Pixel 8 Pro First Impressions and Some Features I Like
/My Best Pixel 8 Pro Features & Insights
I am in my 1st week using a Pixel 8 Pro and I want to share some of the best features and my impressions. This is not a review or anything of that nature, but just some insights I wanted to share.
The Pixel 8 Pro is 6.7 inches with rounded corners – just the right size to fit comfortably in my hand. The back is matte glass but feels like non-slippery plastic. I like it a lot.
To unlock my Pixel 8 Pro, I turned on both facial recognition and fingerprint unlock features. They both work seamlessly and save time, as I don’t need to keep trying to unlock it.
The Pixel 8 Pro camera system was redesigned and updated. I am a content creator and the main reason to buy a Pixel 8 Pro was its camera system. 5X optical zoom, GoPro-like image stabilization for video, 10-bit-HDR video, and the Audio Magic Eraser are some features worth mentioning.
Another video feature designed for content creators is coming in December: Video Boost. This feature automatically adjusts color, lighting, stabilization, and graininess, and Night Sight Video to make professional-quality videos from a smartphone.
The Pixel 8 Pro also offers enhanced macro capabilities in macro mode, which is a plus point for photography lovers who love macro photos. I have been testing lots of macro shots and the quality is mind-blowing for a smartphone.
Another unnecessary but fun feature l like is the to check the temperature of anything. I have been using this a lot just to show this feature to my friends.
There are many other features, but the ones I mentioned above are some of the most unique ones I can think of right now. I will link my Pixel Playlist below if you are interested in watching the videos:
