    With the way Pixel's camera bump is across the whole width of the phone and not just a square in the corner, this makes an awesome chance for phone case manufacturers to make a case that smoothens out the back, and then throw in a battery in the case itself, maybe upto 3000-4000mah battery.

      There needs to be some cryptological watermark standard that sets a flag as being the original image as-captured. You're never going to stop people from messing with photos, but for photos where you absolutely need to know what the original image was, there should be a way of knowing that.

So long as they don't remove all the "little" features and ways to customize it (including in the ways that most people don't need), I'm staying with Pixel. I wish dbrand had a ghost case for the non-pro pixels; I would actually get one.

    I just got my s23 ultra, and i love it so much. Had a pixle 7 pro, but batter life is what held it back.

    Thanks Marques. I really like your super concise and precise reviews. Those phone cases are awesome. Can we get access to them from here (Africa).

    I'd love to see the Pixel 8 series compared to the Pixel 6 series rather than last year's models. I think more people are going to be upgrading from the 6 than the 7, myself included (potentially).

      Idk, Best buy trade in for me is 265 after tax including pre order gifts. It's a fantastic deal (coming from 7 series)

      Most average users are on a 2 year upgrade cycle. Typed on my Pixel 6P

      Agreed. I'm considering replacing my 6 at the reduced pre-order price.

    Phenomenal video! Thanks!
    I've got a pixel 7, so I think I'm going to wait another year for the next iteration.
