The ZuPick verdict

3.1out of 5

ConsiderBest at camera, weakest at performance.

The Pixel 8 Pro gets the flagship essentials right and stands out for long software support, a bright display and a genuinely useful 5x zoom camera. The trade-off is that performance and charging are not as strong as several rivals at similar money.

Based on specs, expert reviews and owner discussions.

Performance2.5

It scores about 963,000 on AnTuTu, which is well below what most phones around this price deliver. The seven-year update promise is outstanding, but raw speed and UFS 3.1 storage keep it from feeling top-tier for the money.

Camera3.6

This is a well-rounded camera system with a 50 MP main camera, a high-resolution 48 MP ultrawide and a proper 5x optical telephoto. The weaker point is video, where 4K capture is fine but not as advanced as the best phones in this range.

Display3.1

The 6.7-inch OLED display is smooth at 120 Hz and 2400 nits peak brightness helps outdoors. Sharpness is good, but this resolution sits below the QHD+ panels that still separate the best screens in this class.

Battery3.2

The 5050 mAh battery is a solid size and wireless charging is a big plus at this price. Real-world endurance of 11h 33m is only decent for a flagship, and 30W wired charging feels slow next to faster premium Android rivals.

Value3.4

At ₹79999, it sits in a competitive part of the flagship market rather than the ultra-premium end. The long software support and strong camera hardware help, but the slower charging and lower raw performance stop it from being a clear value leader.

Pros & cons

What’s good

Excellent zoom setup

The 5x optical telephoto is a real flagship feature, not a token camera add-on. It gives you much better reach for portraits, events and distant subjects than the 3x zoom many rivals stop at.

Long software support

Seven years of OS updates is one of the best promises you can get on any phone. That matters at this price because it keeps the phone secure and current for far longer than most Android alternatives.

Strong display quality

The 6.7-inch OLED panel runs at 120 Hz and reaches 2400 nits peak brightness. It feels smooth in daily use and stays comfortable to read outdoors.

Complete flagship basics

You get IP68 water resistance, wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, stereo speakers and Wi-Fi 7. Nothing important feels stripped out for the price.

What’s not

Weak raw performance

It scores about 963,000 on AnTuTu, which is low for this price. Everyday use is still smooth, but buyers focused on gaming or long-term speed will find stronger options nearby.

Slow wired charging

30W charging is behind what many premium Android phones offer. A full top-up takes noticeably longer than the faster-charging rivals in this range.

Video spec trails rivals

4K recording is fine for most people, but many phones at this level offer 4K60 or even 8K. If video capture is a priority, this is one of the clearer compromises.

Storage speed behind best

UFS 3.1 storage is still quick in daily use, but the fastest flagships now move to newer storage standards. App installs and large file handling are not as class-leading as the price suggests.

Day one Pixel 8 Pro owner here. Thought I’d share my experience, after almost 8 months of ownership.

r/GooglePixelan owner

The Battery life on the device was mediocre or subpar in the first few days. I don't know if it was the very old Oppo 30W charger I was using or just how the phone normally works out of the box.

r/GooglePixelan owner

The battery life is terrible, barely lasting a day even with battery saver on.

r/GooglePixelan owner

My wife says calls sometimes go straight to voicemail, meaning she literally cannot reach me in the event of an emergency. And when I can receive calls, the call quality is sometimes so bad that I can barely understand what she's saying.
