If you have been a victim of bullying due to your device’s impact on making the group chat’s texts green, I saw hold your ground. It’s Apples fault for doing that anyway.

What Can the Google Pixel 8 and 8 Pro Do?
The Google Pixel 8 and Google Pixel 8 Pro were officially released in October 2023, so they are not even a year old yet. It uses the powerful Google Tensor G3 chip which has been custom designed with Google AI. This helps with avoiding unwanted calls, connecting in new languages, and allows for cutting-edge photo and video features.
The fully upgraded camera has advanced image processing, resulting in vivid colors and high detail. Macro Focus — the ability to create spectacular up close images of small subjects — was toted to be newly supported on the new iPhone yesterday. Well guess what. The Google Pixel 8 and 8 Pro already had that first.
