S23 vs Pixel 8?
Hi everyone,
Currently looking at either a Pixel 8 or a S23 as a replacement for my Zenfone 8 that is slowly becoming a hindrence due to (primarily) the battery. I would replace it, but as it costs a lot to do that here and I have needs for a non-compromised water protection DIY feels like a dangerous option.
So S23 vs Pixel 8, what would you guys recommend assuming I can get either for the same price?
I like the S23 hardware a bit better on paper, but as Pixel phones generally are very flashable my anti-Google sentiments might (ironically) push me there.
I would get a fairphone 5 for the hot-swappable battery etc if they weren't so expensive for what you get, and as Im buying second hand reuse is better for the environment anyways.

Ahaha I have the same problem. https://sh.itjust.works/post/13148131
Another thing is that the pixel8a has been leaked and that it solves the biggest Pixel 8 issue: The camera bar is thinner.
Great minds think alike! (Or the availability of compact phones with more than 2 years of software updates is unfortunately small)
Ah cool, waiting for the pixel 8a might be an interesting option as well assuming they release it within a couple of months
I'm still pissed I'm locked into pixel pass paying for my 6a and can't unsubscribe from it without paying off the phone. I don't want YouTube music or premium anymore or play pass, but I'm stuck until 2025 or the phone is paid off and Google discontinued pixel pass altogether so it's not like I'm getting a new phone when that period is up...I really feel like there should've been lawsuits and fines for what they did with pixel pass. My point being, pixels are great, Google services are terrible, if you can get a Samsung get a Samsung.
