If you prioritize camera quality, the Google Pixel 8 is a better choice as it has higher rated camera performance for both still photos and videos than the Motorola Edge (2021), though both devices have similar capacities for RAW output and HDR video. For battery life, the Motorola Edge (2021) has a slightly longer battery endurance. The Edge also offers a larger screen size, which may be preferable for media consumption, but the Pixel 8 has a higher refresh rate and peak brightness for its display, which can contribute to smoother and more vibrant visual experiences. Both phones have the Android operating system. However, if storage expansion or a 3.5mm headphone jack are important to you, neither phone supports these features. Give Feedback
