Pixel 8 vs. Pixel 7 PRO - Which Is a Better Deal?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 чер 2024
- The Pixel 8 sits in an interesting position between the Pixel 8 Pro and the Pixel 7 Pro. The Pixel 8 is a better deal than the 8 Pro because of upgrades like a 120 Hz screen with 2000 nits max brightness. But the Pixel 7 Pro is even better value as its prices have dropped as low as $400 used or $500 refurbished. At the end of the day, the decision between these three compelling phones is up to you.

The Pixel 8 (CAD$749) is now cheaper than the Pixel 7 (CAD$879) pro as part of google's black friday sale. Given this, what would you do?
Ya plz ans that

@@joshandkristengarcia7113Hey, sorry for the late response! I didn't see this since it was a reply instead of a comment. It's probably too late for whatever purchase you made, but in case anyone is still looking at picking up one of these phones, here's what I'd recommend. I generally ignore sales from the manufacturer since those knock the prices down from brand new prices that are too high to begin with. The actual value of a phone is what it's going for used or refurbished, and that's the price I'd use to compare phones. By that metric, the phones in order of best value to worst and cheapest to most expensive are as follows:
$295 Pixel 7 refurbished
$364 Pixel 7 Pro refurbished
$550 Pixel 8, Amazon deal
$800 Pixel 8 Pro, Amazon deal
Hope this helps!
This is my opinion and why pixel 8 works for me better than pixel 7 pro:
1. I would rather have latest phone and get a little more life out of the phone.. With announced 7 years of updates, makes a lot of sense for people who use it minimally
2. A lot of people do love the small form factor.. So that again makes pixel 8 a great phone.. For me Pixel 4a had the best size screen.. With iPhone mini discontinued and A series having big screens pixel 8 is a great deal now
3. Pixel is supposed to give me a really good point and shoot camera and both do the job for me and with 8 pro being out of my budget and 7 pro being a year old with only 3 years of life left, I would love to go for 8. Also here in India we have weird pricing by Google even though the phones are manufactured here🤷 making pixel 8 more affordable with a deal rather than 7 pro.
or u can use pixel 7 pro for 2 more years then buy the pixel 9
Great content Jason and really good presentation. I'm Peter in Palm Beach and I'm glad I ran into your video. I subscribed! 🎄
I have my budget upto 750$
here in my region, I can buy 7Pro 256Gb version for 550$ & 8 256Gb for exact amount of my budget. I mainly use for socials & camera bcos of 5x optical zoom, I have my eyes on 7Pro. Can you recommend me if it's the right decision or should I just forget about the zoom and get the 8?
Same budget same question.

Iam confused too
Update. I recently bought a Pixel 7 pro at a discounted price and it's Amazing!!
@@pukitokiho6141 I just sold my iPhone 14 pro max and got the 7 pro and I don't miss the iPhone. Best upgrade ever.
Still got my Pixel Xl 2 since 2018. Crazy goood, never had a phone this long! But it sucks that it can't update. So thinking of buying Pixel 8 or Pixel 7 pro. The most important thing for me in this descision is the quality of the photo and video. Which one do you think is best for that purpose?
If the can not update bring the problem to your pixel 6, then don't buy pixel 7 pro, because it will end of update in less than 2 years.
i had two 2 xls, both had issues with the usb ports. one ended up bootlooping and couldnt be recovered. they still charged so it was an issue with the data line on the ports.
7 pro is $150 less than 8 in Mexico, is that a good deal for the 7 pro?
Hey thanks for taking a look at the regular pixel 8 and I got one on the way though your idea about the seven pro is interesting but I like the size of a smaller phone anyway thanks for covering the regular pics of late everybody just looks at the pro
I am new to Pixel
Pixel 7 pro or Pixel 8 which one should i buy ?
in my country both are same price(offer time)
8
@@anxietydisorders5917 Nah, 7 pro is way better. 9.29% more battery power, 19.63% higher pixel density, 4GB more RAM memory, resolution is 1440p also 120hz refesh rate, u have extra telephoto 48mp x5 where pixel 8 doesnt have it and also pixel 7 pro has a bigger screen 6'7 vs 6'2. Both phones are great but better option is P7P for sure.
@@no1special91pixel 7 pro will get android 17?
@@TitansCreed I have android 14 on my Pixel.
Well said Jason 👍, awesome comparation! I will wait for next release of Pixel with better battery (like OnePlus 11).
I've got à pixel 8 pro on the way but your vision; proved a thought I had about my pixel 7 pro
video """
Is google pixel 8 worth getting? Also does it take good pictures?
I alway get a galaxy phone it doesn't take good pictures
Still photos the best on the market for now
You're missing the point Jed - while we usually have an idea what our next phone will be often we have it down to two or three which is why we watch theses videos - we can all read up on specs etc but if someone is able to get multiple phones to compare/ review side by side (and for the most part they do this as a job) I would expect more of which the reviewer thinks is better and why as they have spent time with the devices - it may be one has bigger screen or slightly different camera but I can learn this reading up on them, what I don't know is how they perform over a period of time. I'm not casting aspersions on this reviewer specifically but rather this lazy genre that draws you in with the expectation of an opinion. Of course I'm not expecting a UA-camr to decide how I spend the best part of a grand but after the facts have been laid out I would like their opinion... How many of these videos end with 'let me know what you think'?! How about you let us know what you think as you've done the comparison?!
Sorry to hear that! I'm a full-time engineering student making tech videos on the side, so I don't do this as a job and definitely can't get multiple phones. I made this video after the Made by Google but before the phones were available for sale: my intent was to cover the release of the 8 series and compare the upgrades to previous Pixels. My hope is to grow this channel to the point it becomes financially feasible to test multiple phones hands-on and provide specific recommendations!
@@jasonrtech Sorry Jason, my throw away comment seems to have created some negativity, as I said I wasn't casting aspersions on your work specifically but rather the format many of these videos take. I enjoyed watching your video - all the best at college.
Adults having a conversation 👏🏻👏🏻
Pixel 7 pro or pixel 8 afterall they are at same price..priority is camera and good performance (not a hardcore gamer)...or go with other smartphone suggest........😊
Now pixel 7 pro is less than $300, but I just look at the last update date from now is only one year and a half, that make me wonder, because I want my phone last about 3 years. And my OnePlus Nord N10 after updating time, it become crazy restart itself very very often.
Bro where it is available for 300 dollars
@@just-by5qf Walmart
I bought the Seven Pro for $280 on eBay. Like new condition, And I'm very happy with the purchase. I would much rather save the $600.
can you pls share the link? I am planning to buy the same :)
wow, we have to make our own decision? what was the point of the video then?
Did you type this yourself?
Pixel 7 Pro brand new for £450 is tempting
If i am choosing phone for camera which is best option 7pro or 8 ???
7 pro probably since it has a telephoto lens, zoom will be great, people that go for pixel 8 just want to up to date with the OS, but i don't there's many people keep their phone for 7 years hahaha
7 pro no doubts
So I conclude that Pixel 8 is a better option than a 60hrtz screen in a 2023 Flagship phone with extra 100 $ on it
Got a 7 pro for 290 USD. best stuff man. The phone runs like butter
I've got myself a used 7 pro for $350. Can't complain.
Just say which one you prefer and why, it's not that hard.
I agree id buy the 7pro over the 8 💯 i absolutely LoVe my 7pro its display is beautiful ❤️ also the 8 is way too small in my opinion i wish they'd go back to the 6.4 thats the perfect size of a phone.
Pixel 7 series has pretty bad speakers. With that alone, I will go for the pixel 8 or 8 pro
Well that was a stupid title. 😢
Pixel 7 was standing untouched lot of time😂
In my non-professional opinion, the pixel 7 pro has fewer OS upgrades or in general security updates, and feature drops. The tensor G3 is also a lot better than the Tensor G2, specifically with AI capabilities due to tensor in general, just not being very powerful. You won't notice much of a resolution difference, and really the only thing you're actually getting is an upgrade in the pixel 7 pro Is it's zoom. If you want better zoom, get the 7 pro. The pixelate is a much better option for value. Also, due to its OS upgrades for 7 years, it'll retain value, Mimi, you can sell. Sell it for a good amount of money.
Voice typing did me dirty. Using a pixel 8 right now btw!
Pixel 7 pro is $721 and Pixel 8 is $915 in India. Now tell me guys which one is better value for Money 🙂
I bought two Pixel 7 pros for 50 bucks less than the $771 you just posted. Shop around
Hey Pixel 8 is 720$ or 60k/ INR after bank offers in Flipkart
Based on prices in the US, the phones in order of best value to worst and cheapest to most expensive are the following:
$295 Pixel 7 renewed
$364 Pixel 7 Pro renewed
$550 Pixel 8, Amazon deal
$800 Pixel 8 Pro, Amazon deal
Hope this helps!
should I get Pixel 7pro or 8 ? What's yours opinion 🤔🤔
First and the last time watching you. Classic answer: the choice is up to u. Be brave and answer the question from the title. Don't be so politically correct
You will be missed 🥺
I'll stick with pixel 6... bigger screen than 8 and better battery life.
I have a pixel 6. I think the only advantage the 8 has over the 6 is the brighter display. It's a shame the pixel 6 display isn't a bit brighter
Best buy 600$ = s22 plus
800$ = s23
900$ = S22 ULTRA
1000$ = s23 plus
1200$ = s23 ultra
Nothing is better than "Nothing" Phone 2 at 600$ unless u find some crazy deal on S23
S23 is already 9 months old, it's now much cheaper you could find the UFS 4.0 256gb for 700$
for 1000$ i'd say either get the 15 Pro with better video quality and more one handed phone, or the S23U if u like the bigger screen/battery life, the 10x optical zoom ...
and again the S23U is now much cheaper you'll find 12GB model for less than 1000$ so nothing is really worth 1200$
and Please just stay away from the S22 series we all know the massive overheating/throttling and battery issues they had ...
@Shockload yeah the s22 series has gor better in updates Mt s22 ultra exynos doesn't got hot nor throttle most micro stutters have gone but I'd still get a base s23 instead I've owned both. S22 iltras cameras aren't much better and s23 is faster but when I mean faster barely.
Don't buy Google pixel you will regret it
sounds like someone woke up with a sore bottom and a few dollars in yer back pocket
