TBH the most interesting feature to me is screen brightness. I have a pixel 6 and it's not TERRIBLE in bright sunlight but it is... not great. Not sure that quite gets me interested in upgrading though. Cameras seem better I guess - have to wait on reviews for that.

I pretty much just go from security update to security update. My 6 is working fine right now and I have no reason to abandon ship for the 8.

My wife, on the other hand, has a 5 which falls out of support this month. So, she's getting the 8.

Do you have adaptive brightness enabled? For the longest time I did not realize that the screen doesn't achieve max brightness despite the brightness slider manually set to the max unless it's enabled.

I have a P6P and the general brightness is awful. My old P5 is brighter, which I still own.

The Android 14 I just installed on the P6P massively improved the dark light performance of the camera though. Not tried it on the P5

That said it's not worth me upgrading - I'll wait til the P9P.
