For 2023, the $999 Pixel 8 Pro is learning even harder into its camera prowess with enhanced video features, an upgraded Magic Editor and more.
, so to make up for that increased price Google added a number of enhanced photo and video features, a new temperature sensor and seven years of software support.
Available in three colors , the Pixel 8 Pro sports a very similar design to last year's model with a large camera bar in back and polished metal sides. That said, Google has made some smaller changes, including adding a matte texture on the phone's Gorilla Glass Victus 2 rear panel. The display is flatter as well, and has less rounded edges. And, just like before, the phone packs an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, allowing it to withstand submersion in up to 5.
However, between its upgraded sensors and a range of improved photo and video features, it's the Pixel 8 Pro's cameras that are making the biggest leap. For the first time on a Pixel phone, users will be able to use Google's Night Sight Mode when recording videos. Meanwhile, the new Best Take feature makes it possible to choose the best reactions among a series of images so that every person in the shot is smiling.
On the inside, the Pixel 8 Pro is powered by Google's Tensor G3 chip along with 12GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage. Google claims the G3's improved performance helps support new abilities like enhanced spam filtering for the Pixel's Call Screener feature, Audio Magic Eraser and better image processing.
