Fellow P 7 Pro owner here: yeah the 8 Pro is better. Still wish I'd got something else, but at least audio through the USB-C port doesn't have a buzzing caused by the clock on the chip.
In all fairness, I did recently take a 30x zoom video of an animal using the pixel, and it got compliments specifically on the zoom capability of the phone when I shared it to the people who had been there at the time.
