My 300$ Motorola edge 2023 was such a better phone!

Blala82 . 4 days ago

I am so disappointed in Google . I am a pixel 1 owner and after that went to Motorola decided to come back to Google because I could get the phone free from Verizon. I wish I would have stayed with T-Mobile. At least my Motorola did everything. It said it would do this phone. Most of the features don't work properly and I don't know why. Google decided to be stupid and flip the buttons around with the volume and power. That is the dumbest thing. Why can't you just be like everyone else and make it easy for us to transition to your phone? I'm going back to Motorola screw these brand name high-end phones!

Patrick Gleason . 17 days ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

Replaced a Pixel 4a which I really liked. This is so much like the 4a that transition was almost seamless but I received some very nice upgrades. I did not want something larger than the 4a and this is nearly the same size, width essentially the same, length just slightly greater.

wonderful pixel 8.

coming from a pixel 3 to an 8 it is confusing. but the features are great and am looking forward to learning to use them.

Broken

Ashley . 1 month ago

It didn’t work. I had to return it. It wouldn’t connect to the network and I couldn’t make calls. Verizon’s solution was just use it connected to WiFi and that might help.

Intuitive. Sleek. Great Camera.

as1111 . 1 month ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I currently used an Android so I found Pixel to be very untuitive. Setting up the phone was easy...just follow steps on the screen. Transferring data from one phone to another was quick. My primary use for phones is texting, photos, and social media. I had no issues with any of those features aside from photos. I can only get 2 ratios for taking pictures. It won't allow me to take square photos which I opt for the most. Otherwise, the camera is quite nice with various editing features. Battery life is on par with my S22. Lasts a few days with minimal use or a couple days with regular use. The design itself is sleek and easy to hold. I do wish the power button was more midl8ne as that's where I'm used to using it. I also wish there was a back button vs swiping. Overall, I do plan on switching service providers soon so the Pixel will come in handy. I don't think I'll have issues getting fully used to it aside from the couple of issues outlined above.

Love mostly everything about it except it seems to run super slow switching in between apps, things loading & certain settings I set how I want keep going right back to standard settings. I love Google pixel but my previous one was way faster and didn't "glitch"

Does this phone have a hard wired SIM and also eSIM capabilities. So, can I run two phone lines, one business one personal, from the same device? Apple iPhones have these abilities, but I love your phone and totally want one. Advise and inform. Thank you.
