Unboxing Google's Pixel 8 Pro and regular flagship with a 1 week review of the camera tech, gaming performance, battery life and beyond. We tour the best new Android 14 features and compare the Pixel 8 Pro vs that compact Pixel 8, which costs £300 less in the UK!
As well as the obvious size difference, Google has packed quite a few extra features into the more premium phone. That camera hardware has been boosted with a telephoto lens as well as upgraded ultra-wide snapper. Plus the Pixel 8 Pro has full manual controls, and will enjoy a Video Boost tool later in 2023. Check out my Pixel 8 camera review for full testing!
Likewise, the larger smartphone offers up some bonuses like a temperature sensor - possibly the most random phone feature of the year? You have a bigger OLED screen, and more memory and storage options. However, both the Pixel 8 Pro and regular Pixel 8 deliver impressive battery life and respectable Genshin Impact gaming.
So which of these Google phones are you most tempted by? In the UK, the Pixel 8 Pro costs from £999, while the mini model is £699. That's quite a difference! My full review of both blowers is coming soon, and my tips and tricks and camera videos will land very soon.
