Google Pixel 8: Brighter Display, Pro Comparison, and AI-enhanced Cameras

The Pixel 8's display is even brighter than Google initially claimed, reaching a fullscreen brightness of 1,600 nits, 200 nits higher than the company's stated peak brightness. This extra brightness is achieved by turning on the "Smooth Display" option, which increases the panel's brightness. The Pixel 8's display upgrade, branded as "Actua," is a significant improvement over previous models and is particularly impressive on the smaller Pixel 8.
