Pixel 7 pro user here! Absolutely agree with the all points you've said here. I've noticed in the last few months it's producing more heat and less battery life. I also have issues with 4g/5g connectivity where I lose signal where I wouldn't with other phones - iphone 14 pro max and galaxy z fold 3. I do think they could allow more customisation to hide the gesture hint bar, hide the google search bar and put apps there and to be able to move at a glance completely

Started with Google using the 2XL. Probably the best phone I've ever used. And this is coming from a long time Samsung user. Dating back from the epic 4g to the G S8. Upgraded to the 4XL and now I'm using the 7pro. I can't say facial recognition is better with the 7pro. The 4XL facial recognition was noticeably better in low lit areas and when wearing sunglasses. I am not overly impressed with using the 7pro, tbh. I am gonna sit back and wait it out for the P10/G5 chipset. In 2025, supposedly Google is planning to drop Samsung foundry in favor of TSMC. Google will have complete control with development and architecture with the new SoC. They were planning to launch this with the G4 but somehow got delayed. Hoping they follow through with their plans for the P10 🙏🏻

[@chettiarvivian]

Just upgraded fro the Pixel 2XL which i bought in 2018 to the Pixel 7 pro right now. Agree to the fact that the Pixel 2Xl is one of the best phones ever made. The only reason i had to upgrade is because the charging port started overheating and I can't find the original receipt needed for a replacement from an authorised service centre. Looking forward to the 7 pro experience.

[@drakoran]

My pixel is starting to heat doing basically nothing. The whole back is 40 degrees and it isn't really pleasant in this heat. I don't like the curved edges and the lack of power, but other than that I really love this phone. Between a very light and neat android and amazing photos I can't really complain. I will probably switch to the 8 if this heating problems isn't fixed by then.

[@Garythefireman66]

I've had a Nexus or Pixel since the Nexus 6. My biggest issue with my P7P has been Google's inability to drop every update on the 1st Monday of the month, and compete radio silence from Google as to when the update will actually start to roll out. I love all of the features you get from owning a Pixel, but I'd like to see some consistency when it comes to monthly updates.

[@deepanshusood6467]

I don't get why you want the security update on the first Monday of the month. Google has been pushing updates at a pace where they are actually trying to rectify the issues they find in the device. Little haste could hamper the experience, I'd rather have a stable update than a finicky one even if it takes them time to push it.

[@ESCO2]

@@deepanshusood6467 I am going to back up your comment here. I don't think people understand how other OEM's take weeks, months or even years to provide a security update/ Android version update. This has always been a problem and although it has gotten better other the last couple of years, it's very much real, so waiting a few days or weeks at the beginning of the month ... You have high expectations lol

When it comes to Android, Pixel is king. Pixel phones are original, unadulterated, just the way Google had intended Android to be used. The camera, software experience, smoothness, security and safety in Pixel phones is unmatched in Android world. No other OEM can ever or will ever be equivalent to Google Pixel. I use it for my work on a daily basis and it does pretty well. Combined with Google buds pro, it keeps me going all through the day seamlessly. Very happy with Pixel, and my next phone will also be a Pixel.

Hey thanks for the long-term review of the Pixel 7 pro which I had and I really liked all the special features that come with Pixel and the software and the optics My problem was here in Southern California I use my phone a lot outside and it just got hot and there was a couple times where the the screen dimmed on me I guess the phone was getting hot and so it just I couldn't raise the brightness at all it just would stay at this really low so it wasn't usable at that point and so I ended up selling it and getting a Galaxy s23 Plus in the used market and I have to say the hardware on the Samsung is definitely better especially the screen and doesn't get warm in the battery life is a ton better on this phone in the Pixel 7 pro though I am going to look at the Pixel 8 pro but I haven't decided maybe it's just better to wait for 2025 when TMZ makes the chips in Taiwan I don't know anyway it's a great phone as long as you don't using it outside in the heat.

I've thought about moving away from my 7 Pro but I've come to really use and enjoy so much of the exclusive Pixel features like Call Screening and extremely fast and accurate Text to Speech recognition and little things like the ability to speak to answer and decline calls which is really handy when you're phone isnt within hands reach and yoi can't see who's calling. That's before we talk about the camera and the macro ability that's been a joy when coming from my Pixel 6. Also the haptic feedback motor is the best I've experienced so far. I'm super excited for the 8 Pro though mostly for the rumors of the G3 being a big step up from the G2.

And the camera is great for photography, i was never really into that type of thing until i got my pixel. And then the pixels curved screen is a massive weak point because i had my phone in my back pocket (i have a numbus 9 phone case) and i was climbing into a truck and it cracked from the edge and spiderwebbed all the way from top to bottom. But the cracks arnt all too noticable when on darker themes.

I like the Pixel 3a XL. It has the fingerprint thing on the back, its lighter, the camera is great, and battery works really well. The 7 Pro which I have is heavy, uses a lot of battery, the face reader and fingerprint dont always work the way they should. Plus who needs all these features in a phone? They should bring back the 3a XL as a classic model for those that do not want to spend all the cash for the latest Pixel model.

[@StandardGabriel375]

4:10 Yeah gaming doesnt make the Pixel 7 happy. Multiple apps open combined with a case, itll over heat in warm weather. Then if you try to charge it oudoors good luck. Gotta go old school and just turn it off.

[@andyH_England]

It is a misnomer that you get fewer OS updates on the Pixel 7 line. That will end on Android 16. The S22 released in the same year was on Android 12, got four upgrades, and ends on Android 16. So there is no difference just when phones are released in the yearly cycle. I agree about thermals, all smartphones heat up due to no active cooling, but Samsung-made chips are the worst. But to be fair, the Pixel 7 was released in the year Samsung released the Exynos S22U and that was even worse with thermals, from my year with it. So although truthful, it is only in 2023 that Samsung (main US Android rival) flagships have had better chips, and the Pixel 8 is that rival. So doing a fair comparison, the Pixel 7 Pro, a 2022 phone, competes well with other 2022 flagship phones and was priced much more competitively. A brilliant phone and remains my Phone of the Year for 2022.

[@LuminolBlue]

I think Google is trying and they're trying diligently to compete with the likes of Qualcomm, but I also think Google has a long way to go before the Tensor SoC will be at a point where it can actually compete with and compare with the Snapdragon processor. Snapdragon processors are far better, far superior, and perform exceptionally well in almost every possible way, even the ones that are a generation or two behind. Despite it being it's 8th refresh for 2023, Pixel phones are still very premature and have a lot of "growing up" to do. The various issues and problems everyone keeps hearing about, to name a few: issues with the fingerprint scanner, phone getting too warm even during lite to moderate use, camera lenses randomly falling out or breaking, the buttons falling out or breaking, stutter while scrolling, general lag, battery drain, the phone getting too hot during video recording especially at 4K60, and the list goes on and on, is quite comical and unacceptable in 2023. I'm definitely not holding my breath for the Pixel 8 series and with all the problems thus far, with each and every Pixel phone to date, I personally don't feel confident enough to be able to rely on a Pixel phone as a daily driver.

Even my old Note 3 Neo got like 6/7 hours. 5 hour SOT is like going all way back into 2012 and all way back to like Galaxy S3 or iPhone 4S. Seriously, why is Pixel trashing battery so much is is bad optimization or Tensor is that horrendous? Also, my A50 just doesn't ever noticeably heat up, unless when gaming. There's something sus about Pixel being warm all time. Whatever that makes it hot, most likely causes poor battery life as well.

I'm using the 7 pro since the last dicember and I love it for pixel experience and its features that objectively I use and they're useful . Obviously s23u and other 2023 flagship are better in hardware performances and a slightly better camera but no have the same software experience that only pixel phones can offer. For my use the tensor g2's performances and battery life are sufficient. But for me the worst thing is the selfie camera, unacceptable for a phone of 1000 € and for only 3 years of major update.

Would recommend this phone to people who do not like to use custom ROMs or gcams mods Would not recommend this phone to people who have issues with AMOLED PWM as it does not have DC dimming and really low PWM frequency. Ps: I sold my Pixel 7 Pro phew!

Actually love the pixels 7 pro. The only problem I have is I've only had a month and it freezes a lot and it gets hot a lot and I don't even play games on it

[@rinkashi101]

Why it comes with no charger in the box?

But didn't you switch to the iPhone 14 Pro. I know you made a video you switched.

[@jerradmechals1]

I absolutely loved my 7 pro until i also got the 23 ultra. I cant remember the last time ive even taken a pic on my 7pro. I hate the imaging process google does. I love the innitial pic, but after 2 seconds googles AI darkens the photos. Also, portraid mode on the pixel is trash.

[@bletwort2920]

Never understood why Google of all people thought it was a good idea to go with curved screen

[@RealMrMizter]

I belive the purpose of a oleo phobic screen is so tour fingers glide on the screen better, and not so much to not pick up atuff as much like you said

Please respond to this, as I found XDA when rooting my Google Nexus! How friendly is this to unlocking the bootloader and flashing custom firmware??

[@tdmg7106]

very friendly and actually one of the easiest phone to unlock the bootloader.

Yep. Custom firmware scene is less vibrant than a few years back but you can still absolutely unlock and flash a Pixel

There's the Xiaomi 13 Ultra as well, it even has a global launched model. Comes with a 3x and a 5x sensor and is imo quite a decent bit better with far less sharpening and awesome natural details

[@happyswedishguy7951]

Never going with a xiaomi device again because they totally dropped support after 2 years which means no OS or security updates. I got my phone in late 2020 and last security update was 2022-12-01/mi 10t pro owner

for most people and I say most people the Pixel 7 pro chip set is fine unless you're going to play games but most people don't. most people do Facebook, KZbin tick tock I have the phone. it runs perfectly smooth

[@helterskelzer3883]

Wrong. It easily overheats and isn't efficient. It's trash compared to the competition

[@andyH_England]

I totally agree 100%. For the average core user, the Pixel is fine. I have no thermal issues and battery life is excellent. Compared to my Exynos S22U from last year that cost way more it is a 10/10 versus the S22U 3/10 for performance, thermals and efficiency. And the Pixel 7 Pro was released the same year as the S22 line for a fair comparison.

[@helterskelzer3883]

@@andyH_England so the average person likes overheating and bad battery life. Ok

[@andyH_England]

@@helterskelzer3883 I have minimal warmth and my battery life is as good as my S23U. So I am not sure why you keep playing that game? There are caveats, the Pixel is not targeting hardcore phone gamers and sensible people know that. It is for those that appreciate AI and ML with Pixel software, which will only get better and better in the next year or so. As I said, 8-10 hours SOT for me is more than enough.
