Lisa has the absolute best t-shirt collection in the tech reviewer space on YouTube in my opinion but this pink shirt 👚 will always be my favorite!❤🤓

I just went from a pixel 3a to the 8a, nice phone but it's noticeably chunkier, on the fingerprint reader it misses more than the 3a but it's not that bad.

Your video embedded advertisements really suck...and then they take up some 20% of the entire video time.

Hands down the best place to get good reviews.
Thanks!

Question: there's quite a few offers going on in Europe which make the Galaxy S24 practically the same price as the Pixel 8a. I imagine the Galaxy s24 wins, even with the exynos cpu we get here?

Does anyone know if you're able or have the option to change the icon shape of the apps on the pixel phones. Does it have the developer option within settings. I'm thinking of having a google pixel as my next phone coming from a Samsung Galaxy A34 and i think the round app icons look really ugly and absolutely unattractive.

Also i have been told that using a Google Pixel is like using an iPhone. Is this true becuase i was told its to do with the style of the phone in terms of the gesture navigations. But that could be said about any phone like a Samsung for example that has navigation buttons and

Thanks for the video!

I am considering switching from Pixel 3 to Pixel 8A or Pixel 8.
The UK Google Store offers a nice amount of money for the Pixel 3 trade-in option.
As a result, I could not make up my mind between 2 options:
Pixel 8A 128GB for 300 GBP?
Pixel 8 128GB + Pixel Watch gen.1 for 500 GBP?
I haven't used the smartwatches before due to the lack of need. But still, it might be a curious experience.

What would you choose?

I picked this one up for $400
I would never spend more than $400 on a pixel.
For me at least this def isn't bright outside in the summer time I can barely see it. Gotta use this in a dark room at all times. The battery life is kinda trash also tbh but it is what it is

Real price range of this phone: 200/250€

Great video, really nice locations to show off the camera :)

Some of these comments (only 17 so far) are wild.

Love the reviews Lisa [and for many years], but the background on your headshots is so disappointing. Nothing wrong with what you had before. Grey? Really? Anyway, you're the best.

Great shirt Lisa! Thanks for the great another great review.

[happypelon]

LOL . I LOVE THE SHIRT CANT STOP LAUGHING.

TY Lisa, been watching your reviews for years now. The issue I find with the Pixel phones is it feels like you are losing a lot of options/control while also getting a mid device. I was on a Note20U and bought the P6 fully expecting to switch. I couldn't. Software bugs, lack of options, updates that took 20-40 minutes, dropped signal, odd cell tower behavior... So when Google did the P6>P7 upgrade for like $30, I went for it thinking these would be resolved, but nothing was. One UI seems to add so much control to your phone and you don't miss out because Google's ecosphere is available right along with Samsung's.

I don't like feeling trapped into one manufacturer, but Samsung is just making progress while Google and Apple seem to be regressing. Google trying to tout "clean" Android as a benefit is actually wrong, because it is either their way or nothing. I also have a Thinkphone and Lenovo/Motorola have put in a lot of work to let the owner control their phone. (BTW, IMO the Thinkphone is by far the best budget phone being sold and no one knows about it).

Absolutely brilliant review the best I've seen and it's the first time I've seen a women do a phone review. Well done Lisa!!!😊

[Konuvis]

I have a OnePlus right now but it's starting to really do some weird things so I'm going to have to upgrade soon. Still undecided between Pixel and OnePlus. I refuse to pay $1, 000+
Also, RIP LG

6.1 screen for 500? there are better phones out there.

Lisa, would your mother use a google phone if you called her more often?
