    I have been using the Google Pixel 8 Pro for a long-term review over the last 20 days. There is no doubt that it has an excellent design, long-lasting battery life and offers robust performance. But, as you know, Google has already launched the Google Pixel 9 series, and the Google Pixel 10 series is about to launch in India.

    This phone features a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 2400 nits. It also features a Google Tensor G3 (4 nm) chipset and runs on Android 14, but it can be updated to Android 15. Moreover, it has a 50MP triple rear camera and a 10.5MP front camera. This phone features a 5,050mAh battery capacity, supporting both 30W wired and 23W wireless charging in terms of battery

    In 2025, many of us will still be looking to buy the Google Pixel 8 Pro, so I’m here with a long-term review. In this review, I’ll cover everything about this phone, including whether you should buy it or not.

    The Google Pixel 8 Pro packs the following items inside the box:

    • Documentation

    Verdict

    Google Pixel 8 Pro continues to deliver an excellent Android experience. In terms of the rear camera, it also performed well in every condition. Design and display also perform well in their segment. While it’s not made for gaming enthusiasts and fast-charging fans. If you want a clean Android flagship that ages well and makes your daily life smarter, the Pixel 8 Pro is one of the most reliable options out there in 2025.

    There are several other options available at this price that you can consider before making a purchase: iQOO 13OnePlus 12,Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus, and Apple iPhone 16e. I also reviewed the OnePlus 12 and the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus, which you can look for a detailed review.
