Pixel 8 Brings Subtle Upgrades Over Pixel 7 With Improved Design, AI Camera Tricks
-
New Pixel 8 has improved design, display, cameras vs Pixel 7. Higher $699 starting price but seems worth it.
-
"Best Take" AI feature works well to get best facial expressions from photo burst. Raises ethical concerns about manipulation.
-
"Magic Eraser" editing tool now more powerful but can look unnatural. Fun to use but easy to spot edits.
-
New macro mode, brighter screen, slimmer bezels all welcome upgrades. Performance smooth despite lack of raw power.
-
Overall an excellent all-round phone for the price with unique AI photo tricks, though not a huge upgrade over Pixel 7.
