So far the smallest (But still too big...) current phone on which custom ROM can be easily installed on. And a pretty good phone, honestly...
Good computing power that easily gets along with Android obesity, battery last 'bout 3 days of my use (I mainly call, text, take photos and sometimes browse internet) and suprisingly, aside from crappy focusing (which is a problem number one since ever in majority of phones), good camera. For me 128GB is a overkill (Usage under 14GB incl. Android) as I merely use "basic" features and move photos/videos regularly to my own archive solution. No 3.5mm jack as a solid minus, tho.
And the phone itself is stout 'n' sturdy, equipped with thicker case "feels sure" in hand.

Software-wise, eh... Android is Android, but like there were any alternatives (And no, iOS is not a option as it's completely locked-down walled garden)...
However, as said before, at least custom ROM can be installed (And stock ROM is easily obtainable, so it can be easily restored to factory setup in case of something going wrong). Currently runnin' LineageOS 21, with GPlay-only soft installed via Aurora. It's still "that" Android, far from perfection, but at least bit better.

It's ironic though that [one of] best phone for de-Googled Android is a Google phone, but that's how the world we live in looks alike...

          Hello guys, how much time you've been using this device. I fear getting it and experience the blue vertical line that appears on the screen that some are experiencing.. are you all having this issue (for old users of the device).

                  Adel J, 28 Oct 2024This one. P8 feels cheap in the hand.I think you wanted to say that 8a feels cheap, but I don't belive you because I tested them both and 8a is nicer in hand and not as slippery.

                          If this three device in UAE is almost the same price which one I should buy and why:
                          *Pixel 8 (256GB) New
                          *Pixel 8 Pro (256GB) Used
                          *OnePlus 12R (256GB/16GB) New

                          or wait for OnePlus 13R

                                  I didn't realise before buying this phone, but this is a rather narrow device. I mean pay attention to the width of it, only 70.8 mm. Causing the display to be elongated; it looks awful and in practical usage more like 5.5 inch device especially if you watch videos. And the default font size is way too low. You can obviously increase it, but that will cut off many texts. Really wish I had paid attention to the dimensions before buying but fell for the 6.2 inch. Shame
