You need a better wallpaper to do these tests! Looks like it's cracked everytime but it's just the wallpaper 😂
Was about to say that! Hahaha😂😂😂😂😂
lol yeah I know, was just the stock one so slipped my mind.
First thought of everyone who watched the video!
Mee too thought screen cracked 😂😂
exactly wtffff😂🤣🤣🤣
I must say, this phone looks beautiful as hell tho. Really nice design tbh.
👍
So much nicer than the iphones
Worst choice of wallpaper for a drop test 🙂
yup, I didn't realize that for some reason. Was just the stock wallpaper on the phone so slipped my mind.
At least you got a drop test duh, be grateful
You fooled me with the first drop with that wallpaper 😆
lol yeah sorry, should have thought about that. Was the stock one on the phone.
Thanks for taking time out to produce this video as your experiment was very insightful.
Based upon what I've seen here, the Google Pixel 8 pro hardware seemd to be a solid phone. I honestly thought that the chrome camera visor would have got more scuffed but it did okay 👍
👍
These controlled drop tests are never quite like reality. Often, you introduce spin and acceleration forces when attempting to catch your falling phone. Good video anyway.
If the Phone is falling , I try to reduce the impact by just letting it drop on my foot .
👍
@@avash2009 I'd probably just kick it towards something, crushing it even more.
This was painful to watch 😄 Thanks for conducting these tests. I'm impressed with the durability.
You're welcome :)
Good job Google
👍
I dropped my pixel 6pro several times. A few face down and I thought for sure it's cracked. But so far it doesn't have a single crack. My wife has a S20 ultra 5g ,she has replaced her screen twice so far.
I'm glad to see this as the quality of the recent Pixels had very questionable quality control! Maybe now is the time to try a Pixel out! 😊
👍
I dropped my pixel 6 pro several times and it hasn't cracked screened or anything.
Definitely seems better than most iPhone 15 Pro Max drop tests I've seen which had major cracks on the rear including the camera module literally detaching from the phone in many of them.
👍
Google really changing the industry!
👍
TOP!..thanks for your previews!I'll wait to see how the fingerprint unlock works and then I'll order it..even if I'm still undecided between the 8 and the 8pro.I use a 6.4 and honestly every now and then it's a little uncomfortable...but a 6.2" display is perhaps too small...dilemma🙈
👍
Its been just two weeks since my 7 pro fell out of my pocket while I was squatting. Barely 20 cm drop. Two corners shattered and spiderwebs all over. They must've done something incredible this year
Great testing! Keep it up.
Thanks, will do
Awesome, watching this from my Pixel 2 with a cracked screen. Can't wait to upgrade.
👍
share your experiences with p 2 .
@@imokay17890 It's holding up pretty well. Does everything except in a slower manner. Photos still look perfectly fine. Battery is also lasting me through the day.
I'm actually an Xperia 1V user but last month someone took it off my hands and ran so I had to get used to my Pixel 2 XL with a smashed screen for the entire month but fortunately everything still works
Finally Google made something durable ❤❤❤
👍
The only problem with Google is they never seem to interested to bring this devices to more countries. Yes, i can buy from 3rd party online sellers but without official support and warranty, its to risky.
yup
Then you should move to a country that takes better care of customers. The reseller is responsible for taking care of warranty which sounds very logical to me.
@@hermanstokbroodHow ignorant and stupid Americans can be never cease to amaze me.
It's an unofficial reseller. Means they probably imported the phone via gray-zone imports. They do those in batches so do not expect a warranty, at least not in the said country.
@@hermanstokbrood Let's move to a different country just to buy a phone. Seems logical.
lol
Hi, just wondering after the drop test, was the phone's function test conducted, such as keyboard, camera zooming, camera adjustments, I guess you'd probably done the checks off screen..
Yeah everything still works. Just needs a new screen at this point.
This video deserves way more recognition at it's the only Pixel 8 Pro drop test (without a case or skin) video on UA-cam.
I just got a brand new P8P for s good deal. The 9 series dont look appealing to me and especially at full price.
Thank you for doing this video and dropping your beautiful Pixel for us. 🍻
My last pixels was P6P but dropped for waist level and black glass shatter secondly always getting micro scratches in my pocket without running on any hard surface, now I’m convinced that I get this pixel and use it as my main phone.
After nearly 2 years with my P6P it also just shatters the front screen hitting a bit of metal under my desk, super upset but let's hope P8P doesn't do the same.... I dont wanna find out for at least 2 more years
It's unwise to use phones without screen protector as no matter the quality of the gorilla glass, it will always scratch from dust which has silica in it which is harder than glass. Screen protectors in most cases also save screen from cracking if the screen protector is edge to edge. They themselves get cracked while absorbing the impact. Screen replacement= 100$ , screen protector replacement= 1 to 2$
@@azeemuddinkhan923 it’s true but curved screens don’t feel nice to me with screen protectors, I’ve been using my iPhone for 2 years without screen protectors and it has little to no scratches.
I honestly just said fuck it and paid big papa Verizon protection money so I'll just walk around caseless and just enjoy it until it gets nuked by my clumsy habits
👍
Finally the flat screen is used in the flagship section aside of iphone , so like this durability increased a lot,tnx for the video
👍 you're welcome
Wow, I did not expect this Pixel to survive. @PBKreviews, could/did you try connecting the new Pixels to an external monitor? There were some rumors about display output support, but nothing was announced.
Yes I tried and it doesn't support display out
The rumors are that Google is working on it. The hardware does theoretically support it and in the software it's disabled and it's unclear if it does show up anything when enabled with root
Thanks for the test. Appreciate the straight forward droptest without talking 10mins in between.
Thank you and you're welcome
PBK you are doing Gods work.
Its amazing! ❤️❤️❤️
0:45 please here use manual settings on your camera to prevent the auto adjustment of WB, shutter speed, iso.... the background is instable.
Thank your effort and content. ❤
Yeah I need to look into that, generally with a regular camera I take care of it but when recording with phones, some settings just don't work as well.
The fact that this phone survived the drops that well is amazing. Totally blown away.
you forgot the small little rock that most of the phone face falls on due to murphys law.
Thank you!! This is exactly what Jerry rig everything lacks.
You're welcome
Phonebuff has a really good drop test too.
omg thats insane, I expected it to be destroyed after the first drop, are phone screens this durable nowdays or is this just the P8?
pizel 6 and 7 has curves display. 8 is more durable due to flat screen.
good, although potential internal damage is a threat
Could you do a fingerprint speed test? That's the only thing keeping me from buying one
If you do the fingerprint speed test, could you please try it with different moistures/dryness levels. For example set it up with just one normal finger scan then test to open it a few times, then wash hands with soap and water to get rid of the oils and try again. Then maybe try drying finger out with a hair dryer and trying again. I had the pixel 6 and sometimes my phone would lock me out because I had tried to log into it with my finger so many times. I finally figured out it was usually because my hands were just cleaned or dried out due to the low humidity when I went out for a walk in the winter. I would have upgraded to the 7 if they went sonic in the sensor. Was planning on upgrading to the 8 with the rumoured ultrasonic sensor. Now I’m on the fence on the 8 because of the optical sensor.
@@curtisregimbald6423 Yeah, same for me. The P6Pro Sensor really is a discgrace
Beauty and durability, love it.
We‘re gonna need the teardown as fast as possible since the Internet goes crazy which sensor is in this thing 😂
Maybe a modified GNV… modified GN1 or GN2 in a smaller size since Google states it‘s 1/1,31".
Can‘t be the same GN1 since they stated in the conference that it‘s a completely new sensor
I didn't take apart the camera since it would render it useless, but showed the numbers on the flex cable if it will help figure out. iFixit or @Wekihome will upload a video I'm sure showing the sensor itself soon.
@@PBKreviewsalright that sounds great. Thank you for your answer!
It's GN1 behind a bigger aperture.
Possibly it is the Samsung isocell GNV sensor
You're welcome :)
built quality was amazing ❤❤🔥
👍
So far so good 🧐.
Thanks for making this video! It's reassuring me that the Pixel 9 Pro XL will probably be even more durable and I might try going case less with it.
please do a comparison with the iphone 15 pro too...for both repair and drop test
I don't think I've ever seen a phone survive that many drops onto concrete.
👍
You are great man.
Good Job.🎉
Thanks!
That was the most brutal drop testing that can be done really, no case straight on to concrete at head height.
Where is the drop test for the iphone 15 to compare?
Im feeling more and more confident about my purchase
Good stuff tyty ✌️❤️🍻
👍
How do you like it?
Would love to see the camera tested after the drops, especially the optical image stabilization since this is one of the few moving parts on a smartphone.
That gravel test in the Ziploc bag was hard to watch for some reason 😅😂
lol yeah
Great job PBK 👍
Thanks 👍
lol that background got me too
lol sorry should have changed the stock wallpaper.
@@PBKreviews No need to apology, you're the hero here still!
My Google Pixel 6 Pro with Rhinoshield case once fell from waist height onto a flat floor and broke the edge display twice...
Heck yea im impress google you are killining it i used the 3xl the 5 , now i have the 7 i want to wait for the 9 , 8 is gorgeous so the 9 will be
👍
I won’t be able to stream this right now cuz i’m on data, but your channel, content and the fact that you actually take the time to respond to comments are severely underrated.
Thanks :)
Do you give these phones away by any chance?
Why there is no camera comparison of the pixel 8 pro yet? I mean when the new iphone csme out ppl instantly released camera comparisons yet pixel still nothing even after 3 days...im not talking about this channel cause this is the only channel posts pixel related stuff so good job for that
It's under embargo still and Google owns this platform. Not gonna happen till Thursday the 12 th silly rabbit 😊
Please give us the most important thing which is the battery drain comparative test.
The P8P is a beast like a tank.
👍
Such a lovely phone 😢
I am in love with this device. I mean pixel series
Great video and testing! I just ordered a new Pixel 8 Pro to replace my Pixel 6 Pro on which I cracked the screen twice. Looks like the Pixel 8 is more robust based on your testing. Thank You!
Brother let me know i have to google pixel i have small budget which one i have to buy... Pixel 7 or pixel 8??
And let me know will all fearures of pixel 8 come to pixel 7 series?
Wow this could actually be a phone that i consider using without a case 😱
👍
Next time, use a wallpaper that doesnt look like cracked glass
yeah, should have, didn't think about it. Was just the stock one on there.
Actually pretty impressive
👍
As a pro clumsy mf I can assure that it's not the height of fall that matters its a how+luck(which in my case is set to 0 by default).
Also whats that hole on camera glass? Can humidity go through 🤔??or it's a one fat piece that covers sensors?
Lol yup, luck and other factors always come into play. Which hole are you referring to?
It looks like a mic hole, the one in the camera glass
It did appear to have a nasty pit in the rear camera glass unless it was a bit of loose dirt , it did look like a pit though. @@PBKreviews
Oh , could be mate ..... investigation line on the left :) .@@AlvaroPadilla97
yeah the one in the camera glass is a mic hole.
Best Google phone thus far.....most expensive too but still worth every penny.
👍
Who the heck drops their phone straight face down? Usually your phone drops while being used or while pulling out of your pockets. I hope you can simulate these scenarios.
Thanks for the video!
You're welcome
I wanna ask random question from you does your 8 pro sounds inside when you shake the phone ?
Don't know about the 8 Pro but by 7 Pro does & that is because of the OIS hardware in the camera setup, it's pretty normal TBH
Bro is there any heating issues?
Watch the other videos. Spoiler: not really
the flat edges saved the party ... but still people are looking for cuved edges. i mean the dimb (u) ones !
👍
Can u confirm that which camera sensor has used in the pixel 8 pro ,GN 1,GN2 or GN5
GNV
@@shakyawijemunilolyou're 100% wrong
@@Cibran_ and ur 100% right. Please, excuse my tomfoolery as I go delete my comment
It's already 10x better than iPhone 15 Pro Max
👍
Hello, 😊
thank you for your cool video.
Have a nice day
Hi, thank you :)
Please reply pixel 6 pro or pixel 7.
Not sure, I didn't use those phones for too long to recommend either.
Looking forward to the 8 Pro teardown.
👍
Got the 8 pro yesterday. Today it fell off my lap & the bottom corner is shattered with webbing along the entire back glass
Hi sir pixel 6 pro still worth to buy
Are the antenna lines easily scratched? I'm asking cuz I have the same phone and I was rubbing off some dust with a piece of paper and I know I went over the antenna line. So if you can please answer that question I appreciate it.
I'm not sure, but they are not painted on like a single layer if that is what you're worried about. Its a complete solid plastic embedded with the frame so even if it gets scratches or scrapes, that's only the surface of it and doesn't affect it.
@@PBKreviews but it can't be scratched right with a piece of paper or like a piece of paper like material. Like let's say from a lens cleaning wipe wrapper? For example, if I was gently rubbing it over so I can little tiny dust spec out
Please review app loading times since it's still using UFS 3.1
Dumb question, but What kind of shoes are those?? I want to get some like that.
I believe the brand was called nobull
Kunlun Glass on Flat Screen gonna be so strong them phone brands needs to switch!
👍
So are you having a giveaway for the phone ? 😊😅
You dropping the phone which I admire to purchase but can't afford it .😋
i watch the video many times to support you . thank you
Thanks 👍
Hey, thanks for doing the drop test and it looks like this phone would have the most drops. If you just stuck a case on it, good to know
👍
Deberias hacer pruebas intenas, como la.camara, para ver si sus estabilizadores son resistentes
this was a painful video to watch. recently i was maintaining a very healthy p8 when i was giving it to someone for photo and she dropped it. i investigated it and i found a very, almost unnoticeable white dust like thing literally in between the glass and the corner. and i investigated the rest with flashlight and i didn't even see major damages until i investigated very deeply.
Google has been sponsored this video
Has anyone made a wallet case or something where it gets rid of the camera bump and your cards just slide in the gap below?
Thanks for this test
You're welcome
i droped pixel 6 on screen many times it's first phone which last me more than 1.5 year
Good work #teampixel
Expand your availability
Nigeria 🇳🇬 inclusive
Now the question is how do i get this to My country
It's all funny! But not one made battery test yet. What is most important. My guess!
The video before this was a battery test. Maybe not a 100 to 0 but gives you an idea. There just isnt enough time to do everyone's requests.
…and cameras? Does autofocus work??
yup
Pixel 6 and 7 pro broke for me. Two mobiles in two years.
Is pixel 8 better? I am too hesitant to buy again and my screen broken again. The phone becomes useless as the sensor breaks with it.
What do you think?
I haven't used it long term, but overall seemed to handle well.
@@PBKreviews both of my pixel 6 and 7 fell a short distance on a little bump on the floor, ended up with broken screen and the touch sensitivity becomes unusable. It starts mixing inputs or the entire screen becomes with greenish brightness.
I love pixel but I am way too reluctant to go for another one as the same could happen to my next phone.
The issue seems to be with the curved edges probably
I would like to do drop test to iphone 15
This Channel deserves 1Billion Subscriber
I want this shit but my Country :(
Bro tell me a bit about its software and hardware
Got an iPhone 15 pro max and THEN watched the drop test. Needless to say I went and got a case, screen protector, and camera protector. I can’t believe Both sides and the camera came out pretty much unscathed. I could use this phone without a case!
👍
You have to watch a video on UA-cam for learning that glass shatters?
bro wearing a hoodie in 90 degree weather, madlad
lol
This helps evlevate some of my worries but not all. I just don't like bulky ass cases or bubble filled screen protectors.
We love these 🔥🔥🔥
👍
