    Kriegsherr, 04 Oct 2023Google thought it would sell cause apple could sell. But Go... moreYes you are so right because Apple didn't have that. Wait wait what the iphone 15 has USB-C what a revolution hold the presses. Lucky iphone makes quality phones, I mean have you seen how amazing and fabulous the upgrade was doen iphone 14 to 15. Was the biggest upgrade ever never has there been a bigger upgrade or an 1500usd for that gets about 14 degree Celsius in standby mode cause they can't handel the apps running in the background. Perhaps also never has there been a phone removed from an entire country because it's radioation levels are too high (hello iphone 12). You right major step backwards for Google shame on them for making the base model 799 instead of 1200usd like Apple. Wel in gonna put my logic to the test and eat some apples they say it keeps the doctor away or something. 🤣

            I love how people burning this phone down in the comments. Y'all could have an iphone for 1.5k what has USB-C and overheating while in standby mode cause it cant handle the apps running in the background. 🤣

                  I hope that the 7 Pro gets the manual camera settings and full resolution modes via an update.

                    Gsmarena, your Pixel 8 Pro specs are wrong (your Pixel 7 Pro specs are wrong, too). Neither the 7 Pro's main camera nor the 8 Pro's main camera has omnidirectional autofocus. Why do you always confuse Octa PD with omnidirectional autofocus? Octa PD is a marketing term for Quad Bayer Dual Pixel autofocus. The tele camera and the ultra wide angle camera of the 8 Pro don't have Dual Pixel autofocus by the way.

                        I miss the time when they had the nexus line up. No nonsense phone for 500$.

                          Shamrock Sean, 04 Oct 2023Who keeps a phone for 7 years anyway?? 🙄There are people that I personally know that only change their phones when they become unusable.
                          7 years is really good for the environment.

                              Shame. No memory options or upgrades for the regular. It could be a solid competition for the Xperia 5 V, with a few compromises at a lower price of course.

                                I could live with the midrange SOC Google is using if they would at least admit like Apple that the QC modem is essential so customers can use the networks they pay for to the fullest.

                                  Also, I was expecting the satellite communication feature to debut on pixels. After all, apple released it already a year ago with iphone 14.

                                    Damn...I was really hoping for the larger 1/1.12" sensor.

                                    Upgrades are minimal but the price bump is signficant. I think the Pixel 8 series is not as good a value as Pixel 7 was.

                                    7 years of OS sounds nice but doesnt add much value compared to say, 5 years. Would rather have preferred a better camera or 256GB storage at the same price.

                                      Shamrock Sean, 04 Oct 2023Who keeps a phone for 7 years anyway?? 🙄I'm still using a Samsung Note 3 Exynos variant, and you know what, everything is working just fine. Of course it has an outdated Android and not all apps are available but per general is ok for a phone that is 10 years old. Today's chipsets are very powerful so I see no problem really to use the Pixel for 7 years.

                                        Shamrock Sean, 04 Oct 2023Who keeps a phone for 7 years anyway?? 🙄Ask the iPhone users. And some Samsung users even.
