Editorial report
Google Pixel 8 8 GB / 256 GB / Japan technical sheet
Google Pixel 8 suits buyers who want a compact phone with a bright display and a versatile camera. Its main trade-off is the 4,575 mAh battery, which holds less capacity than most phones of its time; 27 W wired charging is typical.
The 6.2-inch OLED display reaches 2,000 nits, better than most phones of its time, and its 428 ppi density is also better than most. At 187 g, the phone is lighter than most, while IP68 provides dust and water resistance. Google Tensor G3 and UFS 3.1 storage put its measured hardware performance above most phones of its time. This version has 8 GB / 128 GB, and the Pixel 8 is also sold with 8 GB / 256 GB.
The 50 MP main camera uses a 1/1.31-inch sensor, among the largest of its time, plus an f/1.7 aperture, optical image stabilization and 4K video at 60 fps. Connectivity includes 5G, Wi-Fi 7, eSIM, NFC and USB 3.2 Gen 1. Its 18 W wireless charging is among the best, and reverse charging is supported.
