Google Pixel 8 Pro - Unlocked Android Smartphone with Telephoto Lens and Super Actua Display - 24-Hour Battery - Obsidian - 128 GB

March 2024 update: Most software kinks worked out at this point, phone still feels fantastic to use. Definitely not the best battery life or most efficient processor, however it's still very fast and usable for everything, gaming included. Cameras really are spectacular - everyone I talk to loves the pictures I take with this phone. Good image processing too. List of pixel exclusive features keeps growing, definitely worth it for those. Idk what other people are doing when they are having issues getting their carrier to register on their phone - for me it took about 5 seconds during the setup process after transferring my SIM from my pixel 6 to the 8 pro, and it was all set. Phone is less of a toaster than my pixel 6, better cameras, feels faster - ill get back to this in a moment - better screen, lots of really cool software features that are worth spending the time to learn about. Does it actually feel faster? 100% yes - however you should remember that this is a brand new phone, and depending on what data you transfer over, it's going to take some time to "relearn" or recache your habits and such, so certain things are gonna load a little slow at first, but speed up a lot over time - this is expected behavior. Also keep in mind since it's still new, there are some bugs here and there that software updates will work out over time. I noticed a couple, nothing that majorly impacts my usage though. Overall, fantastic phone, really easy setup - esp if you had a pixel prior - I really like the shade of blue they used as well for the pro, good case choice can compliment it quite nicely. I do kind of wish the titanium was less shiny, but its not a big deal for me.

OMG, the Pixel 8 Pro is, like, the coolest phone ever! 😍 I've had it for a few weeks now, and it's seriously lit. Here are some of the reasons why I'm totally loving it: Camera Game Strong 📸: The camera on this phone is next level. The pics I take with it are so clear and vibrant. Selfies, group pics, and even low-light shots look awesome. It's basically a mini photographer in my pocket. Speedy Gonzales ⚡: This phone is, like, super fast. Apps open in a snap, and I can play all my fave games without any lag. It's like having a little gaming console right in my hands. Gorgeous Display 📱: The screen is, like, amazing! It's big and bright, and watching videos or playing games is a total blast. The colors are so vibrant, and it's, like, perfect for binge-watching Netflix. Battery for Days 🕒: The battery life is, like, epic. I use my phone all day, and it still has juice left when I go to bed. No more worrying about it dying on me. 5G for Speed Freaks 📶: With 5G, I can, like, download stuff crazy fast and stream without any buffering. It's like the internet is on turbo mode. Android All the Way 🤖: I'm a big fan of Android, and this phone runs the latest version, so I get all the cool features and updates. Customization options are on fleek. Sleek Design 😎: The phone looks super sleek and modern. It's got a premium feel, and it's, like, total eye candy. Water-Resistant 💦: I'm not saying I've dropped it in the toilet, but if I did, it's nice to know it can handle a little splash. So, like, if you want a phone that's top-notch in pretty much everything, the Pixel 8 Pro is, like, totally the way to go. I'm in love with mine, and I'm pretty sure you will be too! 😄👍 #Pixel8ProRocks

Works well and I love the google AI that screens calls. It's very human sounding and works better than any other call screen service I have ever used. ****IMPORTANT NOTE**** Asurion is a scam. In my experience, If you ever have to file a claim they will make the process as difficult as possible. When you sign in to the app to file a claim you have to sign in three separate times. The form they want you to fill out does not self-populate your name, address, phone # etc. You’ll then need to enter various other information, and they want a pic of both the front and back of your driver’s license (remember, you logged in with a UN and PW). Once you upload all of this, they tell you it will take 24 business hours to review. First, they reject the form stating you must print and sign the form even though it says you can sign electronically. If you call their number, they will place your call on hold for a while and initially an automated message will attempt to tie up your call having you answer various questions. Eventually someone in a foreign country will answer your call. The initial person will try to sell you additional services and after you say no a couple times, they will transfer you to someone else. You guessed it, you will have to be on hold again. You will get transferred and placed on hold several more times and they will find a way to deny your claim. What is especially frustrating is you have followed all their directions along the way. They can (and will) raise service fees without any notice. In the end, you will not save any money and have spent far too much time submitting forms and talking to people that lie and misdirect you every step of the way. The company’s employees are dishonest and have no problem lying to you. You can give it a try if you want but you have been warned. Instead of paying their monthly fee dump the money in a savings account. Odds are you’ll be able to buy a new product that’s updated, and you will receive it in a couple of days instead of weeks later. Asurion Protection is a scam.

this phone isn't the best value for your money but if you do decide to drop the 1000$ on it, you won't regret it at all. the pixel takes some spectacular pictures which I couldn't recreate on any other device. the blue color on the back is beautiful and the matte glass feels amazing to touch, but I put a case on it anyway. the screen is very responsive, bright and high resolution, so there are no complaints there. my only issues with this phone is that for how expensive it is, it isn't as fast as the rest of the smartphones that came out with it, not to say that it's slow. the pixel is still very snappy and doesn't leave you waiting for anything or even feel like it's sluggish at all. it's just slightly behind, making it not the most suitable phone for super intense gaming or workloads, which is fine for most people. it's os is packed full of smart features that make life ever so slightly easier and remove extra steps that you mightve had to take on other devices. overall if you want a device that takes amazing pictures and that will fit into your life really easily, this is it in my opinion.

I upgraded from S22 ultra I feel this phone is smooth, camera is phenomenal and the HDR and night boost is amazing. It does take time to upload and process the videos but it's been great so far. The camera AI features are nice to have. Its hard to take good family pictures when going out sometimes so the face edit is neat , the only downside it works for 5 people at max. The AI size adjustments and moving stuff is nice but need to be precise so when moving objects, AI can properly fill the place behind it I've encountered some freezes at first but it stopped after the latest update. Battery is good, i never ran out of battery but i never tried going a full day out where i might need to charge, I also got a power bank that I can attach to the back of the phone with the magsafe case i got from dbrand , thats why i didn't complain about the battery. I only used the power bank when i forget to charge my phone at night. Screen brightness is really bright. At night it can be a flashbang if you're in your room with lights out, becareful of the auto brightness. AI features like summarize and call screening only works in the US? I ordered it to a frieght forwarder and shipped it overseas. The summarize and call screening doesnt work. Car keys and google VPN doesn't work either. Google gimini got introduced in a recent update, its the google version of chat GPT. It works well but sometimes it glitches out for example, I asked gimini " show me the bullet train ticket prices from tokyo to kyoto " . It showed me prices in JPY and I asked to convert to my local currency and he did, tried that again few days later and gmini apologize and said he can't do it. You can't have google assistant and gimini at the same time when using shortcuts or the " hey google " . Sometimes im driving and i want to play a certain song but then i remember i have the gimini enabled and not assistant so i can't tell him to play the song because gimini answers questions and tasks are assistant's job. One con that really annoys me is the Bluetooth. Its weird. When i connect the phone to my car, sometimes it doesn't play the audio or the lag between audio and video is big, never had that in my s22 ultra. Also when playing music , my car screen always shows the song duration and name when using the S22 but on the pixel , it only shows the song title and no duration. Also there is a lag when displaying the song title. There is one tiny thing that i really liked is gesture control. You can double tap the back side of the phone to take screenshot or do a specific task, really cool. And the song auto detection is always welcomed. I once was watching a movie at home , the character was in Cafe and the cafe had background music. The phone detected it and i was surprised. Thats is all what i can think of as of right now

I've had this phone for 12 months now, and I can finally say that I truly hate it. I tend to hold onto a phone for 5 years, coming to the Pixel 8 Pro from a Galaxy S9+. I'll be switching to an iPhone as soon as possible. The first major issue I had was upon opening it and starting it up. It took hours, and nothing happened. None of my apps transferred, nothing was downloaded, it was a mess. It took two or three calls with their online support to find that there was some sort of Google Play Store bug that locked me out of being able to install apps. After a few days of not being able to use the phone I was finally reinstalling apps one by one. The fingerprint reader is garbage. (Was garbage, now it's okay after a mid year update). I cannot open my phone with my fingerprint. The slightest change in the angle of my finger is completely unrecognized, meaning that I have to use the face unlock (impossible in low light settings) or the PIN. The gesture controls are truly terrible. The button use for pulling up the assistant is annoying as hell, and now after a November 2024 software update, I have an extremely annoying haptic response on touching the screen that can't be turned off. It's on EVERYTHING. Scroll up, down, tap, swipe, IT DOES NOT STOP. Even with the haptics turned off in the settings the annoying buzz persists. This has been the worst phone I've had in decades. Updated [12/31/24] - After some trouble shooting with the Pixel support team, it sounds like my phone doesn't work as it should. I have the correct settings to disable haptics, but the annoying buzz persists intermittently when scrolling with apps, taping, swiping, typing, etc. I switched to the Pixel 8 Pro from Samsung, because I was tired of the required Samsung bloatware and getting ads in apps. This phone has been the most disappointing phone I've ever owned. It does the difficult things really well, but the basic thing like user interface, experience, and general usage; very poorly. Thank you to the Pixel Support team for helping me look into the issues with the phone. They've offered me the "Standard Exchange" option where I can mail them my phone, and be without one for a few days, they'll take a look at it, and mail a replacement. The whole process could take 5-14 days... OR, I can just go get an iPhone, and be done with this thing. Verizon, I'll see you Saturday.

I've had this phone for 4 months now! Here are some things I LOVE: •Takes GORGEOUS photos • It's very fast • It has a long lasting battery and charges within an hour • The neutral yet sophisticated color of this phone. I put a clear case on it to show it off. • Unlocked - it was a breeze to set up with my existing carrier • Brightness has a wide range which is great for being outside in the sun and in bed with the lights off • Android has a seemingly unlimited number of customization features which I always am excited for Cons: • This thing is massive and kind of heavy - just something to think about • The camera sticks out a bit so the phone never lays flat on its back, only if you lay it screen side down • There is no double-tap to wake or turn off the screen - this is something I miss about my old phone Overall, it really is the best phone I've ever had - no regrets!!

I really like just about everything about this phone. The screen is large and high resolution with a sharp image. It takes great pictures and has more options than I need. Being a Pixel, it always gets the latest Android version and doesn't have extra bloatware. I love using Google Lens on it to translate foreign language text. It can cast the screen to any device that supports it, and likewise for playing music. The processor is powerful enough to run graphics-intensive games, but it gets quite warm in the process. The only issue I've run into is when I tried to connect an external monitor via USB-C, it only worked in screen copy mode and not desktop mode like you can on a Samsung device (using DeX). Android 15 has it partly implemented, so I'm hoping it will be fixed in the next update.

Llevo varios meses con el teléfono. Había comprado uno renewed(? Pero la pantalla se veía borrosa y me daba dolor de cabeza. Compré uno nuevo. No sabría decir qué tan mal corre juegos porque solo lo he usado en dos juegos casuales, y todo ok. Brillo, funcionalidad, bocina, cámara todo ok. Estoy con pixel desde mmm el 4, luego 6 ahora el 8 pro. Todos los XL. Trae actualizaciones El porcela es muy bonito. Todos me lo piden ver, ya que no es muy común en México. CONTRAS: la pantalla es sumamente delicada. Al cabo de dos semanas ya tenía rayones, de qué? Ni idea. También de repente se corta un poco la música en el android auto, cada vez es menos. Antes era muy notorio, sobre todo porque conduzco distancias cortas. Es curioso que cuando me conecto a Amazon lo registre como un android genérico. ????? Y, unas 4 veces me ha tocado que hace un ruido raro, como interferencia al hacer clic en me gusta o en comentarios de Facebook e instagram. De memoria está ok, apenas me alcanza porque descargo mucho mugrero que luego quito y así. La vdd estoy contenta con la compra, sí lo recomiendo. Es bonito y funciona bien. La cámara es muy linda. El zoom es increíble Solo extraño mi pantalla con bordes curvos 🥲 pero vale la pena. El 6 me dio muchos problemas. Supongo que mala suerte, el 4 jaló muy bien. 🫶🏻

وصل بحالة ممتازة و كما هو مكتوب و يعمل بشكل كامل

Google perfect with vanilla android & features but built and hardware not that good but standard not lasting for long although updates for the device will 7 years. Camera on Pro models are from another planet can not be compared with today flagship
