The Pixel 8 is the more affordable option, starting at $699, which means Google is cutting some corners here and there. That starts with the size of the screen: The regular Pixel 8 sports a 6.2-inch screen, similar in size to the standard iPhone 15 Pro. The Pixel 8 Pro, which starts at $999, is 6.7 inches.
This difference in display size also means a difference in resolution. The regular Pixel 8 packs a 1080 x 2400 pixel display with a 20:9 ratio at 428 PPI. The Pixel 8 Pro, on the other hand, sports a higher resolution of 1344 x 2992, in a 20:9 ratio at 489 PPI. Both displays look great, but if you prefer a larger screen, the Pixel 8 Pro is going to be your best choice.
