Pixel 8 and 8 pro users - How has the experience been so far? (self.googlepixel)

Hi Pixel 8 and 8 pro users, how has your experience with the new line of phones been so far? I'm still rocking a pixel 6 pro, and don't intend on upgrading this year; however, as a pixel nerd, I am curious about how the new phone is holding up? Has there been any noticeable improvements or compromises compared to your last device? Most importantly are you still enjoying it?

I just came back from a children's birthday party. Naturally, I made sure to charge the phone as much as possible on the drive to the indoor playground. I took and sent a sizable number of pictures and videos, and played some Spotify over the car system on the way home. Nothing else, not even navigation.

5.5h on mobile, 1.5h total SoT - the battery went from 92% to 29% during that time. This is a great "half-a-day" phone, but, sadly, useless for any significantly longer outings.
