    Best phone

    Best phone ever!! I am very happy with this purchase, and the phone works quite well. The price is right and there was only a slight learning curve when coming from a Samsung phone. I know google has a spotted history when it comes to sale prices on their other models, so maybe the pricing will not be as strong a driver as the Pixel 7 pros and Pixel 8s go on sale, but I am very happy with this budget model. The battery life last multiple days between charges for me, or for the entire day with heavy youtube usage. It can get slightly warm at times, but no warmer than my S9+ under heavy usage, so I am not concerned. Charge times are reasonable, but I am coming from an older phone, so maybe I am just easily impressed. The finger print scanner works great for me, and when used in conjunction with the face recognition, is pretty seamless. Overall, I am very happy with this phone, and will consider the Pixel phone family moving forward.

    Pros: Competitively Priced: The phone offers a compelling set of features at a competitive price point, providing value for money. Advanced AI Features: The incorporation of advanced artificial intelligence features enhances the user experience, contributing to the phone's overall performance. Terrific Cameras: The camera system on this mobile model is exceptional, delivering high-quality photos and possibly innovative features powered by AI. Compact: The phone's compact design makes it convenient for one-handed use and easy portability, catering to users who prefer smaller form factors. Excellent Build Quality: The build quality is commendable, ensuring durability and a premium feel in hand. Cons: Unimpressive Battery Life: One notable drawback is the phone's battery life, which falls short of expectations. Users may find themselves needing to recharge more frequently. No Telephoto Camera: The absence of a telephoto camera limits the phone's versatility in photography, especially for zoomed-in shots. Storage Capped at 256GB: While 256GB of storage is substantial, the limitation may be a downside for users who require extensive storage for media, apps, and files.

    It’s a great compact phone. Not the fastest processor but haven’t experienced major issues yet but there will be some frame drops in some instances. The design and screen are basically perfect. Would’ve liked it more if they didn’t software lock features from the Pro phone with the same hardware. The iPhone definitely has the Pixel beat in cameras for a couple of years now and this year isn’t changing that either.

    Being an iPhone user since iPhone 4, I never thought I would move to Android, but Pixel changed that belief. It's really a intelligent phone. Call screening feature is one of my most used in this device. Camera is also excellent. If you want an intelligent phone with best in class camera and not crazy high prices, Pixel lineup is the way to go! Plus the battery life is great. With iPhone, I had to carry my charger everywhere I go, now sometimes I forget where I left my charger.. LOL!

    Had the Google pixel 8 since it's releasing and so far so good. It's fast, responsive and some issues such as over heating has not been an issue for me. It's a no thrills phone that is small/compact and l like that there's also no bloat ware. Camera and taking pics is clean but I'm not a photographer so really can't comment compared to other phones.

    This mobile phone is the best you can buy at this price. It has a beautiful design and is packed with AI features that are actually useful in real life. The camera is excellent, as usual for Pixel phones, and the battery life is great, lasting for up to 1.5 days with moderate to heavy use. Overall, this is a great phone with exceptional value for money.

    Pretty small and compact device. It fits my hand perfectly, and the performance is smooth with the camera being easily the flagship aspect of this device. The long software support keeps me assured that this device is a long term investment that will only get better over time with feature drops. One complaint is that the phone can get a little hot sometimes.

    Using it for the last 4 months... One of the greatest phone that Google has ever introduced. Light weighted, powerful and great for pictures. Call screening is one of the best option that is really helpful. Battery last for 20+ hrs for normal use and 8-10hrs for heavy usage

    The Pixel 8 Pro is so definitey a step in the right direction. As a lifelong HTC user, this is the only phone I have used that comes close tp the ingenuity of HTC. Camera and software are amazing. Screen is awesome, and it's fast, Great phone

    It just works. It's fast, good battery life, great camera, great integration of Google throughout. There's less customization and features than Samsung, so you might miss quite a few conveniences, but if you know that going in, you'll be fine.

    Pixel 8 sits comfortably in the "great, but not groundbreaking" territory. It doesn't scream for attention with flashy features, but it excels in the everyday: a fantastic camera, smooth performance, and long-lasting battery life

    Pixel 8 simply gets the job done.

    Pixel 8 is a great device that just checks the boxes. It isn't the most powerful or highest specs but it seems like Google is focused on the software experience which seems to be getting more refined with each model. The camera is solid, can appreciate the high refresh rate screen (that gets really bright when needed, hands down the most legible Pixel line up when outdoors to date). Google assistant is baked into this phone and there's little quality of life features that are neat like call screening and hold for me for spam or business calls. The battery is alright, at the time of my review I haven't had the device long enough to put it through it's paces but it seems like it'll get through an 8-10 hour day with moderate use, in my use case at least. In short, get the Pixel 8 but go into it with reasonable expectations. Google is claiming 7 years of support but time will tell if the hardware will last that long. It's a great well rounded device that simply gets the job done.

    Love the phone. Works great for small business/farming. Plenty of functionality and features and a good camera without being too large or bulky to fit in my pocket or the cupholder/compartments of the truck or tractor cab.

    Great phone experience, as usual with any Pixel. All the goodies from a Pixel such as excellent camera, clean android environment, etc. The only thing I criticize about new Pixel phones is their weight. Every upgrade feels like you are carrying a larger brick. Why can't Google consider lighter materials for their new phones? I miss the weight of Pixel 2, even Pixel 4a. This is something Apple and Samsung never neglect on.
