The Pixel 8 Pro could be the most accomplished Android phone of a recent generation. But in everyday use there are some minor disconnects – from battery life to refresh rates owed to the new Tensor processor – that hold back on some of the magic (not Magic Eraser).

Promise of 7 years of security/software/features support, Gorgeous design that stands apart from competition, Varied camera setup that's great and easy to use, Smooth software experience

The Google Pixel 8 Pro is the best Pixel that Google has ever made, and it represents Google’s vision for the future of mobile technology, though that vision does seem a bit clouded and unfocused at times.

Great materials and matte finish refresh the Pixel design, Call screening is natural and very useful, Incredible seven-year commitment from Google for major updates

Android settings and features are confusing and hard to find, Some AI features feel a bit creepy and impersonal, Cameras don’t beat the iPhone 15 Pro without editing help

“Sugar, spice and everything nice” but the price. Despite being designed keeping in mind the masses to help them get the maximum out of their smartphone, the Google Pixel 8 Pro seems to lack certain things that will most likely not make it "the smartphone" for the masses.

Bursting with clever AI-infused software, the promise of software updates for many years to come and a camera and screen that thoroughly impress, the Google Pixel 8 Pro does a fantastic job at offering prospective buyers something a little different.

The bright, flat screen is stunning, Often incredible camera performance across all sensors and lenses, AI features offer unique software tricks, 7 years of updates

Uncomfortable to hold, Temperature sensor is pointless, Performance not as strong as similarly priced phones, Notable price increase over 7 Pro

Great cameras, front and back, Fast performance, Good battery life, Innovative safety features

Design too familiar, Some average features

The iPhone 14 isn’t much of an upgrade over the iPhone 13, but it’s still a great device and an upgrade for anyone coming from the iPhone 11 or older.
