⁴ Estimate of typical capacity based on testing and expected cell behaviour.

⁵ Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 8: For '24-hour': Estimated battery life is based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and the use of other features. Battery testing conducted on a major operator network. For 'Up to 72 hours': Estimated battery life is based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and the use of limited other features that are default in Extreme Battery Saver mode (which disables various features including 5G connectivity). Battery testing conducted on a major operator network. For both claims: Battery testing was conducted in California in mid-2023 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings except that, for the 'up to 72-hour' claim only, Extreme Battery Saver mode was enabled. Battery life depends upon many factors and the use of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower.

Pixel 8a: For 'over 24 hours': Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of other features. Average battery life during testing was at least 31 hours. For 'Up to 72 hours': Estimated battery life based on testing using a median Pixel user battery usage profile across a mix of talk, data, standby and use of limited other features that are default in Extreme Battery Saver mode (which disables various features including 5G connectivity). For both claims: Battery testing conducted on a major US operator network in California in late 2023 on pre-production hardware and software using default settings, except that, for the 'up to 72 hours' claim only, Extreme Battery Saver mode was enabled. Tests began with phones fully charged. Battery life depends upon many factors and usage of certain features will decrease battery life. Actual battery life may be lower.

⁶ Storage specifications refer to capacity before formatting. Actual formatted capacity will be less.

⁷ Pixel 8 Pro or Pixel 8a: Not available for all cameras, apps or modes.
