Yes, they did mention it in keynote

It will overheat and measure it's own body temp

What?! No “Subs if u loved it?” I didn’t like that😅

You look like a retired musician

Was coming here to comment this

Fascinating. I would love to have a thermometer in my pocket

You look like a reliable guy, I'm gonna take your word for it

wish it could use some of that camera magic to just auto determine what you are pointing it at

This implies that they could add "non-humans" or "extra terrestrials" to the list.

yet another random from the internet who "spoke" with google /s

I guess how the calculations are supposed to work is that you have to take the room temperature and skin temperature and have a certain general formula to calculate it. I swear the common temperature sensor that we have during the covid times is no better than what we have right now.

So Dave need to insert his 8 Pro inside his body to measure his temperature ?

​@@63amgTV Yes, on camera please. But seriously, my point was just that the temperature sensor seems to measure accurately. To measure a fever, instead of insertion into the body, they will probably have an algorithm that infers the internal body temperature from the surface temperature.

@@The-Rest-of-Us The problem is surface temperature depends on ambient temperature. If he was in a sauna, the skin would be warmer than 37. Also im skeptical about how sweat influences the reading. IR thermometers are fast and convenient but they only provide a clue. To confirm body temp you should use a „normal“ thermometer. Of course ai could try to take into account the local weather forecast and/or ask for a temperature scan of the environment.

Armpit thermometres work well without inserting them

Yeah, there are several examples from Apple a few years ago and others also having to wait, especially, with new technology/sensors.

As soon as he said this, I was looking for this comment. Surface skin temp is not that same as internal temp

yup internal temp is more so than not different than skin time.

That makes sense! Tysm for explaining

I would also argue that that's why there's only Object Temperature. Once approved by FDA we might see Inner or Human temperature. It's a completely different reading. The sensor is clearly IR so it's totally capable.

I think it has to do with the settings. Thermal sensors measure the wavelength of the IR light that all things emit to calculate temp. Every type of material and surface has a different emissivity setting on a full thermal camera, and different surfaces that are the same temp, will appear to be a little bit different. Once they can use a "human" setting it will be closer. My thermal camera says I am 38.8c in default general settings mode but 36.6c on my forehead in human thermometer mode.

Yea they said that in stage

You are correct. They mention it on the Google Blog product update for the Pixel 8 Pro.

I think it's just that most people are assuming there's no way it won't be approved at this point and is just a matter of time (whether I agree with the assessment or not).

@@shubisgaming makes you wonder what these big tech reviewers are doing. MKBHD is also same. glossing over facts or completely missing specs. here dave is doing same. also peripheral body temp is always going to be lower compared to core body temperature. i mean for such big channels atleast some homework should be expected. also dave is confused that why video boost & night sight video is not available. but that was also said on stage that those features will arrive later.

​@jenishpatelbmc I would say he said it like that not as if he didn't know about the fact, but more of a feeling of disappointment. He knew that during the launch event it's said that it will come soon, but it's disappointing that it was talked so much but can't be tested until now

actually true

Such majestic hair!!

I dunno when he started rocking that "Trent Crimm, The Independent" hairdo, but I'm all for it.

I haven't watched any of Dave's vids for a while now, so that hair is a bit of a shock to me!

Agree! It's been a minute since I watched one of his videos and it was a nice little surprise. 😁

Haven't tuned in since I last bought a phone and the hair was a proper jump scare

He's a hot daddy

Simp

I swear the last time I watched his videos the long hair was looking odd on him not his best look, then I click on this video today and my man's hair is looking luxurious, I don't know how he pulled it off, I guess we just have to trust the process 🤣@@urooj09

@@urooj09 yall need help

@@urooj09 hahaha, hes really cute though

It works flawlessly until you're in lower light scenarios. I was literally in my bedroom with just the lamp on and it said I had to use the fingerprint sensor. Doesn't matter's I just wish they had something along the lines of Face ID.

Hello. Do you still receive updates ? Did you replace your battery with Google support ?

I thought they cancelled that?

​@@mantas9827pretty sure pixels 1-5 still have free unlimited storage

Using custom rom pixel experience, uploaded more than 200gb pics😂

Have an OG pixel, can confirm it still has unlimited original quality photo upload

​@@mantas9827 no, you can still buy a used OG and get unlimited storage

ikrrr

The camera it´s a lot better than the 6 pro?

How is the accuracy of the finger print sensor?

@@IpickedTheR3Dp1LL I've had no issues with it! Had a tempered glass screen protector on it since it came out of the box but it works almost 100% of the time for me. Quicker than the 6 Pro. I know Linus said it was basically crap on the review on LTT, but JerryRigEverything scratched the hell out of the screen on his and it still worked fine.

@M4R7YN awesome! Thank you for the reply

@@emmanuelpena1925 not really , almost the same in day time

Ya for sure. The IR tech in Apple’s 5 year old notch is still amazingly secure. Kinda weird how no android phones have been able to do better yet

For someone who moved from a pixel 4xl to a 6 pro, it's definitely a plus going back to face unlock. Probably won't work in the dark though without extra sensors

​​@@Dave2Dpixel 4XL did better or as good but no android provider wants to go to an island like apple

@@reecea5432 Iris scan of s8/s9 series was pretty cool and fast too!

​@@Dave2DI would argue that the soli radar on the Pixel 4 was more secure, especially with how responsive it was and how it responded. Better to scanning a face when you we're wearing things

@@Moody_Blues_ ⁠ That’s not how biology (or physics) works. Skin temperature will often be differerent from internal body temperature. If you took the same non-contact infrared thermometer and measure your forehead while you were standing in a snowstorm for a few minutes while you standing in direct sunlight on a cloudless afternoon, the thermometer will produce noticeably varying measurements while your internal body temperature will not have changed all that much (assuming you’re healthy and your body is capable of proper thermoregulation). NCITs are more popular these days because of their… lack of contact, but an oral, rectal, or even axial measurement is understood to be more accurate. Beyond that, studies of non-contact thermometers available to the general public have shown that different manufacturers’ products can vary from each other by +/- 1 to 2 degrees. What matters for certification is consistency of measurement, and that is determined by conducting tests with the device fixed in amount with a specific position, and distance from a known calibrated emitter, not by a lab technician freehanding the device like they were taking a really bad selfie.

​​​@@Moody_Blues_no matter how you slice it every no-contact IR thermometer is only reading the surface temperature. There's physically no way for it to measure your internal body temp. It guesses based on the surface temp and those types of thermometer are actually usually off by way more than .1 degree C. They're just convenient and close enough to determine if you have a significant fever or not.

@@Moody_Blues_ Put it inside you ass it will measure your inner temperature

@@CaseyDarwin … which is why IR thermometers are not feasible to measure *body temperature* and should not be marketed as such. Imagine some kid burning at 40 degrees, the thermometer reads 37 and the mother thinks their kids are simulating… I appreciate the warning not to measure body temp. Just weird they showed it in the app…

@@PfropfNo1 but at least I'm the US, IR thermometers are sold to measure body temp.

They put that on there specifically for Covid it’s a great selling point for that

The Lidar was particularly upsetting. Google has a lead on this with Project Tango. Then Apple came along with ARkit which doesn't require special hardware. So Google, during their Apple fever era, came out with ARcore & killed off Project Tango. (They also uodated Material Design to use white color with outline icons & added a notch to Pixel to follow Apple during this era) Now Apple embeds Lidar in their iPhones & iPads, and Android is stuck with inferior quality camera-based solution. It's so disappointing. AR measurement is super handy & useful in lots of situations. Now even Google's own ARcore-based measurement app is killed off.

@@NopWorks Man, I forgot about Tango. That was such a cool platform that would've allowed for so many useful features. I don't like a lot of things about Apple, but the one thing I respect about them is that they won't implement a feature half-baked, and they generally stick with or improve their features. 3D Touch and the headphone jack are the only omissions I can think of off the top of my head.

Did you do the trade through Google or in store through your carrier?

That one from you is very useful feedback actually. I'm planning to buy pixel once it gets available in my country, but I eager to discover more real user feedback over the time. Could you share an update under this comment after a couple of weeks of usage? I guess it will be very useful for others.

Yes, pls update us

I will be curious as to how the battery life is for you after a couple weeks of use. A lot of people keep emphasising the adaptive battery, but you're already experiencing a surprisingly good amount of hours after a short period of time with the phone. Getting my Pro tomorrow, super excited.

@@denysdiehtiarov7643 yes i can definitely do that.

@@erik4798 will do 👍

😅

MKBHD makes the best vids

Honestly, I would prioritize hardware over software.

@@ociddo burden? The reason ios and android (it was at start not google...) exists is the appstore / playstore AND the amount of credit card information. The credit card data was a huge thing that apple has millions of that in like 2009/2010. Google and apple make a ton of money of the app/playstore.

​@@omeeeWhat does that have to do with anything he said? Yes, it is a burden to develop THE ENTIRE OS! No, it's not from scratch, no Google did not invent android (they bought it), but they sure as hell have the monumental responsibility of maintaining, updating, advertising, improving, and stabilizing the world's most popular operating system. There are pros and cons to this, sure. Pixel devices (Google phones) are capable of being optimized to a degree not possible for other OEMs. They get to play to gatekeeper to some degree. So google saves the best feature for their phones because they can and should given how much more work Google has than other OEMs regarding Android.

The battery is pretty impressive. The stress test out performed the iPhone 15 Pro Max by a couple of hours.

But what about standby power? That's arguably more important. Most people actually use their phones less than 2 hours per day. iPhone has been king of standby time forever.

​@@MykorLplease where is this info comming from ? I'm pretty interested in the battery life of P8

my wife has a pixel 6, the regular one and that seems to be holding pretty well

@@chav3sko KZfaq reviews, many stress tests were done and you can watch other phone's results and compare to them :)

i think people would be put off by that as far as privacy and whatnot, probably not worth the PR nightmare

​@@MrSwaggernaut83but you have to select the material anyway...how would this result in a PR nightmare?

@@palashbhaumik4050 people are understandably very careful about camera access at all, and especially with auto recognition which might even have to send data off device, it's like livestreaming a camera feed basically. Picking yourself is the least intrusive way and the categories are fairly broad

I don’t think it can focus very well when holding it less than an inch from the surface and even if it could it would be hard to tell what the material is. Like if I’m measuring a black piece of plastic how would it know if it’s not a black piece of painted metal

I don't think so. A laser does not measure temperature, but thermal sensors sometimes have a laser just so you point it in the right spot. A thermal sensor is reading the wavelength of the infrared light all things emit, and calculates temp from it. The changing of the type of surface in the settings is consistent with changing the emissivity settings on a thermal camera depending on what you want to measure.

just get a 7 or 7a, they're getting heavily discounted and still supported for another 4 years

I got the OnePlus 6T and it’s still running smooth as well. I feel like I’m only upgrading to the pixels once this one actually kicks the bucket, which seems like never at this point 😅

Mate 30 has a big ass notch, and p40pro has that ugly ass double punch hole

This 💯

Huawei Mate 20 had finger print in the display AND face id. I loved that phone, expecially during covid and mask bs. You just used finger print in the store.

@@omeee yea and the phones display is garbage

@@OnlineGirlfd mine was very good. It was the best specced Phone.

google has a history of promising things and taking them away. also, noone will have a phone for 7 years so it's kind of like getting a promise that doesn't matter.

​@@mushie1221On one side I agree with you, but on the other side, I am currently using a 6 years old Pixel 2 XL, so I really think it is a realistic situation.

@@mushie1221 they’ve def ended services I was using… to the point where I am skeptical of new services. That being said, they made good on Stadia games.

U mean 8 vs 7

All good points

1400 nits outdoors in the sun with auto brightness on. 2,000 nits peak for HDR videos.

Don't forget about the 7 years of software updates. Do people really think that a company will support a phone this long and not get paid more?

​@@fightnight14😂Yes because enough people believe whatever Companies tell them, even if they don't do what they say, short memory is at a all time high nowadays.

Same with some Huawei phones. But Dave and many other youtubers are mostly focused on the North American market.

Nobody cares about Huawei's garbage. Huawei is irrelevant.

TIL

in the same boat. you decide on where you trading in the 5 yet? I'm still trying to figure out the best place

@@dis_john I'm in Europe don't think it's really an option here

Nb fkn need it

I think it's a great addition to a smart phone, if it works right. Seems to me like this tech in phones is late to the game. Aim and click thermometers are simple tech and cheap.
