The Pixel 8 originally launched with three colors options — Hazel, Obsidian, and Rose. Both Hazel and Obsidian colors remain unchanged from the previous-gen Pixel 7 phones, and the Rose colorway is picked above, in case you want to see how it looks in the real world.

Google has also launched the new phone in a new 'Mint' colorway, which is unlike anything that's currently available on the market.

The Pro model was also launched in three colors — Bay, Obsidian, and Porcelain. Obsidian is the standard black variant that also appears on the Pixel 8, whereas both Porcelain and Bay are both new colors that make the Pro model a standout. The new Mint colorway also makes an appearance on the Pixel 8 Pro model as well, so I'd say there are some pretty good options overall.

What color are you going for?

With the Pixel 8 line, Google isn't going for any particularly ostentatious colors this time around, but there are certainly some nice options if you like a little splash of color on your smartphone, like the Pixel 8 Pro's Bay option. Also, remember that you can always buy a fresh case for your Pixel phones in case you don't like any of the available color options, so don't be afraid to experiment and buy something unique.
