Google Pixel 8 Pro Repair

Announced on October 4th, 2023, the Pixel 8 Pro continues Google's flagship smartphone line with updates to its camera and processor. With only minor changes to the wide and telephoto cameras, and an upgraded ultrawide camera, the new Google AI integration allows for higher quality photos for smaller objects, a.k.a. "Macro Focus," and more options for in-app editing. The Google AI is possible via the new Google Tensor G3 processor, which has improved performance and efficiency compared to the Tensor G2.

The Google Pixel 8 Pro starts at $999 USD.

The Pixel 8 Pro can be identified primarily by its model number: G1MNW, GC3VE, or GE9DP, which can be accessed by looking at its original box or navigating to "Settings" >"About phone" and then scrolling down and tapping on "Model & Hardware."

If you lost the original box or can't access the Settings app on your device, you can also identify the Pixel 8 Pro by its signature camera bar that protrudes as a wide strip along the top edge of the back cover. Compared to the Pixel 7 Pro that had one oval-shaped camera cutout alongside a circular cutout, the Pixel 8 Pro's camera cutout is a single ellipse.

The Pixel 8 Pro comes in three colors: Bay, Obsidian, and Porcelain, and Mint.
