Google Pixel 8 5G (8GB RAM, 128GB, Obsidian) - Brand New review

At the end of the day, the Pixel 8 is a really well-rounded phone. It has got almost all the bells and whistles you would expect from a ‘flagship’ phone – competent hardware, excellent cameras, and beautiful display – packed in a cute little shell.
Pros:
  • Ergonomic design (splendid display), Cameras are excellent as always, Clean software with a pinch of AI trickery (brownie points for 7 years of promised software support)
Cons:
  • Tensor G3 can run hot sometimes

Google Pixel 8 review: A better choice a year on

The Pixel 8’s price hike compared to the Pixel 7 has been reversed in the UK, making it a much better buy than at launch. With the Pixel 9 even more expensive, this older model is definitely worth Considering, especially with software updates continuing until 2030.
Pros:
  • Outstanding main camera, Impressive performance, Excellent Android 14 software, Six more years of updates
Cons:
  • Underwhelming battery life, Slow charging, No telephoto camera
