my 3 yr old pixel 5 started to split apart and its had other issues like volume problems and fingerprint sensor being inconsistent. plus battery life has dropped. Pixel 8 was in stock and easy to migrate to before I lost the display on the old phone. The pixel8 is slightly larger and heavier, but not huge. i value a smaller phone so that's why Went with the 8. camera and photo editing is great. I've used samsung but am happier with the google interface.

For the price it's the best phone you can buy. It's smooth, great camera and not a big phone. Also love the pink color.

Love this phone. I previously had a Pixel 5 and loved the size and shape. When I upgraded to the 7 it was good but too big and heavy and the fingerprint sensor sucked.
Now on the 8 the fingerprint sensor and face unlock are superior to the 7 for me. The 120hz and super bright display is awesome. The size and weight is very comparable to the Pixel 5 but now with the tensor G3 instead of the budget processor of the 5.
Overall very happy with the purchase and pre-order/trade in experience with Best buy.

The Google Pixel 8 in Obsidian is a photography powerhouse, boasting an impressive camera system that truly stands out. The primary 50MP wide-angle lens captures stunning detail and vibrant colors, providing a fantastic overall image quality. Google's renowned computational photography techniques enhance the shooting experience, ensuring sharpness and clarity even in challenging lighting conditions. The inclusion of Night Sight and Astrophotography modes further solidify its low-light capabilities, allowing users to capture breathtaking shots in various settings.
In addition to its primary lens, the Pixel 8 features a 12MP ultra-wide lens that expands the creative possibilities. This lens excels in capturing expansive landscapes or fitting more subjects into the frame, making it an ideal choice for group shots or architectural photography. The ultra-wide lens maintains excellent color accuracy and detail, delivering a consistent and cohesive visual experience across different shooting scenarios.
For selfie enthusiasts, the Pixel 8's 12MP front-facing camera is a standout feature. Equipped with advanced facial recognition and portrait mode capabilities, it ensures that your self-portraits are not only sharp but also beautifully composed. The front camera's ability to create natural bokeh effects adds a professional touch to selfies, making the Pixel 8 a top contender for those who prioritize high-quality front-facing camera performance. Overall, the Google Pixel 8's camera system is a comprehensive package, delivering exceptional versatility and image quality for both amateur and professional photographers alike.

I've been on an annual Pixel upgrade since they introduced wireless charging into the Nexus/Pixel lineup. I upgraded to the Pixel 8 from the Pixel 7 and am extremelly happy. Everything works perfect for me and it is a pleasant upgrade.
I am not a power user so I get plenty of battery life, the underscreen fingerprint sensor works great for me, and the improved facial ID is great. Not to mention, the size is perfect! I dont like big phones, so the non-pro Pixels are my go-to.

Ive been looking for a new phone for a while since I was still rocking with my S9+ and the Pixel always interested me. When I tell you that this Pixel 8 is such a fantastic phone, I am underselling it. The software is amazing. The camera? Stop looking, this is the best out there for the price.
I love the AI and all the small features that you would sometimes glance over.
If you are looking for a new phone, this is it. No discussion.

I bought this phone for a good very good price. For sure I recommend this item. But if you can find it on disccount it would be much better. It has a nice display, nice performance. Maybe the only thing that I don't like is selfie camera

Google Pixel 8 is a slick phone

This phone is slick...both figuratively and literally.
- Been using the Pixel 8 phone for 4 weeks
- The glass back makes the phone smooth and slippery as ice. On the first day I intercepted it starting to glide toward the edge of a table top and again on a fabric sofa arm. Putting a phone case on it has greatly reduced the slippery issue.
- Google's commitment to provide Android and security updates through October 2030 drove the decision to buy the 8 vs the less expensive 7a.
- More metal & glass in the 8 vs more plastic in the 7a also influenced the decision.
- Migration from the old Pixel 3aXL was slick as well. Connected the new phone to the old with the 8's USB-C x USB-C charging cable, followed a few prompts and the migration took a little over a half hour.
- I opted to skip copying 1,000+ pictures from the old phone or it would have taken much longer
- In hindsight, it would have been prudent to fully charge the batteries on both phones, and turn the screen brightness down. The old phone's battery was at 67% when I started. When the migration finished it was down to 8%.
- All apps, contacts, WiFi connection details successfully set up on the new phone.
- The macro photo feature seems to work well
- So far I am pleased with the Pixel 8

First time pixel user. I really like how easy it was to transfer over apps and data from previous android phone. Size is just right to do one hand texting. Is a lot less "clunky" compared to previous android phone in that it works well with android auto and have not had any growing pains as I did with my old phone. The only thing I dislike is that the battery life is not great. I still get through the day but have noticed that the battery drains quickly with just surfing the web or streaming videos on YouTube.

The best feature is the AI-Powered Camera that always enhanced the experience of capturing the moment. The design itself is standalone, which make it unique from other phones. It is definitely worth the money I spent and perfect gift for my wife.
