I have a FP5 with android and haven't had any major software issue (so far, over the last 1 to 1.5 years). In fact the only issue I noticed was that the 5G implementation was pretty bad at first, using up way to much battery
Well, Pixel 8 is no different to that. The hardware is great, with grapheneos its awesome. But god damn the cellular internet modem is awful. It heats up & drains the battery as well.
(With android) you can set it to prefer 4G/LTE which is enough tbh
