Customer Ratings & Reviews

No more comments are needed when its a phone from google. One of the best phones that too on a nice deal price.

GOOGLE is my favorite phone manufacturer ! And by far makes the best OS to me I love and plan to upgrade to the 9pro

Pixel 4a died. Insurance replacement was a moto stylus 5g, everything was adequate, loved the size. But the pixel 8 pro was 200 dollars more so got the pixel 8. Great price for a great phone, Got use to standard size and I'm loving everything about it!

Best deal on Best Buy. Google offers at $699. Steal deal at this price.

Good services provided by best buy , next time I will revisit

Great deal and great phone. Feels good in my hand. Love it so much.

This phone is overall a really good phone but there's 1 thing about it I don't like. 1st, it's kind of slow/laggy when tapping the screen. You have to tap the screen a few times for it to work. Everything else is great about this phone

I bought 2 pixel 8 phones. One was open box and the other was "brand new". Both feel alright, not cheap, but definitely not top of the line quality. I moved on from a pixel 5 and can definitely say the 5 felt more solid. Anyway, a week and a half in, the brand new phone started having touch screen issues during phone calls and then all the time. The open box phone seemed to be working better until about 2 weeks in and it felt slow as well. Traded both for pixel 9s. Pixel 9s feel fantastic, disappointed in quality of the 8s

Great one & easy to use in android with simple UI

Great camera for an older phone. Prefer this over an iphone

GOOD - Nice display with variable refresh rate - Special AI features for camera - No bloatware - Great options for importing data from other phones BAD - Still no micro SD slot - More expensive than last year TLDR The Pixel 8 is a little smaller than the Pixel 7, has a slightly better display and camera features, and costs $100 more. DETAILS The main benefit of the Pixel series of phones is what you don't get: bloatware and forced apps. Most other manufacturers tend to stuff some extra apps on the phone, many of which you can't remove. The Pixel thankfully doesn't do this. It also uses a normal Android UI and not some weird in-house overlay or change to the navigation. In comparison to the Pixel 7, the Pixel 8 doesn't change a whole lot. The body is a little smaller at 6.2" instead of 6.3". That makes it 5mm shorter and 3mm less side-to-side. I like this change because I thought the Pixel 7 was always at the edge of being too big to use with one hand. The corners are also a little more rounded than they were on the 7, something I don't like as much. The display has the same 2400x1080 resolution, but it now supports a variable 60 - 120 Hz refresh rate instead of the fixed 90hz on the Pixel 7. Most people probably won't notice the difference, honestly, though hopefully being able to use a slower refresh rate will help the battery go longer. A lot of people had complaints about the Pixel 7 battery life, but I wasn't one of them. I could easily get two, sometimes three days on a charge, and I can do the same with the 8. However, I don't use my phone every waking second of the day either, so perhaps my experience doesn't apply to a lot of people. Charging is still done over wired USB-C ( data connection, too ), and wireless charging is also still built-in. Pixels also make it easy for people to transition from other phones. If you're coming from a previous Pixel device, the two will automatically recognize each other when you power the new Pixel on and will ask to start the data transfer. The Pixel also has the option to import data and settings from your old phone over a direct wired connection. In the box is a USB-A to C adapter. You connect your old phone to its data cable, use the A-to-C adapter on the other end of the cable, and plug that into the Pixel. This even works with iPhones. While this grabs your contacts, calendars, mail accounts, Wi-Fi settings, and other things, it still doesn't import all system configuration settings. Even importing from a Pixel 7, I still had to go through system settings to change my display text size or reconfigure some apps. Google still refuses to put a micro SD slot on their phones. I guess they're still trying to force everyone to use their online storage so they have complete control over your data, same as Apple does. Also a bummer is the phone selling for $100 more than the Pixel 7 released at last year ( and still sells for ). Being able to get a flagship phone like the 7 for $600 when so many others were $800 and up was a great deal. Being $700 now is still less expensive than some alternatives, but it's certainly a damper on the value. For someone already on a Pixel 7, the 8 is a minimal upgrade and probably one you don't need, especially after only a year of use.

Bought this in an emergency to replace a pixel 7 pro with a cracked screen. Surprisingly it doesn't at all feel like a downgrade. No complaints about this phone at all, feels like a flagship device and runs like a champ.

Excellent phone. I got an open box at $500 from Best Buy. Working fine. Must check the phone and ensure all accessories before purchase. Smaller size compared to Pixel 8 pro/ 7 pro.

Finally a great phone in a small form factor. Fabulous color and fantastic software features.

Got this phone the day it was released. I traded in my iphone 13. Wanted something different. Love it so far and im glad my old airpods work with the phone. Picture quality is amazing. The phone doesn't feel too big or too small in your hand.

Bought this for my wife for christmas. She open and start love it! She have iphone before this but now she love this. She need specifically app that apple not have. Amazing phone! I not want review on battery life yet.

The phone is great. The only complaint I have is when you put a screen protector on the edges of the screen the phones struggles to track you pressing. There is a setting to help it but it doesn't do a lot.

Great phone with a great price. Would definitely buy it again.

Still learning some of the nuances of the Google pixel 8, but its a very intuitive phone. Easy to adapt to in my busy communications world!

Was time for a new phone. Last years Pixel at good discount.
