Reason for Sale
Narrow display width; aspect ratio
For sale is a Google pixel 8 128 GB model, purchased from Flipkart during the big billion day sales. Even after using the phone for two months I can't get used to the narrowness of the display, and the aspect ratio is unbecoming as well, hence the sale. I require a bigger/wider display.

Condition: Needless to say it's in like-new condition. Will come with everything that the device was bundled with. p
Price is non negotiable. I can trade it with an iPhone 15 (a well taken care one) and pay the extra cash.

Price is inclusive of shipping and the same will be through Indian post , or buyer's preference if shipping cost is borne by them.

Thanks.

If you think this is too narrow you will have the same problem with the iphone as they have practically the same dimensions.

My friend has it I've compared thoroughly. That small extra width is enough to make a difference further aided by its aspect ratio and much better text scaling across ios.

It pains to sell this as I bought this after long research with a plan to use it in long term.

No it's some placebo effect, maybe you are used to iOS more. The iphone has thicker bezels, so after reducing bezels the screen is EXACTLY the same size down to 0.1 mm. Pixel is just a couple mm taller, which can't be a negative when it comes to displaying content. And in the settings you find enough options for fonts, font size, and overall UI scaling. Maybe play with those a little to find your sweet spot.

I would have bought this tbh if I hadn't got the Moto Edge 50 Neo new just a couple weeks ago :banghead:.

A deal is being discussed with a TE member at a certain price. Still trying to see if I get better offers. Hence one last bump, valid for one day only.

Final price 29500
