Pixel for video recording? (lemmy.ml)

Some say older pixels (4 or 5) have longer battery life and no (or minimal?) overheat issues when compared to Tensor chip devices. Is this true?

I haven't tried any pixels yet and I'm planning to buy one even if its one of the old Snapdragon phones if that is recommended. I plan to use the device for long duration of video recording. So something with good camera and doesn't overheat.

Yeah totally understand about battery life. I think I'd choose an older pixel only if its really cheap and just serve as a backup. How's your 9 doing btw?

The 8 pro is going well so far, barring the weird touch issues at the very corner edges of the screen. Haven't had any other problems with it.

Husband just bought a 9 pro, but it's too early to tell, honestly. He seems to like it quite a lot though.
