Can't wait to preorder, I'm replacing my scratched pixel 6 pro.
- Hope you can tell us about your first impressions then! 😁
  
  Do you know if the Fingerprint sensor been improved since the P6/7?
  
  I looked for it in the leaked specs, but didn't see it mentioned anywhere.
I like those corners a lot, seems like it feels great in your hand
- It's also a bit smaller than the 7a! Its dimensions are believed to be 150.5 x 70.8 x 8.9mm (vs 152 x 72.9 x 9 mm for the Pixel 7a): https://www.androidpolice.com/google-pixel-8-could-be-lot-smaller-than-pixel-7/
  
  is it smaller than pixel 6? If so, we might get the pixel 5 glory again
I'm torn about this, would really like to replace my 6 pro but this doesn't seem like a particularly big upgrade. The modem is essentially the same garbage as in the 6. Hopefully there is a trade-in deal to make it worthwhile otherwise I might be forced to temporarily switch to a Samsung. I do like the first screen though.
If this has HDMI output over USB-C, I might be tempted to buy.
Ahhh this looks so good. Really tempted to replace my Pixel 5 with this.
