To Pixel 8/8 Pro owners here, is this true? Are you really unable to install Geekbench and 3D Mark from Google Play? What about a regular install using those apps’ APKs?

EDIT: some owners now report that they can install those apps, so it could have been just a Play Store issue and not a deliberate block from Google’s side.

    That would certainly help explain the immediate deep discounting on the 8 and 8 Pro - it seems Google is aware they have a mediocre and potentially-problematic phone generation on their hands.
