I likes the phone,very good and fast OS (my opinion) and the camera Is just great.But the overheating!Too hot even performing basic tasks,and,of course the overheating causes worse battery life,even though i don't play games or use the phone much in general,It's still a bit noticeable.

      I bought Google Pixel 8 set one and half months ago. After one and half month the set was suddenly shutdown (closed automatically) and tried several times to "on" never on. I have bought through Flipkart online shopping, India. The warranty period of Flipkart was crossed however the Googles warranty time for repair is for 1 year. Now I am in dilemma how does it solved?

        I bought one on the basis of the great reviews. It seems like none of the reviewers actually tried to transfer data from a previous phone. I tried four times to transfer (non-Google but available on Google Play) apps from my Android to my new Pixel 8. Despite Pixel's online help indicating that it can be done - it apparently can't, as 90 minutes with 5 different agents confirmed - you have to download all the apps again via Google Play. Well stuff that - my new phone will be back on Ebay tomorrow.

They all are following the path of iphones just copying them (first time a notch was shown on an iphone every manufacturer critice it, now everyone do like this, the same with camera bumps, lack of 3.5 jack, and the list goes longer and longer

            Used a pixel 8 from January till August when the hardware showed lines and green screen.And I brought to shop to fix it in warranty
            I know I got one of the bad batch but the overall experience was disaster.
            Never again a pixel phone.
            For the price you can have 2 better phones.
            Battery overheating, not lasting 6 hours, screen problems, camera was better my p30 pro huawei, lags. Also didn't liked the keyboard. Really pissed off at the point that after 3 weeks I got back the phone"a new one" and I sold to first Chinese shop on the way.
            No more Google phone for me ever

                    The battery life of P8 really sucks, if fully on Wifi, yes it lasts much longer, but if you are on 4G/5G connectivity, confirm that you will need to charge another round for further usage. Yes, you can charge it, and when you found the charging speed is that slow, imagine how crazy is that. Overall, everything perform good except the suck battery life.

                      I was looking for a replacement to my aging Xperia... but the Pixel fails to impress me: mediocre battery life, no expandable memory, no Assistant button, no audio jack, no LED for quiet notifications.
                      Basically, your paying only to get good cameras and long updates.
                      I'll pass.

                        Fairly poor battery life, given the its' capacity. Getting much better from a 3900 mAh S23. It's the modem, really. Samsung's 5300 modems just aren't that great.

                          UseR, 07 Mar 2024All good, but the network connectivity is underwhelming. Al... moreJust the opposite for me. My pixel 6 had great connectivity for about a 16 months then it turned into complete trash. I had to constantly toggle on and off airplane mode to get a cellular connection and even then getting reliable 5G was next to impossible, I altered the settings to use LTE due to this. The modem in the 6 is known to be inferior and have connection issues. Had zero issues with the 8 so far, just hoping that continues.

                            All good, but the network connectivity is underwhelming. Always searching for connection on places where i never had issues with the PIxel 6. IN the subway there is NO CONNECTION AT ALL. Because of the search for connection it tends to run warm, hence battery life is mediocre and i don't believe it will hold 7 years. 3 would be surprising.

                              Got the pixel 8 trade in with iPhone SE and so far the pixel 8 is good including battery performance

                                A battery is a joke. I had more screen time with my old phone than with this. If a battery is important to you dont buy it.

                                    Are the edges of the screen sharp and uncomfortable like the Pixel 7?
