Luxe Feel with Pro Camera
on January 28, 2024
Posted by: amcounasse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Influenster and Google in exchange for my honest review. The Google Pixel 8 Pro is a beautiful phone. It looks and feels luxurious. The porcelain color is a subtle blushed beige, like champagne or bisque. The phone also has a slight weight to it from the camera and would benefit from a case with a grip or wrist lanyard.
My most recent personal cell phone was an iPhone 11 from 2019. I complained frequently that the camera was grainy and didn't zoom as far as I'd like. Having seen a variety of advertising about the new camera and photo editing features in the Google Pixel 8 Pro, I was interested in trying a different phone/camera platform. Wow, the Google Pixel 8 Pro camera system is a definite upgrade.
As a convert to Android, I have found the setup and learning curve to be pretty straightforward. My most frequently used app is the camera, and I've experimented with taking photos at a distance, in macro mode, and at 50MP resolution instead of the standard 12MP. I can't believe how great the images are, with exceptional zoom and quality.
The one thing I wish was that there was a different way to access the photo settings on the fly. Instead of accessing features from the screen, you choose the camera settings from a settings list found under a gear icon.
Overall, I found the Google Pixel 8 Pro performs well and carries out tasks easily and quickly. I have not noticed any problems and am happy to experiment with this phone–especially as a new digital photography tool.
Photo examples include a heron, macro photo of a battery that was too difficult to read even with a magnifying glass, and flowers.

Such a fun phone to use
on January 30, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an avid Google pixel user I was excited to try the pro version. This isn't a huge difference from the Google Pixel 7 but there are some notable differences that make this a fun phone to use.
The new Android 13 runs so smoothly and offers almost a seamless Android experience really delivering on the speed and ease of use I have come to expect from the Pixel. I can get about a full day of normal usage on a freshly charged battery.
The stand out feature for me is the camera 😍 48 megapixel with a 23 mega pixel ultra wide camera makes your scenic and nature shots pop. The zoom capabilities are amazing, I'm excited to see what it can do with an additional aftermarket zoom lens. Macro mode was fun to use and I was able to get some pretty cool pictures. Night mode isn't great but it works 😀 the new selfie features are spot on and allow so much after photo clean ups, especially guided frame and unblur
Overall you cannot go wrong with this phone.... Like at all. I am constantly learning new things and tricks after a month of use.

OVERALL FANTASTIC PHONE!
on February 29, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Went from using an iPhone to using this wonderful device. If you are wondering if you should, DO IT! The usage for office files and other files are not as restricted as the IOS system. I posted a time lapse video showcasing the 4K camera which also has AI capabilities. This phone is a breath of fresh air after an iPhone.

Great Camera
on February 29, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Google has outdone themselves with the Pixel 8 Pro, from the camera to the AI features this phone is AMAZING. Coming from an Apple user, the Pixel was super easy to set up and transfer my information over to. The camera takes AMAZING photos. The adaptive feature with the battery is great to make sure you’re not over charging the battery. The pixel also comes with a variety of wallpapers that makes customizing the phone fun.

Smooth display also caught me off guard! Battery can also last for like 3 days with normal usage. Overall, i like this phone a lot.

A great phone!
on March 1, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I want to start this review off by saying I have an iPhone and all Apple products. With that being said this is a great phone. The camera is much better than my iPhone 14 Pro. It’s more crisp and clean, which I’ve found most Android and Google phones do have better picture and video quality. I also do social media for a living so I compared videos side by side from each other the phones and there was no competition. It’s an amazing phone but would I switch from my iPhone? No I wouldn’t only because everything I own is Apple so the ease of using all Apple products together outweighs how good this phone is. But if you’re an android user or don’t have any other Apple products absolutely give this phone a try. As an iPhone user I’ve had to use my husbands android phone and find it very had to navigate this one I found to be very easy to use, it does take some getting used to but it’s more similar to an iPhone than an android is.

Great quality phone
on March 1, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the Pixel 8 Pro made by Google for free from Influenster in exchange for my honest opinion. I am an iPhone user so I was a bit hesitant, but overall the phone quality is amazing & the camera on the Pixel 8 pro is actually better than the iPhone camera! The weight of the phone is very similar to most smart phones, however the screen on the Pixel 8 pro (6.7”) is actually larger than my iPhone 13 Pro. The appearance of the phone is very sleek and slender making it easy to slip in and out of your pocket or a purse! The battery life seems to last me about 10 hours, which is me actively being on the phone - listening to music, taking a phone call, searching the web, being on social media, etc. Included with the phone is a charging cord with is a USB-C, & it also has a quick switch adapter for a USB-C to USB, which is very useful considering most plugs are USB. After using this phone for the last few weeks, I have to say I am #TeamPixel.
