I'm coming from a 3yr-old 12 Mini w/Airpod Pro's to an 8 w/Buds, only because they seem to be giving a crazy £360 trade-in value!! Getting it this afternoon betwwen 15:11-16:11, 128GB in Hazel.

Love how these sort of threads just turn into waiting for despatch emails like it's going to speed it up.

That case is really nice- wish they did it for the 7 pro!

That new camera lens really does look massive!

Pixel 8 feels great in the hands. Marginally bigger than the pixel 5 and certainly more snappy

It seems to colour shift in the light which is nice.

The 8 Pro really reminds me of the 4 XL, thought might be because I also had orange Google case.

Mines due between 2 and 3 but I won't get my hands on it until later. Be curious to know how signal strength compares

Delivered to work, earlier this morning, and I'm out the office all day

Anyone got the bellroy case ?

Mines all working good. Mostly setup now. Had a few issues with esim, but that was my fault. Enjoying it so far

Which coloured watch do you all think would be the easiest to sell?

Dangerous · 11 Oct 2023 at 12:40

Had one for my 7, will be picking up one for the 8 when my store credit is applied. I really like the feel of their cases and they've improved the 8 version.

The one for the 7 had an open bottom of the case which I hate, the 8 one appears to wrap all the way around.

And there she is

I caved and ordered. The 7 years updates, flat screen, software experience all sold it to me over the S23. Still can't believe phones are so expensive these days it's hard to say but the pixel seems good value Vs the competition. Hopefully the battery is still in good nick at 7 years.
My OnePlus 7 Pro is at 79% battery health.
