I bought it as "good" condition but it was basically like new, so I was very happy with it. The battery thus far is exactly what I'd expect of a new phone. It arrived in minimal packaging without loads of unnecessary plastic which was good. Only downside is it didn't come with the original charging plug, but luckily I already had one from my previous pixel phone. Would definitely recommend buying a refurbished phone and will continue to do so in future.

Light signs of wear. The body may have light micro-scratches. For items with screens, the screen will have no scratches.

Device was received quickly & was in excellent condition as expected. Process was straightforward & prices competitive with any other sites I checked. Guess there's always a risk when buying 2nd hand, but this one has worked out ok for me.

Came in time for Xmas which was great as was a gift for my daughter. The phone is literally brand new condition, you would not know the difference if side by side with a new one. The battery life is excellent and lasts her well over a day.

Phone arrived in good condition and works perfectly. However, it did arrive with the language set to Japanese, which you can't change until setup is complete. That was very inconvenient and set up therefore took a long time.

Everything works great! Very glad I decided to go with a refurbished phone as it's like new and so much cheaper.

The Google Pixel 8 shows just how much a couple of years can change in the tech world—while it’s the 2023 release, it remains one of Google’s most recognisable models, packed with AI-driven features and Google's own Tensor G3 chip. Even as the Pixel 8 Pro takes centre stage now, this one punches above its weight for most everyday users.

Key features:

Release Date: October 2023
Display: 6.2-inch Actua OLED, FHD+ (1080 x 2400 px), 120Hz refresh rate
Processor: Google Tensor G3
Camera: Dual rear cameras: 50MP (wide) + 12MP (ultrawide)
Operating System: Ships with Android 14
Build Quality: Aluminium frame, Gorilla Glass Victus front and rear with IP68 water and dust resistance
Connectivity: 5G ready, Wi-Fi 7 support, USB-C

Who is this for?

The Google Pixel 8 is spot on for Android purists and anyone after solid, fuss-free performance with proper Google smarts. Whether you’re a student who wants reliable software updates, or a commuter who fancies a compact phone that isn’t a battery brick, this covers the basics—and a bit more. Compared with the Pixel 7, you get a slightly better screen and more AI software features (but the Pixel 8 Pro is still the right choice if you need top-notch camera hardware).

Pros & Cons:

Pros	Cons
Bright, smooth 120Hz OLED display for comfortable viewing (finally, on the smaller Pixel).	No telephoto camera—digital zoom only for any close-ups.
Clean, up-to-date Android experience straight from Google.	Not the best choice for gaming—the chipset handles daily tasks, but Pixel still isn’t a gaming beast.
IP68 dust and water resistance gives you a little less to worry about when the British weather does its thing.	No expandable storage (still, after all these years... Google’s gonna Google).
