Was honestly not expecting these results! What do you guys think? Will the Pixel 8 Pro get better with software updates? Also - don't forget about the iPhone 15 & 15 Pro Giveaway (details in the description) and Nebula Nomad & Peaceful Palettes are now both LIVE in WallpaperZ! 🤩

I think it is a big deal that the pixel 7 pro has had a year of camera improvements through updates. I think these phones need at least a few months as they also start to learn and teach themselves with machine learning. I believe most phones cameras get better over time.

@@lejeuvideo they have improved somewhat in the 8 pro (the details are less oversharpened) but it's not where it needs to be at all. The cutout around the subject is bad and the bokeh dropoff is unnatural. So yes it's better, but I rarely use it as you almost always get a better result just taking the photo normally and applying portrait blur.

@mrfragger87 9 ай бұрын

@amier909 9 ай бұрын

I think they still need to do a better job with portrait mode, you still can't adjust blur strength before taking photos, you can't take 1x portraits without that 1.5x crop, you can't take portraits with the 5x telephoto unlike the iP15 pro max and edge detection is still not as accurate as on the comptetion.

@Alex-vp4ky 9 ай бұрын

I always felt that any phone gen that uses a new larger sensor/mp count will always lose to the last gen simply because all the ai and enhance tricks aren’t fully tuned for the new images. The following yr (S year) is where that camera shines because all the software is fully designed to make that camera produce the _best_ photos. So id imagine that any issues in the pixel 8 pros photos will be solved in either a later software update or next gen, since this is the first year of 50 mp tele and ultra wide lens.

Hey Bro nice work! Can you please test the screen display of the pixel 8 pro ? I noticed that the screen is so dark when it's on 50% brightness (comparing to the S23 ultra which is much brighter --- 40% Brightness on S23 ultra = 70% of Brightness on pixel 8 pro // however, on 100% they are identical). Thanks!

@marksouthwell4490 8 ай бұрын

They both have different incremental brightness with the slider . The pixel 8P has 2400 nits , but that only applies to auto peak brightness. In general use, or when using the manual slider , the S23 has a slightly brighter display

@stephencallaghan6093 9 ай бұрын

Not surprised at all. I find the 7 pro an incredible, flag ship label worthy device. The price drop of the 7 pro makes it all the more appealing. Most of the Pixel 8 pro improvement will be by virtue of a hand off in processing to the cloud and not on device improvement. Seems the new chip simply doesn't have the capability to do the level of processing needed. It's no match for a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 gen 2. If you've got a 7 Pro don't upgrade - the new 8 Pro features may well come to the 7 Pro in time.

@DittoNews 6 ай бұрын

Amazing Review Man, fyi you look really similar to Andrew Garfield, but anyways, waiting now on my Pixel which i ordered on XMas, so just waiting on Amazon, looks still 100% solid the 7 pro, plus social media like X, or Instagram that are constantly lowering the quality, i think it doesnt matter that much if you are really really picky.

You can’t buy a phone based on the promise of future updates. You can’t also guarantee a update based on past behavior. There’s always something that will go down south, and things definitely change. Instead of apologizing for Google, it’s okay to say that it’s not as good as the previous. That’s how phones improve overtime. I’d said the iPhone 14 Pro photos weren’t as good in the HDR department as the iPhone 13 Pro, people said I was crazy. Look at the iPhone 15 Pro with Smart HDR 5, it has improved. This is what you people need to understand.

Main thing I hate about my 7 Pro is it's extremely heat sensitive. Outside in the Arizona heat more than 15 minutes the phone starts shutting down apps. It can't handle the heat as well as my Samsung did. So if I want to ride my bike and listen to music in the summer, I need to carry a frozen water bottle in a small freezer bag and put the phone in there or it will shut down (no music).
