Pixel 8 and 8 pro users - How has the experience been so far? (lemmy.world)

Hi Pixel 8 and 8 pro users, how has your experience with the new line of phones been so far? I'm still rocking a pixel 6 pro, and don't intend on upgrading this year; however, as a pixel nerd, I am curious about how the new phone is holding up? Has there been any noticeable improvements or compromises compared to your last device? Most importantly are you still enjoying it?

Nope, I never use contactless payments, or even google wallet so I don't even notice its gone.

I lost a couple of AI features, but I'm not that bothered about AI wallpaper generation, it was a bit of a gimmic anyway.

I had GrapheneOS on my Pixel 5 too and that saw a good battery life improvement once I finally installed GOS.
