Google’s Pixel smartphones have long been our favorites, and if you’re an Android fan, there’s no better phone right now. In our testing, these phones impressed with their Octa and Super Octa displays, sleek design, powerful performance and AI capabilities from the new Tensor G3 chipset, and increased battery life.
The Pixel 8 is the smaller of the two, with a 6.2-inch touchscreen and similar features to the Pixel 8 Pro. However, the latter offers some additional features, including higher maximum display brightness, a new temperature sensor, and configurations with up to 1TB of storage.
In addition to the 50 MP main camera of the Pixel 8 Pro, we also get a 48 MP ultra-wide-angle camera and a 48 MP telephoto camera. AI photography features like Best Tag and Magic Editor are available on both phones.
If you want to take advantage of the Pixel 8 phone without spending too much, the good news is that the mid-range Pixel 8a phone is also available for Prime Day. Price reduced to $449, $50 off.
