Pixel 8 vs. Pixel 8 Pro: Design
The Pixel 8 Pro has an additional sensor that's the biggest draw of this year’s line: a brand spankin’ new temperature reader. Google placed it underneath the flash on its signature camera visor (a design ethos that can be found on the Pixel 8, too).

You’ll also notice that the Pixel 8 Pro has a wider camera module compared to the Pixel 8. This is because it has a telephoto camera – a lens that the Pixel 8 doesn’t have. It’s also worth noting that the Pixel 8 Pro’s camera module appears to have a different shape compared to its predecessor. The Pixel 7 Pro placed its lenses in a pill-and-hole configuration. This year, however, the cameras are placed inside an elongated oval.

The Pixel 8 Pro is also much larger with a 6.7-inch display. The Pixel 8, on the other hand, has a smaller 6.2-inch panel. Interestingly, however, the Pixel 8 Pro is slimmer than the Pixel 8, but the former is heavier.

Both phones come in different colors:
Pixel 8:Hazel, Rose, and Obsidian
Pixel 8 Pro:Bay, Porcelain, and Obsidian
Both are rated for IP68 water resistance, which means they're dust-tight and can handle water submersion of 4.9 feet for up to 30 minutes.
Pixel 8 vs. Pixel 8 Pro: Display
As mentioned, the Pixel 8’s 6.2-inch display is smaller than the Pixel 8 Pro’s 6.7-inch screen. As such, if you want a larger phone, go for the Pixel 8 Pro. You’ll get a better pixel count out of the Pixel 8 Pro, too.

Pixel 8 Pro: 1,384 x 2,992 pixels, LTPO OLED, 489 PPI
According to the figures posted above, you'll get a sharper, more detailed display on the Pixel 8 Pro compared to its cheaper sibling.
You should also know that the Pixel 8 Pro’s variable refresh rate has a wider range (1Hz to 120Hz) compared to the Pixel 8 (60Hz to 120Hz). This means that when your phone is sitting idle, or when you’re engaging in a slower-paced task, the Pixel 8 Pro can drop all the way down to a 1Hz refresh rate, which should help to preserve battery life (as opposed to the screen unnecessarily refreshing at a rate of 60 times per second).
Both phones, however, can climb up to a 120Hz refresh rate when it’s required (e.g., mobile gaming). Navigating and scrolling on the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro should feel smooth and zippy.
The Pixel 8 Pro has a brighter display; it can skyrocket to a peak luminance of 2,400 nits. The Pixel 8 can climb to 2,000 nits, which is pretty bright, too. And finally, the Pixel 8 Pro is equipped with a more durable display compared to its lower-priced sibling (i.e., Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 vs. Corning Gorilla Glass Victus).

Both the Pixel 8 and the Pixel 8 Pro have the same wide camera. Here are the specs:

Pixel 8 vs. Pixel 8 Pro: Chipset
Group holding Google Pixel 8 Pro Credit: Google Both the Pixel 8 and the Pixel 8 Pro come with Google’s new Tensor G3 chip as well as the Titan M2 security coprocessor. The chip facilitates Google’s AI-powered features, and according to the search-engine tech giant, it can handle calculations 10x more complex than the Pixel 6 line. Thanks to the Tensor G3 chip, Google claims the Pixel 8 and the Pixel 8 Pro can deliver more groundbreaking, cutting-edge photo and audio perks.
For example, Tensor G3 is the engine behind Audio Magic Eraser, a new feature that lets you remove extraneous, unwanted sounds from videos.
Tensor G3 also helps with Pixel’s Call Screen feature, which reportedly does a better job of weeding out spam calls. The new chip also improves Clear Calling, which delivers high-definition phone calls even if you're in a noisy area.
Google is also offering free Google One VPN, end-to-end security, and seven years of OS updates for the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro.

The Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro, according to Google, reportedly last 24 hours, according to a mixed usage profile of talk, data, standby, and more. I’m not sure I believe that claim, so we’ll have to put both phones to the test ourselves.
