Well in my country I got the P8 with a discount for extending my contract which came down to 696 euros and I will sell the buds for 100+ so the phone will cost me less than 600euros which is still a bargain in my eyes.

          Anonymous, 26 Oct 2023Battery life should be at least 110 hoursThese reviews don't tell the whole story, most phones and probably pixels more so take 2-3 weeks and longer for their batteries to really settle and improve.. literally everybody's said the new 8 has a bump in battery life, the unboxing preview was what only a week ago.. so somethings off or these guys are pumping out results too early

They won't guarantee 100% protection yes, because it also depends on the phone user's unsafe habits (Ex. not locking the phone or using simple phone lock and passwords, browsing/downloading on torrent sites, sideloading unknown sourced apps, etc.)

              Just because locking our doors with upgraded door locks won't guarantee 100% protection from burglars doesn't mean we should just leave doors with old deteriorated door locks as is.

                if you read it right you see it's not a bit off.
                check video playtime pixel 8 vs samsung s23. pixel is better 2.30h.
                so if people use the device to watch more youtube videos, tiktok and instagram it will have better battery on pixel 8.
                where it lost bad is making calls that most people don't use it anymore.
                I make 5 calls per month at best. 99% I use internet to talk to people.

                    888 ( Samsung Semicon)
                    9000+ ( tsmc)

                    Rog 5 scored higher battery endurance and did better during stress tests. Far better.
                    Way better than stress results of Rog 6 Pro as well.

                      Who makes A17 Pro that has heat issues and Apple had to nerf?
                      Who made 615? It had heat issues.

                      Chips made at samsung semicon that do not have any heat issues:

                              If Samsung process not at fault then how come almost all Samsung chip is inefficient but almost all TSMC are efficient? Surely there has to be something about Samsung process which makes it inferior. Maybe they cannot even manufacture good design, leaving it's clients with no choice but to make poor design? Who knows?

                              Apple heat issue is a new one and not the norm in TSMC. Its too early to blame TSMC for this. It could be variety of issue including Apple's new chip design, poor cooling etc.

                                Nic2k83, 25 Oct 2023I stopped reading at 83 hours endurance rating. Absolutely... moreIdk, I watched many reviewers saying that pixel 8 battery life is a great improvement over the past generation.
                                Maybe not the best in the market, but some of them obtained a battery life comparable to the s23.
                                So the value obtained by GSM arena seems a bit off to me
