Say I was going to buy the pixel 8 for it's features that stand out to me as the average customer. I like the cameras, the pocketable size, the simplicity of the software, and the fact that it will last me many years to come. What device do you suggest i buy instead?

      Dimensity 9300 is clearly a more innovative product than 8g3. So I wonder Qualcomm managed to snag this one

          I like Pixel phones, have one myself, but even I'm surprised.

            The tab s9 and pixel 8 won, actually made me laugh in real seeing this 😂😂. Actually solidifies how the tech and mobile market is going and how biased it really is. 8g3 chip winning an award too, i like qualcomm and think they make great chips but they arent close to being the best tech or most advanced, joke of an event and joke judges lol.

                        In general, neither the software nor the hardware has been "normal" lately 🤦🏻‍♂️.

                          If you're in Europe, Asia, South America, Africa? Forget it:

                          no call screen, no inline grammar checking, weaker voice typing, no web page summaries, no video boost, no Bard, questionable 5G support, no magic compose nor contextual replies

                            Pixel 8?

                            Rainbow banding display where you cannot tell if it's white, pink, or green. Mediocre battery life, even worse charging time. In house chipset that's underperforming compared to the competition. Last, but definitely not least, the least polished, most bug perplexed version of Android I have ever used. Gave up on it after a month, went back to my S23.

                                  Even as a P8P owner, I have to disagree.
                                  This phone has many great things going for it but performance ain't one of them

                                    [deleted post]As an android user I have to agree with you 😂

                                    People will instantly support a brand just because they happen to have one of their products . Even if the product or entire brand is actually bad, they will still fight for it in the comments section .

                                    Hey Samsung ! Bring back the SD card slot AND the 3.5mm jack on high-end flagships ( S , Fold ). Or I'm switching to Sony!

                                        The "smart"phone designed by the same team that launched pastel-and-whimsy Material You? Squiggle animations and oversized rounded buttons? The worst looking, least intuitive timepicker widget in the past two decades? A WEATHER widget that only shows the TIME when it's narrower than 3 icon widths? Icons that are no longer immediately identifiable? System will keep pestering you every three months if you actually want a password manager installed? or assumes you want permissions cleared if you don't use every app every week?

                                        Yuck. Pixel didn't win. Rather, nobody else competed.
