’s a software issue, a fix is planned for March 24….
Still it lacks ig
yes the video capturing and display are lagging
Real solid review & man I miss the pixel 8 , I had it through a carrier lease but couldn’t afford it so I had to return it 😢
I love the circle to search cause I use google lens alot so thet feature is key. I love the transcribe too. It's on point
Does anyone have any experience with the scrolling being laggy in certain apps? I really want to try out a pixel as ive always had samsung phones. But i keep seeing that a lot of people are experiencing choppy inconsistent scrolling in certain apps like reddit and the play store. Is it really as bad as some people are saying? Or are only certain devices affected by this?
I am experiencing the lagging issue in display as well as in shooting video
my only gripe with the non pro version is the lack of telephoto, sell the non pro with telephoto at the same price with the pro version and ill snatch it up in a heartbeat
The problem with this phone is the fact the OnePlus 12r and 12 cost the same as the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro and outclass them in every category except the camera. I was going to go with the 8 Pro but I got the OnePlus 12 16GB model for $699 instead
Are you using the OP 12 with T-Mobile by any chance?
Pixel 8 has more software updates
Pixel 8 is smaller
Pixel 8 has wireless charging
Pixel 8 is IP68 rated
Pixel 8 is lighter
Pixel 8 has more AI features
Pixel 8 can be found cheaper in EU
12R has many advantages though. Personally I think it's too big for a non-flagship phone.
@@angrygoldfishop12 had wirless charging too. Sd 8 gen3
Same problem with most OnePlus phones going back many years. Yes they're good for power users, but huge and unwieldy with mediocre cameras. And they could've made the 12R smaller but they didn't. @@angrygoldfish
The one plus is indeed a good phone. I'm a fan. But I like the Pixel too. It's kust a really good phone.
Actually i own pixel 8 but the phone is not allowing me to do some options in the video section for example in the vlur mode i can only film in 24fps it's really terrible but in the video i can see it's 60fps why is it so? and speech enhancement is also allowed only in 30fps could you guys help to find solution?
Xfinity is offering P8 free if you port a number in, 24 months commitment. Going to switch tomorrow.
Getting my pixel 8 from them in 2 days as a second unlimited line. 1 time payment of 40$ a 1 year contract for 25 a month for both lines!
That's so cool😮
I guess I'll buy it...
The only issue that I have is third-party launchers not working the way it should like Nova Launcher.
@@rangerkayla8824 yeah, I had the same issue with my pixel fold. Once I put nova launcher on there it just starts acting weird. Works great on my Samsung devices.
@@rangerkayla8824 It can't be because it was the same on the pixel 7 series, Pixel Fold, & now the P8 series.
Yup, that's an Android 14 thing. Lawnchair Launcher has smoothed most of that out, but it's still a dev preview
I need that day in life vid :D
One of the best phone I ever used I'll always but pixel over iPhone and Samsung
I am the owner of pixel 8 Pro and I can say the most glitchy phone I ever have .only one positive thing the pixel 8 pro unlock 50mp camera which one was locked on 6 and 7 Pro and 8. but if you taking more than three pictures continuously on 50 mp phone will freeze.
Honestly I turned off adaptive network and it fixed any heat issues for me. The phone would get sorta hot on 5G with that setting on. SOT for me has also increased.
The Pixel 8 is my first Pixel phone and I am truly impressed. The only thing I didn't like at first was the size but I got used to it. Love the sound. Best sounding Android phone I have used so far. Call quality on Google Fi is solid. It has also been very reliable so far. Love the camera overall but miss Samsung's moon shot feature. Honestly don't know how Samsung's phones are able to take such beautiful photos of the moon. Great phone really.
Moon pictures are fake bro google it 😂
AI. Even so, the moon shots are fun.
Im having issues with calling quality on mine other than that sweet phone
The Google store running a special on the Pixel 8 for $499.00. It's a "no brainet"! I've always been a fan of Pixel phones.
I was fortunate enough to use both the 8 and 8 pro. I ended up sending back the 8 and got the 8 pro for a good price. I loved the 8 but Google just limited a lot of good features to just the pro model. Hopefully next year Google will bring the much more comfortable matte sides and camera bar to the 9 pro series.
I have this phone, love it! ❤
And me , it's amazing! Despite the ultra haters I love it
@@billyregan2960 I know right, me too haha
Owning a Pixel phone is dream
Why?
The software experience is definitely dream like.
I do think that Tensor will be better or better for gaming in 2-3 cycles. I do think Google is focused on the casual side and putting the AI efficiency first and foremost.
Yeah, casual users are more important. It's the crowd they need to capture first.
I've been using a 6a for more than a year now and i just switched to the 8, i don't see a drastic change in performance to be honest. But the 8 is definitely smaller
How do you like your pixel 8 now
Any performances issues?
@@whysoserious4464 i would just say that the screen and the camera is the upgrade.
@@AK_UK_ no issues on performance, phone is smooth. I don't play games on the phone so I'm not sure about gaming.
Good for Photography, Not Good for Gaming.
Hate the sharp edges without a case.. never tried a pixel phone
The face unlock is very quick and I feel like much more accurate and secure compared to the pixel 7.
…subscribed as soon as I heard “Canada”
I have Verizon. Will Google Pixel 8 work on Verizon or can I select the unlocked version and be able to use it on Verizon ?
Yes
Can you use 50mp mode in regular pixel 8?
no
So if you don't game on your phone it will be fine
nice video cutie
The tensor and the battery are the pixel problems. Other than that, pixel is a fantastic phone. Hell even my P7 is still feels very good
Hey ,i bought mine a few months ago and rn it's battery last 6 hours with screen on ,and I have to say that I use it a lot
Over time I have been able to get around 5 hours out of the battery. Adequate, but not great.
Does it have the 3 finger swipe screenshot or no? I have a Pixel 7 and it doesn't have it. 😅
I'll have to try
Its has double tap on back
double tap on back is superb and its customizable.
@@nipun1188 Yep that's currently what I setup the back for however because of that it does accidental screenshots even if it's not meant to. The 3 finger swipe screenshot could've been a better approach.
I'm considering switching from xiaomi note 12 to either pixel 8 or iphone 13 pro max. What do you suggest is better ?
Pixel 8
I like your reviews.
Greetings from bad bad Russia
Thank you! 🙏🙏 Greetings from Canada :)
I'm in the US and I was able to snag this for free just pay the sales tax etc.........
This phone would be absolutely perfect if only had SD 8 gen2, LTPO screen, 12/256 (UFS 4.0) and 3,5 mm jack.
Then it would have been 1100$ phone
@@Shahzad12357 and (because it's Pixel) after 3 months it will be 749$ 😉
Joke's aside I think SD 8+ gen 1 or Dimensity 8300 would be better choices than this Tensor.
@@Khamae77 but choosing a different soc will make the camera worse thats why they don't do that
@@Shahzad12357 I think that if the quality differences were marginal, most customers would prefer the version without Exynos. Especially since both of these processors are really powerful and there is nothing stopping Google from further modifying them in the part responsible for A.I. or photo/video.
@@Shahzad12357 why bro? Samsung is giving us more than those at 800$... Except the cameras,Pixel is a trash...
Its 400 on mint mobile
I’m here for this
Fancy seeing you here big bro
Hi rjey, love your channel
@@Bambotb 🙌🏾 thank you!!
My biggest gripe with my Pixel 8 is the stuttery scrolling on basically any app which really affects the visual experience of using it. Not sure if anyone else has experienced it but I've had it ever since I got the phone 3-4 months ago.
Maybe Smooth scrolling a.k.a 120hz is not enabled out of the box, it's located in Display section in Settings.
For sure. You are not alone in this respect. I'm definitely in the same boat with my pixel 8 pro
recent update of march did this but it will be fixed in long term.
@@08-huyhungtran38 I've had it enabled since the very first day. It doesn't fix anything. 🙂
@@IamAshishChauhan I've been using it since October but sadly the experience has been the same. It didn't happen just because of the March update. My Pixel 6 which I was using previously was much smoother even at 90Hz.
I got a Pixel 8 shortly after launch. I had too many issues with screen responsiveness. I got a refurbished Iphone 13 that I used for a time till the S24+ was released. The Ultra doesn't appeal to me. I hate the giant size and shape.
I'm considering switching from xiaomi note 12 to either pixel 8 or iphone 13 pro max. What do you suggest is better ?
@@Seefon As limiting as Iphone is, it's the best option in my opinion.
Good one , but if you out all day and using data the battery life is like 4-ish hours SOT. The Pixel 8 only gets good batttery life if your on wifi most of the day.
4 hr SoT on LTE or 5G?
@@Khamae77probably 5g
I get 7.5 to 8 hours SOT on LTE
@@yahyandanusa7834 Thank you, that's exactly what I wanted to read. Even though I bought a total of three Pixel 8, which I had to return due to defects, I still intend to buy this smartphone. And I must admit that call quality and battery life are the most important to me. I don't play any games. I have an old Realme 7 Pro which, even though it is almost 4 years old, still easy lasts 24hr and over 8 SoT.

I love my Pixel 8 Pro , especially the macro mode , I use it all the time on my girlfriend’s breast
All the chip bros bashing the tensor. Uses phone for scrolling tiktok 😂
I m very annoyed by Google keep changing the phone design for the worse....they already had the perfect size and corner in pixel 5, only to go for big and squarish design in pixel 6 and 7...they have the gorgeous fostered glass finish in pixel 3, then go for the glossy finish....again....then this year come back to compact design and foster finish, and we call it an improvement 🙈
So glad Google won phone of the year this last year
Sorry but this is Pixel 8 or Pixel 8 Pro? He mentioned at some point that its Pro version...
Brother what
@@valismind Well since there is 2 versions as you know (cheaper Google Pixel 8 and more expensive Google Pixel 8 Pro) I was just wondering about which one are you talking about... Because you are talking you have Pixel 8 Pro, while in the video title you are mentioning base version Pixel 8... Since I am thinking about buying Pixel 8 (not a Pro version) I was looking for a review of that exact version... So I just wanted to be clear what exactly are you talking about in this video
@@123kiwicek He reviewed the Pixel 8 here.
Is the scrolling choppy for you
Do you have a pixel 8? Is scrolling and switching apps feel jittery? I want to buy this but concerned about this.
Man there's too much cope in this video. If it's a good phone just say so dude there's too many asterisk* attached to Pixel 8's performance.
Because I specifically say that the SOC is the weakest point of this device
I love Iphone but pixel so good
Why would you have to title video honest video?
It’s a buzz word 🤷🏻♂️
How was the battery life ?
I talk about it in the video sir 😉
😂@@valismind
Currently rocking the s23 Ultra, but this phone has peaked my attention!
It's pretty cool!
Same here withe s23u
"Love it so much, I replaced it with something else"
I love coffee but sometimes I go for a tea.
Pixel is great. But for me it doesn't check all the boxes, but I wish it did go be quite honest, I'll never get over the camera, and user experience.
Those Samsung fans still can get a good trade in on the new Pixels if you hurry! 😁
I cringed when I saw the phone face down on that rock. 😫
I have the 6a and 8 pro. The cpu is like 5-10% better according to geekbench.
Absolutely nailed it. Heating while charging and even using 5G is bad. I also dont like it.
🙏 yeah, there's a few things that hurt the Pixel 8 but I hadn't found it to be a big deal breaker. I found 5G to be fine, I'm in Canada though, who knows if it's even real 5G, our telecom services are a scam.
Indian here. Same problems man with 5G. I Subbed. Hope you reach your goals soon. @@valismind
If you are not in a hurry, try using low wattage charger. I use 12W charger for my iPhone , it noticed the 20W Apple charger generates more heat than the 12W Apple charger. BTW I also use Pixel 6a
you're prob not wrong, but I typically don't charge my phone at night / and need to get it running in the morning. - but I'll try this regardless on the Pixel 8 and see if it makes a difference :)
this o pixel 7 pro
To me other than the excellent camera, I find the Pixel 8 to be clunky and heavy and average...
No Google phone after nexus is worth buying. Convinced Google designers that work on pixels are iPhone users.
07:20
Man, what a scam 😂
The phone shown has Power button below Volume buttons which is opposite to what it actually is on Pixel 8
Whoops. I accidentally included 1 shot of the S24, which I shot at the same time as the Pixel 8.
Im sticking to the One Plus 12.
G3 is a bad chip with the heating and network issues. Hope the next G4 will be better wanna try pixel 9 pro.
Got my pixel 8 for 385 pounds
So the other reviews wasn't honest ?!
8 pro, tho 7 pro is better
Decent review, but why are you driving while filming on your phone? It's reckless and illegal and not a good look...
Anyone using daily driver in their video is stopped and blocked, and yes this is a child’s toy.
Google photo sucks for editing its so limited
Display is not great my friend
East or West samsung is the best 👌 👍
Google phones look like a Samsung trying to be iPhone 😂😂😂😂 iPhones look way better and that is a fact not a opinion
I actually disagree. Pixel 8 pro is peak comfort & is the best looking slab imo.
😂 the P8 is just a toy please don't get offended
I've used Pixels. I doubt anyone really uses Call Screen. 6-7 Hrs SOT is lackluster in 2024 for a flagship.
Garbage phone. CANNOT connect android audio and make calls. Not for ANYTHING.doesnt come Bluetooth comparable with Chevymylink when my 7 pro WAS. Also, this is ipv water resistant. Audio is crackly after getting wet when my 7 didn't. All in all an extremely disappointing phone. Would have gotten the s24 when I was no longer a fan of Samsung.
