    Most reviewers do not blame apple for slow charging. But they do blame Google. I want to understand why?

      When apple was still on 60 hertz display MKBHD didn't say anything, but when pixel 6a launched with 60 hertz display, MKBHD blasted like anything.
      That is very very very unfair.
      All reviewers conveniently forgive and forget crimes committed by Apple.

    For everything it is, the 8 Pro should've been priced at $800 max. It doesn't help that after overseas shipping, this device is just $100 less than a S23 Ultra that has better performance, faster charging and storage, more consistent software, and better integration with external workflows. Software tricks alone aren't worth a thousand bucks. And there's no reason to spend a thousand dollars if all people do on a phone is scroll content and browse the web.

      Just get the phone from the carrier it's way cheaper. Here in Canada Rogers is given out the phone for financing at 27$ CAD a month so 648$CAD which is 473$ US or you can even lease it for just 10$ CAD / month so 240$ CAD or just 175$ US. it's dirt cheap. No iPhone 15 Is close to being this cheap or Samsung flagship

    My only issue with mine is WiFi connection. I'm regularly having to restart my phone to connect. Especially if I'm somewhere I don't go everyday, like a local coffee shop or something. Something I've never had to do with any other phone.

    Why would anyone choose this over a Samsung? As far as an android goes customisation is at its worst. Can’t mirror to tv without a chrome cast, can’t clip an image from a photo, the fingerprint sensor is a total joke for a 2nd year in a row and the battery life can’t compete with S23 Ultra.

    I returned mine. I used it for about 2 weeks returned it. It's my personal phone and my office hone with outlook and Teams. There were few issues. Software was also a problem, For one, You can't remove that stupid search bar from the bottom of the screen. I paid $1000 and i Don't have full control of my phone?!! I cannot remove stuff i don't want from the screen?!! WTF was that thinking? don't remember much because I returned it about 3 weeks ago, but there was few other software negatives that I can't remember now. I was thinking was this seriously made by google? It's their own OS and it's very messy. Don't even sstart me on the battery life. I'm coming from an LG V60 which even today after 3 years of use still can run about day and a half on a single charge. The phone gets hot. Specially if you're on 5G and watching a streaming video, it gets ho5 around the camera. Amazing cameras though. The Tensor SoC is still not polished to compte with Snapdragon or Apple silicone. I hope google will come strong big next year.
