It's easy, get the OnePlus 12. there is no Pixel 8 Plus

Oops. I thought got plus model. Thanks. Seems like oneplus 12 is good.

if you can get the Oneplus 12 at $700 ish. then quite no brainer.

Pixel 8 pro still selling around 1k price afer discount. lowest i've seen is $890 or so.

One plus 12 or the pro?

One plus 12 shoppee have 669.

The example he provided as magic eraser, which has always worked offline for Pixels. Does it not work offline for iOS ? Serious question, I have never ever used a iPhone before

Everybody has harped on the fact that Google Tensor is an inferior chip, so why the surprise when it works faster on iPhone ?

Although Google Tensor not so good, but their own hardware and software should make their apps more solid, smooth and fast. that's why the Pixel experience is important. the same app on competitors' phones make their own products look bad leh

bug, sometimes the mouse cursor appears smack in the center of the screen, and alarm icon appears @ the top when no alarm is set

I concur as well because that's the synergy you can see on Apple devices where they have total control of both hardware and software. However, as we all suspect, Tensor isn't a 100% google custom chip in the same vein as Apple silicon. If rumours are true, we can all judge again when Pixel 10 eventually releases. Apple also didn't have their truly custom chip until A4.

Yah, agree sia. Apple devices really power because they control both hardware and software. when Pixel 10 series come out, we see how it is again. Apple also took until A4 to get their own chip, so Google maybe same same

Just got the pixel 8 pro 2 days ago. Camera is better than my old LG v50 but besides that I still prefer the LG, too used to it after using for 4 years.

Why didn't you wait a bit for pixel 9 pro?

The LG was giving issues already, so no choice had to get new phone quickly. Also think I'll wait for the pixel 10 with the TSMC made chip before next upgrade.. Hopefully can get at the same $1k-ish price

Lowest I’ve seen is around $890 for local set on Shopee/lazada. Happened during 7/7 sales.
