Several upgrades to the camera system, a brand new super-bright display, next-gen custom chipset, plus 7 years of software support - as generational improvements go, the Pixel 8 Pro appears to bring more than just the bare minimum. The 7 Pro from last year was already a capable enough handset, though, and it may very well still be the better option for those looking for a high-end end Google phone experience at a lower price than that of the latest flagship. Let's see how the two compare. Table of Contents: Design Display Battery Life Charging Speed Speaker Test ...
We've chased down some solid smartphone deals from the US market. As usual, Apple isn't the biggest fan of slashing prices be it for Black Friday or any other occasion, but we did include a deal on the iPhone 14 at BestBuy where you can save a whole $50 (it's something).

The Google Pixel 8 duo this year brings a handful of improvements compared to its predecessors despite recycling the same design for a few generations now. The new generation offers new camera hardware, nicer displays, faster charging, and a more powerful chipset with improved AI capabilities. They are the first Pixel phones to offer seven years of full software support. In theory, they should receive Android 21. However, if you are still determining which of the two you should get, we are here to help. Aside from the obvious differences in size and pricing, there are a few nuanced...
The latest generation of Google Pixel phones are available with healthy discounts – this covers the main series, the more affordable a-series and even Google’s foldable. Based on our poll about the Pixel 8 duo, most people were not happy with their MSRPs, so if you passed on them initially, it’s worth having another look. The Pixel 8 is a fine all-rounder and with the latest discounts its trending towards mid-range pricing territory. This is one of the smaller Androids today with a 6.2” display (finally a 120Hz panel). Note that Google will support the Pixel 8 duo for 7 years, including...
The Pixel 8 Pro may be Google's showcase of what an Android smartphone should be, but there's a competing school of Android excellence headlined by the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. The Galaxy isn't exactly fresh - it's been around for close to a year now - but for the next couple of months, until its replacement shows up, it will remain the most talented alternative to the Pixel this side of the OS divide. We'll try to do a quick head-to-head to establish which of the two Android powerhouses is best for you. For starters, you can compare the complete specs sheets here or directly continue...
Both Google and Apple brought meaningful generational improvements to their top-of-the-line models this year. Changes in build and physical properties join the usual updates in the camera department and a mandatory upgrade to the internals. But with both the Pixel 8 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro Max getting better than their predecessors, which of the new models is better for you? For starters, you can compare the complete specs sheets here or directly continue with our editor's assessment below. Size comparison Google Pixel 8 Pro 213...
The Google Pixel 8 is now on sale and shipping and we have a hands-on of the compact phone and its bigger counterpart. But while we're working on the full review, we thought we'd do a quick unboxing as well. The Pixel 8 ships with a USB-C to USB-A adapter and a USB-C cable. Google doesn't include a charger in the box and if you want to get the official 30W unit, it will cost you €29. We have the Pixel 8 in Hazel, though it's more of a concrete or oil paint grey color. It's an interesting shade that makes us think of the M Brooklyn Grey Metallic paint job on the new BMW 3...
