Google Pixel 8 / 8 Pro Review - Problems!

I know I've kept you waiting a long time for this (sorry!) We've spent a lot of time recently going back through all our processes, and improving each part of them. It's taken time, but you're gonna start to see: More thorough testing, editing that's less distracting and overly busy, more accurate colour grading, better quality audio across all videos etc etc etc - more to come 👀

I actually liked the "visor" on a Pixel, it gives the phone its own identity, and it makes it more recognizable. Everyone around you can tell that you're using a Pixel just by looking at the visor

Google's call monitoring is way underrated for spam callers! The integration of everything on the pixel from your bills to your calendar are awesome in the way they remind you and keep you on top of things

Allright! Three months are over, a big update is on the way. I am looking forward to seeing your take on it.

The production value of this channel is light-years ahead of where it used to be. Not everyone may notice these subtle details, but those who do will absolutely love them. Shout-out to Arun and the team!! <333

Id rather have a headphone jack then a temp sensor.

Thank you for the highly detailed review which I haven't saw anywhere else ..

I switched to 8 Pro from 4a 5G and it's a day and night difference. I really enjoy 8 Pro and all it's features Surprisingly, I found myself spending a lot of time generating AI wallpapers, specifically in "Painting" and "Textures" sections. First, I thought it was just a gimmick, but actually they look dope! 5x telephoto lens is very good. I compared it to my wife's 14 Pro and Pixels zoom is noticeably better, both in daytime and in night . I also used "Best take" feature for couple of my photos and it actually works well! I agree though that switching between lenses while shooting video is poor. That's my only complaint so far. Upd: since Google released Video boost feature I use it frequently. It really boosts the video when shot indoors in the dim lightning or at night. Basically, when the environment is challenging, Video boost is definitely a great option. I don't really care it has to be sent to Google's servers, although some people make a big deal out of it and want it to be processed locally on the phone.

This is the best review of the pixel 8/ pro I’ve seen so far. He went in depth on every aspect of the phone instead of just going through the features like a Google presentation.

The most issues I've ever had with my pixel 6 and 7 was it got a little warm and that's it . Software updates fixes most issues

Excellent review. I appreciate the content here. Has helped me decide greatly.

You absolutely make complicated tech information and details so easily consumable... I love your content!

I got the pixel 8 pro last Thursday, I had the Pixel 6 pro before. Battery, "smart features", smoothness and the camera got a lot better. But this stutter in the camera is freaking me out as well. I never really had a problem with heat unlike the pixel 6 even though I'm a pretty heavy user too because of my job. Signal was always great so far (T-Mobile/Germany). I don't regret going for a pixel phone again.

To think that Arun took time to find possible faults and still the phone blew it away shows how good the pixel this year is

Most in depth and relevant review out there!.. Thank you

Bro how do you get your head round all this tech lol, you're gifted. Thanks for this info.

I would like to say thank you Arrun and to your team for telling us not just about the older tech but the newer tech as well the attention to detail is amazing thank you to all who made these videos possible

I have just upgraded from the Google Pixel 6 to the Pixel 8 Pro and I’ve been so happy it a huge leap forward for me.

Reviews like this that go into such great details of almost every aspect of a new piece of tech out there are why I love watching Arun's videos. Good work, Arun! Keep it up.

This review really covers everything. Thank you
