Google Pixel 7 Pro vs Google Pixel 8
Our Verdict: The Pixel 8 is the follow-up to the Pixel 7 Pro a year later, so the two are close. The 7 Pro has the bigger battery of the two, 5000mAh against 4575mAh, which should mean longer between charges in day-to-day use, and the 7 Pro has the stronger screen, bigger at 6.7" against 6.2" and sharper at 513 PPI. The 8 5G is the lighter phone at 0g against 212g, and only the 8 5G has a water-resistance rating (IP68); the 7 Pro has none. The 8 5G is worth the extra if the updates matter to you, but the 7 Pro is a good buy if the price has dropped.
Buying outright, the 8 5G starts at £195 SIM-free.
