Google Pixel 8 256GB Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Ashish Kumar]()
Verdict
While the Pixel 8 is a commendable smartphone in its own right, the handset may fall short in comparison to other smartphones in its price range when it comes to performance, viewing experience, and battery life. That being said, the Pixel 8 can be an outstanding choice for camera enthusiasts. It excels in capturing stunning photos, which are further enhanced by AI editing tools that will continue to improve with software updates for years to come.
Pros
- Impressive cameras, AI tools
- Good design
- Respectable battery life
- Amazing software support
Cons
- Slow charging speeds
- Performance could have been better
- Pricey
Design and display
+
The Pixel 8 follows the same design language as its elder sibling the 8 Pro. It boasts rounded corners, a glass back, a recyclable aluminium frame, and a rear camera visor with an oval-shaped cutout for the cameras. However, the regular Pixel 8 is much more compact. In fact, its dimensions are even smaller than last year's Pixel 7 (review) model, making the latest entry-level flagship from Google ideal for single-handed usage.

Cameras

Here, the Pixel 8 boasts the same camera resolutions as last year's model Pixel 7, with a 50MP primary sensor and a 12MP ultra-wide (UW) sensor. However, the 50MP primary sensor aperture size is now wider with f/1.68 as opposed to f/1.85 to let in more light and improve the level of detail whether you capture the images in daylight or low light. Similarly, the 12MP ultra-wide sensor supports a 125.8-degree field-of-view (FoV) instead of 114-degrees. For selfies and video calling, the handset sports a 10.5MP front-facing camera in the punch-hole setup.

Performance and software
+
While not the cameras, the performance and software of Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro are very much alike. They both are powered by Google's latest Tensor G3 chipset and run Android 14 with Pixel launcher out of the box. The handset also gets the longest major software update, up to 7 years.
Read More
Battery and charging speeds
+
Despite its compact size, the Pixel 8 boasts a larger battery compared to its predecessor, the Pixel 7. With a 4,575mAh battery, it provides over 5 hours of screen-on time. This suits users like me who prefer casual usage and don't engage in demanding tasks such as gaming and navigation for extended periods.
