The 8 pro looks more true to life though. How it looks in person ishow it looks inthe pro photos. The 8 is adding contrast. The pro also offers manual focus.
I actually use the 5X Digital Zoom on the Pixel 8 and it gives excellent results to the point where it could be compared to the same results from the 5X lens on the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which made me feel that 5X lens has no benefit other than giving Some depth in portraits only.
That was a very good video. To be honest, most of the time I didn't see a difference and where I did see a difference, I even found the Pixel 8 a little nicer, just pay an extra €300 because of the zoom and night videos? No thanks! The normal one is enough for me to photograph my cat. Thank you for everything.
the difference is really in the ultrawide and zoom and that's basically it. The selfie camera o nthe Pro has autofocus, but I didn't notice a difference there at all.
It's terrible they don't make a smaller phone with the Pixel 8 Pro camera setup. I know so so many people who want a premium cam setup with a zoom/telephoto lens on a smaller phone like the iPhone 15Pro and S23.
My thoughts exactly! I ordered the 8 Pro but not sure if I'll be able to live with the size and weight for the sake of the zoom. Also a ridiculously good pre order offer made the Pro cheaper than the 8, so I thought why not. Worst case I'll have to sell it and end up getting the 8 or even iPhone 15 Pro for the size
@@narcyzascvierch8309 you're right, just 1 year too late. Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi and more all had flat sides last year, Google was just playing catch up 😅
Thank you for the video. It was the comparison I was looking for and yeah like many others here I’m totally bummed that the eight doesn’t get better extra wide and the telephone photo lens. Last year I bought the seven Pro and had it for a while but I just it was just too big. I am on my feet all day at work and then I’m a runner and so the seven pro just it was like carrying a weight so I got the eight this time but I’m bummed about the, lack of all the lenses on the eighth versus the pro
It's certainly consistent, I'd love if you could show a post digital zoom for the 8 to match the 8 pro, see if those 50mp can resolve the detail of the 5x telephoto zoom, maybe it might do well with 3.5x? Who knows. Anyways, great vids as always, I don't often comment but rest assure I watch most of your content. Smartphones kinda lost it's allure a few years ago for me, now photo quality doesn't matter as much to me as it did before, they all take great photos! I went from a OP6 to a Pixel 6A and tbh, I much prefer the color rendition and portrait mode from my 6. I got a Ricoh GR3 and that is an awesome aps-c pocket cam, so that does most of the heavy lifting for me, anyways, just letting you know where I'm at heh, gauge your audience and all. Anyways! Keep up the great work.
Thanks for tuning in and the comment. If oyu're on a Pixel 6a, you'll be in for a nice surprise once you update to a newer phone when it comes to camera performance.
Estoy tan acostumbrado a ver tus vídeos y lo bien qué lo haces en respecto a las comparaciones; que me e olvidado que no entiendo tu idioma jajajaja Asta ahora es qué me pongo a pensar eso 😅 Saludos, me encantan estos vs que haces. Pixel 7 vs pixel 8 💥
imo, they should have had the 8 with the telephoto (even a 3x could be fine) at $699 and call it the 8 Plus at $899, as is. or maybe do a regular line and Pro line like iPhone (which Samsung should also do, imo). I'm over companies keeping the best specs for the big phones. Out of the big 3 in the US, I don't get why Apple is the only one to offer a small Pro model.
I dont speak English so dont be rude with my bad English in the comment, the pixel 8 and 8 pro it's the best camera in smarthphone for the moments, i liked so much this review man, very good job. Thanks for giving us a great camera test of two amazing smarthphones. I want a Pixel 8 or 8 pro, i can see what is the same camera, the only change between one and another is the x5 optical telephoto
Can't put my finger (eye?) on it, the shadows look ever so slightly more pronounced and pleasing on the smaller Pixel 8. Wish OEMs would leave the shadows and grain alone in the smartphone photography. Not a huge fan of the agressive HDR approach this year..
thank you for doing the important camera comparisons. most people already know which company they want to buy. but some of us want to know if its worth the upgrade to the higher end model or the base model.
Another great video, I w2ould save my money and go with the regular 8, I would miss the tele photo, but the price is just too steep, they are competing with apple and hurt them themselves.
Why nobody test shooting moving objects, kids playing, running, dogs running. I need these tests, because this will be my most of time photoobjects and main reason to buy a new phone 😢
As someone who desperately wanted telephoto but also only does small phones, I had to skip telephoto to keep the form factor. I wish they did both the normal and pro in both mini and XL versions to appease both camps.
For me, the Pixel 8 Pro cameras are not worth the 300 eur price tag difference from the vanilla 8 model. The 12mp ultrawide is almost on-par with the 48mp in almost every situation. I do prefer the small for factor for point and shoot, though...
I thought the same thing glad to hear it wasn’t my imagination but I started stopping each time the front camera was shown on screen and I think the eight did a better job than pro with the selfie camera
Sir please help me in choosing between pixel 8 and iPhone 15 plus I'm getting both at around same pricing. Also I have heard that pixel 8 battery drains fast even at the minimal usage. How is the battery life ? Pls help Thanks
The Pro selfie is washed out compared to the regular pixel. Could probably be fixed with software update. 48mp vs 12mp - no difference in detail or quality that I can see (viewing in 4k on 27" monitor) Extra £300 for telephoto - not for me Great comparison!
Both phones need fine tuning for selfies (photos and video). The main cameras are the same, the results aren't, the Pro is slightly better. The ultra wide on the Pro is far better. And there is the 5x zoom on the Pro. So I prefer the Pro for my money. For a smaller (and cheaper) phone, the Galaxy S23 may be a better choice. A comparison between the regular Pixel 8 and the Galaxy S23 could be interesting.
On the main camera the pro seemed to over-expose a little. Then again he could take ten shots on one camera of the same scene and get slightly different results/ exposures
If your video is accurate (and I have difficulty believing it is) then for photos the Pixel Pro is superior and yet for video I prefer the image quality on the 8. I cannot comprehend this. I would think better photos would translate to better video as well....Odd
Para mi es empate porque el google pixel 8 pro tiene mas zoom y el Google pixel 8 no pero tiene estabilidad en video y en noche es lo mismo y en unas partes el 8 capta lo que hay en las sombras no se ustedes pero prefiero el GOOGLE PIXEL 8
I would choose the pixel 8 pro despite the fact that the 2X digital zoom Look worse than the regular pixel 8 in some night condition. We can see it at 10:03 and at 12:20. The 2X of the pro looks more blurred than the regular pixel.
I too wish google would make a mini pro. I have thought this for years. Clearly google is to myopic to see what the public wants. I think if they had a mini pro it would sell out.
This is one of the best camera comparisons on youtube. Thanks a lot! But please add a few more landscape photos in your next reviews, the green tones are very important for landscape and nature photographers and there you immediately see if a phone is good for that. (Samsung for example sucks because the photos are oversaturated and the green looks fake)
Pixel 8 selfie is absolutely shit because no autofocus. If your video calling or taking selfies anything less than a foot or foot and a half away from your face looks shit. It's a blurry mess
Pixel 8. Many photos looked better than the 8 Pro to me.
for me too.
The 8 pro looks more true to life though. How it looks in person ishow it looks inthe pro photos. The 8 is adding contrast. The pro also offers manual focus.
Nah
I thought it was just me felt so 😂
Would be better if you could show how the Pixel 8's 5x digital zoom compares against the 5x telephoto lens of the Pro.
I actually use the 5X Digital Zoom on the Pixel 8 and it gives excellent results to the point where it could be compared to the same results from the 5X lens on the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which made me feel that 5X lens has no benefit other than giving Some depth in portraits only.
Why did some of the regular 8 photos look ever so slightly cleaner than pro's one on the main sensor?
Both phones did great when it comes to photos. The video quality has improved. The base model did great. Really not any big differences
Why didn't you test the Pixel 8 digital 5x? I also missed the comparison of macro photos
That was a very good video. To be honest, most of the time I didn't see a difference and where I did see a difference, I even found the Pixel 8 a little nicer, just pay an extra €300 because of the zoom and night videos?

You should have shown a 5x shot on the 8 just for comparison

I always turn the shadow slider down on my pixel , otherwise photos look washed and over-exposed

Hoping for that 'Google Pixel 10 Mini Pro' with 8x tele :D
I gave you a like, especially because of your comments about the telephoto on the smaller device!
Would love to see 8 vs 7 base model, I don't think it's much improved
The main camera certainly is, but the ultrawide and selfie cameras are the same.
@@phandroid I appreciate your reply
The 8 now has macro on the ultrawide ☺️
r Hello, what color do you recommend, porcelain or blue please?
@@phandroidHello, what color do you recommend, porcelain or blue please?

It is something that the mass people want
Where's this video been shot,the city is beautiful ❤️
Please make comparison of Sony Xperia V5 vs Google pixel 8. Thanks
Why nobody test shooting moving objects, kids playing, running, dogs running. I need these tests, because this will be my most of time photoobjects and main reason to buy a new phone 😢
I love my pixel 8 waiting on the 9 to drop. I only like the smaller sizes
As someone who desperately wanted telephoto but also only does small phones, I had to skip telephoto to keep the form factor. I wish they did both the normal and pro in both mini and XL versions to appease both camps.
The Pixel 8 Pro has this magenta hue to all of its photos. Looks like in video too.
Other than the Telephoto lens honestly the Pixel 8 looked more sharp to me.
I had both phones and agree. the 8 just took sharper pics even though the pro supposedly has a better lens,
For me, the Pixel 8 Pro cameras are not worth the 300 eur price tag difference from the vanilla 8 model. The 12mp ultrawide is almost on-par with the 48mp in almost every situation. I do prefer the small for factor for point and shoot, though...
Am I the only one to notice that front camera on the regular 8 is actually better than pro.?
I noticed that too ☺️
I thought the same thing glad to hear it wasn’t my imagination but I started stopping each time the front camera was shown on screen and I think the eight did a better job than pro with the selfie camera
The Pixel 8 Pro ultra wide is an absolute knock out. Clear difference here imo. So frustrating its not on the smaller 8.
Will you do a magic editor test video?
doesnt the pixel 8 have a 8x zoom capability?
Meine question is is the regular version has autofocus in wide angle lens ?
Sir please help me in choosing between pixel 8 and iPhone 15 plus
I'm getting both at around same pricing.
Also I have heard that pixel 8 battery drains fast even at the minimal usage.
How is the battery life ?
Pls help
Thanks
The 8 seems better in my opinion. More detail
Please do binned and Full Res mode comparison, really want to see how P8 Pro performs with Full Res shot via all lenses.
Unfortunately, that's not somethign that I do with my camera comparisons. There are other channels that do.
How can do 50mp photos with mi Pixel 8? Only can do 12mp. The pro controls are only on the Pixel 8 pro...
The Pro selfie is washed out compared to the regular pixel. Could probably be fixed with software update. 48mp vs 12mp - no difference in detail or quality that I can see (viewing in 4k on 27" monitor)
Extra £300 for telephoto - not for me
Great comparison!
Do we have 0.5 zoom on selfie camera?
maybe a comparison between p6pro, p7pro and p8pro😄
Somehow Pixel 8 seems to me that has better photos...
P8P is definitely better on all fronts (day, night, video). But is it worth an extra $300? for my purposes, not really.
As always, thanx

I've got the S23. My old Pixel 7 absolutely smashes this camera from stills. It won't even be close with the Pixel 8.
The Pixel 8 versus Galaxy S23 comparison is in the works. Coming in a few days.
On the main camera the pro seemed to over-expose a little. Then again he could take ten shots on one camera of the same scene and get slightly different results/ exposures
