What are the little things that these phones can do I mean I m using it from last 4 months and I even can't record calls 😅 there is no vibration for call connect disconnect etc, instagram quality for these lenses and selfie cam is just 😡😡😡😡😡 even google say we can use stock cam in social media apps like Snapchat insta wowwwww😂😂😂 and those Google photos ai features are just r.i.p they take a whole night to give output of night sight video boost 😂😂😂 nd all call related telecom related functions are just for u.s nd I m using this in India ..... extremely hot in summers like thermometer sensor at the back is another gimmick so what are the software functions that set them different from another OEMs nd pic quality is just shadow portraits edge detection face color is just hit and miss for sure so nothing much to say
Another thing if there is any way or solution to edit these HDR photos videos in Google photos app to get same exact HDR output after editing I mean on Instagram I can't upload HDR reels if I apply instagram trending audio to that HDR reel ??? How to edit these hdrs to export in HDR with some color editing
@@dirtytamato Why would you convince anyone to use some phone? I don't like iPhone because its a phone for snobs and it doesn't make much sense to use it if you don't have a Mac, iPod and other Apple products. I personally love the flexibility of Android. I recently bought a Pixel 8 (probably should've waited for the P9 but I'm impatient), I was torn between the Pixel 8 and 8a, S24, Xiaomi 14 and I'm delighted with the phone. It's a shame there isn't a P8 in the bay blue finish, which is beautiful.
Just got back into pixel after being on iPhone the last few years, I LOVED my 4 XL back in the day. Now playing, Material You, the pixel software, and obviously the camera really shows me what I missed for a handful of years.
For me absolutely not. Modem been fine and battery has been all day for me. Now modem issues depend on service and area with Pixels it seems. So that's a toss in the air but I'm in VA on T-Mobile and it's been solid.
Man you broke down the Pixel in a way ive never heard. Usually when people review pixel its based on hardware and benchmarks and all that. Really this is amazing thank you. Subscribed! You, Flossy Carter, and J Williams are my go to for Pixel from now on. Question tho, where did you get that matte glass from?
I love your Pixel videos because you are very informative and thorough with describing each feature on those devices. I’ve learned about many more features on a Pixel that top tech TH-camrs probably didn’t even know about. Meanwhile, I’m stuck on iOS over here wishing my phone would just autocorrect my texts and posts 😂. Great video!
I don't mind saying that Now playing is one of the two things that I really miss about not having a Pixel anymore. And I'm just like you, I'll be walking through a store or watching a movie and hear a song that just hits, and it's so nice to just be able to glance at my phone and see the song title and artist. And I don't understand why more people aren't talking about it and more OEMs aren't picking it up. It's just such a nice thing to have especially when music is such a big part of our lives. The other one I miss is the crash detection. I work swing shift so I start work at 4pm and don't get off until 1:30am or later. And I live in a rural area so if I crash at 2 in the morning it could be hours before anyone finds me. Long enough for me to die if I'm injured bad enough. And the thing is other than an iPhone if you're into android Pixel is the only OEM providing that feature. Just like their the only one with now playing. Both features that in my opinion everyone should have.
Yeah, you make a good point. It's a really good feature to have now Blaine as well as crash detection, especially working in an environment that you working in and being isolated from a population that can get a little scary because you write 2 hours and you can lose your life or you can get saved because of crash detection
@DalevonDigital honestly it's such a basic safety feature that every phone could have because they all already have the basic hardware that I truly don't understand why it's not universal. And Google has been providing it since at least 2019 so it's not new software. It's pretty sad actually when Apple brings a Google service to the iPhone before other Android OEMs😅
Being a google fan i wish you'd do more long term or revisit content on pixel 6 & 6pro along with the 7 &7pro. Love the content bro can't wait to see more.
Scheduling a SMS message is clutch. Sooooo many little features that a Pixel has is wonderful. One thing I use quite often that other phones don't do is copy paste from the multi window screen. Such a clutch feature.
Great video Dale on. I just switched to the 8 Pro about a month ago. And the overall experience is amazing, cameras are amazing, Now playing is great. It truly becomes a part of your life. It sure is a Life Style phone. And I'm finding it harder and harder to go back to my Galaxy S24 Ultra.
Pixel is the only phone that keeps me away from going back to an iPhone. Google is making it harder for users who love the Pixel experience to switch to another device.
I just picked up a pixel 8. I just like the size and I wish there was a 8 Pro level of features that would work for people like me who like a more compact form Factor! Love your videos Dalevon!
The Pixel 8 is the perfect size man. I just want the same camera as the Pro in the 8 and I would rather get that one. And I appreciate you watching Sam. ✊🏾
You make a lot of valid points. Talking about Google pixel which is a lifestyle phone and I definitely would have to agree with you on that. A lot of people don't quite understand that the pixel phones is a phone that helps me and my fam get through the day without any hesitation. I basically control my whole life hands-free and that's what people don't quite understand why I love the pixel phones. But off topic I love using the magic compose option everyday and daily but I have the magic compose with the pencil. When did you get the magical compose that can automatically respond back to your messages? In the beginning I had it for about 8-9 months and all the sudden it went away and then I got the magic compose with the pencil. I wonder when that feature that particular magic compose would come back to my phone. But keep up the good work man. Love your content brother ✨💪🏾
Thank homie. Finally someone who gets it. This is why I love and use the Pixel. Everyone else want it to become some powerful gaming phone or hit benchmark numbers like the iPhone and etc etc But the people was built to be a tool that fits into your daily life and not your entertainment life. Thanks for watching bro
@@DalevonDigital you honestly helped me make my choice to switch to Pixel 8 Pro after being with Apple forever. You made the Pixel fun and approachable and the transition over to it really easy! Thank you so much!
There is nothing apart from Samsung chipset which needed to be changed in the pixel, I think the display the design and everything else pixel does it better
In a weird way it's like Google is trying to be like Apple. Remember back in the day when people were complaining about Apples hardware choices (amount of RAM comes to mind) on their iPhones? This is where Google is right now. Tensor isn't a top shelf SoC but it doesn't matter because during "regular" use it just works fine. I really think that as soon as Tensor evolves into a flagship SoC, the Pixel will rise to be the top of the Android experience. It's kinda scary how good Pixels are even with the processor disadvantages they have...
I don't think I've ever met a bigger Google pixel Fanboy than myself but bro, I have finally met my match lol😂. Ever since the Nexus 6p I have added every pixel as well as every flagship from iPhones, every single note and Galaxy s device up until the s24 ultra and I have always returned to the pixel. It's not just for the camera anymore, the features that I miss that seems so basic but detrimental to my everyday lifestyle or too much to give up.
😂😆😂 I fell in love with the Pixels when they dropped the 6 series. After that I never looked at any other phones the Pixel Experience is just another monster by itself. Thanks for watching bro.
I like the search but an option to remove would be nice. And I haven’t had issue with subscribing to the betas ever. Pretty simple process and worked great
I've been a Pixel fan/user since the 3aXL and I agree Google is a lifestyle brand. For us that buy phones at full retail and use them on prepaid services. There's almost no other phone that matches what Google Pixel can provide for the average user.
I am planning to buy the Pixel 8 Pro but read that it doesn’t have a good battery life. At the moment I have IPhone 13 Pro Max. Is it worth buying as I need a good camera phone.
Thanks appreciate the sub. I think both devices are excellent it really comes down to software and maybe what features you need the most or want. I prefer the Pixel for the software and camera. I love Samsung Hardware and feature set and the S-Pen
Using p8p since a week *Pixel 8pro slow-motion video quality has suddenly became blurry! *Gets overheated even during normal use *Low light photos r extremely nosiy after camera software update (what can be the issue?) *There were constant horizontal glare lines When using 5x zoom while capturing pic/video at night..
As a music lover Now Playing feature is a bless specially the playing History it is well perceived from Google, I used to suffer checking on music I forget to download and check titles, but now on my Pixel I am really confortable I let him listen all day long when I get to bed I go to now playing checking the list in order and download 🥰🥰🥰 godamn Google nailed it on this one , I even show off with this feature to my Galaxies and iPhones friends when they want to check on a title I tell'em what it is before they unlock their phones 😂 and the jealousy starts hhhhh
@@KirbyKlein6 I think it's a generational thing, Im an older Millenial and I don't know anybody in my immediate circle that talks to their voice assistants, or that have voice assitant integration with their home furrniture and appliances.
They need to fix that front camera. Video calls are straight garbage and have been since the pixel 6. No improvement at all. Hardware on pixels is just too cheap.
The Google phone is all about the experience, once you start using it, the little things that these phones do are incomparable.
Yep 100% brother

Yes those are some things that keeps me on the Pixel. What’s Pixel did you get?
@@DalevonDigital I got the 8 pro, love the phone so far!
Awesome choice best Pixel to make your return.
Any issues with modem and battery life? That's the only thing keeping me from pulling the trigger

Nice video, truly outlined what type of experience you can have. Never heard of the at a glance feature though ?
Thank you! I appreciate you watching. Yeah at a glance is a really cool feature. It's kind of built into the launcher
@@DalevonDigital Gotcha ... I use Nova Launcher for my Pixel 7 Pro
I love pixel’s UI and exclusives but I also love Samsung hardware. Wish I could take pixel’s brains and put it in my 23 Ultra 😂
Just get the s24 that’s basically what happened
I said the same thing. I want Pixel Software and Samsung Hardware. Big win.
There is nothing apart from Samsung chipset which needed to be changed in the pixel, I think the display the design and everything else pixel does it better
I mean you make a fair point. The Pixel 8 Pro does feel like a solid upgrade and I really have no complaints this time around.
@@yatishsharma8632that cheap feeling hollow screen is not cutting it on the pixel. Their hardware is way too cheap
