    I initially found the Extra Dim feature to still be too bright for when I'm using my phone at night. If you long press the feature button it takes you to the settings where you can set the brightness even LOWER than the default setting Google sets it at -- it greatly improved my eye sensitivity in dark environments!

    Pixel UI might not be the UI with the most features like One UI, but this UI is damn responsive and featured with some cool stuff. Switched from using iPhones for years to a Pixel 6a and i freaking love it.
  • @franklyn_steinz
    This is why i always choose the Google Pixel as my main phone these little details and underrated features just makes the phone soo much more useful and smarter than an average smartphone that is even way more more expensive .Google just knows exactly how to pack everyday thoughtful feature into their devices while keeping the OS clean and fast
  • @MercMann
    This is one of the best channels that has the best professionally made content I have ever seen. Awesome work!
  • @wesharedesign
    OMG the color grading of your edit is, on point! loved it!!!!
  • @paschal4
    I have never seen a YouTuber that makes video as cool as this one, men that's a lot of hard work
  • @MrWarxhe
    Sam, your content is packed with richness. Very good!
  • @aliettienne2907
    The gestures customizable features is a must-have feature. I gotta watch this video again.
  • @John-oc1zr
    The Pixel UI and unique features are fantastic.
  • @Captain_Yossarian
    Tried using an ios device recently instead of Pixel. Realised how much I now use copy and paste from recent apps. It is such a great and useful thing.
  • Hi Sam. A while ago I stumbled across a video of how to hide apps on the stock Pixel Launcher without a thirdy party launcher, root, or fully disabling them. I vaguely recall it was something to do with an app cloner, or the privacy settings. Any ideas? Might make a cool video.
  • @champdancer19
    Thanks for the video. I plan to buy this phone now during black Friday.
  • @rotemeliaz
    Great vid! Quick question, though. What wallpaper did you use at the start of the "Cinematic Wallpapers" section?
  • @locus1222
    Im excited to try out the Pixel 8 pro and have all sorts of new OS features since it will be my first Pixel
  • @FLIM_gs
    Really hope that many of these features that are restricted to US-only also come to other countries soon!
  • @siddsach5567
    Great Video. Hope the other phone manufacturers include at least 50 % of these amazing Android features. Not sure if Google makes these Pixel only exclusive features.
