We’ve been shooting Google’s two newest smartphones on two continents: from the parks of Madrid to the mountains of Washington state and the streets of Seattle.
The Pixel 8 Pro gains more on the photography side, with a 50MP main camera and 48MP sensors in its ultrawide and tele cameras, it also adds manual control and the ability to capture high-res DNGs. The Pixel 8‘s upgrades are more modest, but its main camera has a faster aperture than its predecessor.
