In my Google Pixel 8 Pro review, I reveal my full thoughts on Google’s latest flagship smartphone. What’s the new camera system like? Are the AI features gimmicky or genuinely useful? Is it better than the iPhone 15 Pro Max? I answer everything in this video! Oh, and this entire video is shot (pretty much) on the Pixel 8 Pro!

What AI feature do you want to see next on the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro?
I love mine and if you use during day or night 50mp max resolution even at 10x zoom it is fantastic detail. At 50mp resolution it doesn't even affect dynamic range either
Did you use Best take with Eddie the 🐕 dog…or does it just do humans.😮
Casting/Mirror Casting is not working on Pixel 8 Pro on non google devices such as FireStick or Roku
I just love your style and honesty. Top notch 👍
Very nice video
What is the iPad case you're using at 2:38?
No reviewer ever talks about call quality and yet my Samsung S22 plus has, well known, inconsistent call quality and the Pixel may not have that problem. Not everyone owns a phone to take selfies for social media.
Need Pixel 8 pro vs S23 Ultra comparison!
Can it record bluetooth audio while using the front facing camera?
8:05 – birds are not twitting anymore, they are X-ing😅
My pixel 8 pro heats after 5 minutes with any app
Another brilliant review Mark!
I have to disagree, the chunky camera housing makes this phone the ugliest on the market, but I guess I’m missing the point, It’s all about the software. Don’t get me wrong, I think the camera housing on iPhones now are too bulky as well, but at least not as ugly as Googles.
That camera pan is STILL jerky, though. They need to get that together. Samsung killed that jerky video pan on the s22 series but ONLY in auto mode.
Just on the display , allegedly despite being nice and bright and colorful, according to another reviewer it is a peg below the displays on the galaxy and iPhone flagships if you want the the more expensive hdr displays for watching movies in maximum high color definition .
Probably won’t notice it in normal use I suspect, but you have to consider apples for apples when you call out one for being cheaper than another there is probably a a C reason.
In saying that I’m thinking of getting one as a second phone just for the AI stuff.
How the battery holding up?
Uhm. Video with the rear cameras stutter like crazy while moving
U can see it even your own shot samples. How could u say u would use this for b roll?? Maybe only when not moving..
Still no PAL settings in video. I also can't use the space saving option in Google One because the video files aren't recognised by my MacBook
Pixel 8pro is the worst piece of garbage I have ever owned ☠️
