Pixel 8 pro experience (lemmy.world)

How is everyone enjoying their Pixel 8 experience?

Around the black Friday sales time, I tentatively switched from a Pixel 6 pro to an 8 pro. I was pretty nervous about the switch as my experience with the 6 pro was good but not great (specifically the battery life) and I didn't want the same to happen with the 8 pro. However, a few months on and I can say that my experience has been outstanding.

I never have to worry about battery life; the screen is bright and amazing; the face unlock is reliable and fast; and, it just feels like a more premium build compared to my 6 pro.

If you made the switch, what's your experience been like?

(Edit: P.S. I know I asked this question at launch in this sub but I love hearing long-term reviews 😅)

Yeah that was something that I also noticed too with the colour temperature. However, I tend to make my photos cooler. So for me it's something that I don't mind, but there have definitely been situations where it's even too cool for me, so I can understand that's frustration.

I wish there was a setting where I could tweak it. I guess I'll just have to use filters on individual photos.
