Google Pixel 8 5G,US Version, 128 GB Obsidian - Unlocked (Renewed)

I bought this on Black Friday to replace my ancient Pixel 3, and WOW!Such a huge improvement.I got it refurbished to save a buck, and it's just like new.Great functionality, great value.

The phone was fine, but after 2.5 months of ownership it became hard to type. The best way to describe the issue is like what happens when you have big fingers, except my typing has been perfect up to that moment. I would restart the phone and the issue would go away, but then randomly come back.I contacted vendor DNCL-TECHZONE and they agreed to my return. They even agreed to a later return as I was traveling back from from abroad.However, at the moment the vendor received the phone back, they started claiming that the phone had no issues in their short testing, which may have not been enough to experience what I was experiencing.The vendor DNCL-TECHZONE did not get back to me to try to understand more about what was failing, they immediately said they'd be keeping a 20% restocking fee, which in their return policies is due to "abusing the return process", and if "if the customer misrepresents the condition of the product".This vendor is not offering me a solution. This vendor DNCL-TECHZONE is actually putting the burden of their product not working as expected on me, making me pay for a restocking fee on a phone that didn't operate properly when I had it, and potentially selling it to the next person who will run into these issues.I believe this is not the way to treat a customer. I have an open case with Amazon and will update this review as the case evolves.

I ordered two of these to load GrapheneOS on. Both are still working great and batteries still hold a charge for the day. Phone is solid. Speed and photos are good. I have dropped 20+ times on pavement and gravel. Paired with a Spigen case, it still looks like new yet.

If you are looking for a phone that will be suitable for Graphene OS, at this time of writing this is a good option. The one I bought was from DNCL-TECHZONE specifically.The phone was fully carrier unlocked and had an unlockable bootloader. I confirmed that it worked with verizon and tmobile, did not test ATNT but I would assume this works well.Phone also come with a screen protector preapplied which is nice to see.Overall a good pick if you are looking to use Graphene OS. Would recommend.

Having played around with it for a few days, I am very happy with my purchase. The battery life is amazing and despite seeing some fairly heavy use throughout the day, I find I can use my phone the entire day before having to charge it and that is without battery saver on. It also charges fairly quickly, which is another major plus.The camera and video quality are equally amazing. It has a good amount of memory that I am satisfied with. I listen to audiobooks, which take up a good chunk of memory, and I have a lot of downloaded music yet I have plenty of space to spare when all is said and done.My only gripe with the phone is that instead of a back button (to go to a previous page), you have to swipe the screen to the left or right. Annoyingly, sometimes you will accidentally go backwards or forwards when you don't mean to.Aside from that, I would highly recommend this one or the Pro 8, if you want a bigger screen.

I bought a Pixel 8 in good condition. The front and back looks good, what I was expecting. The sides, frame and camera bar has several scratches and pit looking spots that can be seen farer than 12 inches. I would say its closer to acceptable condition than good condition. I will put a case on it and use it. I have only had it 24 hours and everything working as it should.

Do not buy this. This says its unlocked but it is not. The boot loader is locked to xfinity. Trying to contact xfinity is worse than dealing with cancer. I want to request a refund for my time that i wasted trying to figure this out.

Fast shipper, exactly as advertised. Device was in perfect condition and I was able to activate it in five minutes on the network of my choice. Functioning flawlessly.Thanks!
