    Samsung provides poor calibration by using saturation at high levels and warm tones.


      I honestly like the design a lot. The rounded corners, the flat screen, the curved back and the sleek metallic camera visor really look nice.

      The big problem is the lack of colour options. This has always been a problem for Google Pixel phones anyway, but recently Google's been making it worse and worse. The Pixel 8 should have a better colour option than Gray, and Porcelain should not exist when Pixel 7-series' Snow exists. This would be my plan:

      Pixel 8:
      •Obsidian
      •Snow
      •Sky
      •Rose Gold

      Pixel 8 Pro
      •Obsidian
      •Snow
      •Sky
      •Crimson (would be a slightly darker-than-average red colour, though not that close to maroon. It would have a close-to-gold colour camera visor) (EDIT: the colour would most closely resemble alizarin crimson)

Imagine if Microsoft started locking Windows down like that? You get a couple years of lacklustre updates, if you're lucky, and then you're out. No matter if you pay 100 bucks or 2,500 bucks for the device.

        Stop defending the cartel leader, Google, in this. This will change nothing.

          I love everything about pixels, especially the camera. Three things they could have improved. 1. No TSMC chips 2. No Battery fast charging 3. Poor thermal management, lack of implementing cooling technology.

            As you might see he did not much pressure to break the glass barely touch that phone in other words i wouldnt want a phone which cost 2000 and breaks everytime i accidentaly hit back side. Even a low height drop could make permanent damage not only tiny scratch.

If you w... moreThe only reason I'm looking at Pixel devices is that they are the only ones that are supported by GrapheneOS. Somehow all the other manufacturers seem to fail to deliver security friendly phones which is a real shame and quite pathetic. Or if Google only weren't so stubborn and would equip their phones with proper hardware.

                      Rounded corners slide better in the pocket, and get smeller chance of damage. Just like there is no rectangle windows in airplanes anymore. I approve.

                        45w charge please, at least....

                            The boxier pixel 7 pro looked better , in my opinion. These new designs, going by the leaks, are too rounded. Form over function tbh

                              I hope at least a 45w charge at least!! Since it will come with that bad processor, maybe now they can make it on par with an 8gen 1 plus... at least
