I thought you were a content creator with thousands of subscribers... but, for my surprise, your vid is super neat, great and awesome edit skills, excellent long-term review. Hope more people will stumble upon your channel because is so underrated. Nothing to be jealous of the big youtubers out there. Greetings from Spain! Of course, subscribed! Lot of prayers to you and your dream career!!!
Genuinely the best Pixel 7 review I’ve watched (and I’ve watched a LOT) - some great insights into day-to-day life of using the phone alongside the content we need to know. Length was perfect too, I’d have listened for longer 😅
Thank you so much for this. I FINALLY found a long term review where you actually talk about using the phone. Almost all the others consist of the reviewer listing all the specs again and then showing pictures from the camera. I went from the Pixel 3a to the iPhone 13 mini, but I'm thinking I'm going to switch back to the Pixel 8 when it comes out.
YES! STOPPING AN ALARM BIA VOICE IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING MY LAWDDDD
I've had issues too but they all got resolved within a month. This is an incredible unmatched device
it's hot garbage
if you like a phone that weighs more than 🐽Amy Shmuer 🐷and still manages to not even get 1h 45m SOT and won't even get you through 1/3 of a day even if you never take it out of your pocket( in fact the only way to make it last 1/3 of a day is by not using the actual screen more than ten minutes all day), a phone that is 100% gauranteed to be dead when you wake up , a phone that overheats doing nothing at all and nearly goes supernova when updating apps.
A phone that will make your pantaloons drop to your ankles and make it feel like you have a hot brick of shit in your britches
with more gremlins than the parking lot at a 1973 skynyrd concert then by all means buy this flaming chemical toilet of a device
If I strapped myself up like Billy hayes at the Istanbul airport with 20,000 mAh power banks instead of hashish I could not acheive 2 hours SOT with this POS.
How can a phone with a battery larger than 🐽Amy Shchumers gargantuan dumper🐷 not even be able to achieve 2 hours SOT even at 20% brightness?

Frl. This has been an old trick. Seems many people still don't know that
very true. this is exactly what i did on my p7 and it's very accurate.
What's On My Pixel 7 : ua-cam.com/video/xaoem0aV_Vo/v-deo.html
Thank you, Mr. Floyd. I was on the fence about getting a Pixel 7, but now I'll take the leap. Please know that you are so very professional, and it was a very well-produced, good review! I will pray for you, as you asked. Resurrection blessings!
Great video bro. I chose the 7 over the Pro and I do not regret it. The standard 7 offers so much value to the consumer. It’s everything you need or could want out of a device and nothing you don’t. Definitely a nice “starter premium” device as Some Gadget Guy put it
May I ask u what device u would choose 7 or 6 pro cuz I am gonna buy one of them and I am totally confused
@@amrsalah37 I own a 7 and my friend owns a 6, I would choose the 7 as it has a fresher feel and a nicer look for me especially around the camera with the rounded corners and no the flat panel on the 6, the 7 also has the Tensor G2 unlike the 6 having an older one.
@@kubaalex4550 yeah 7 is definitely better than 6 but what about 7 vs 6 pro
@@amrsalah37 The 6/6 pro has serious modem issues. The 7 has the new G2 chip and an all around better feel and look imo. Go for the 7 100%
@@GoldyGodly77 thanks bro u make me more specific in my opinion so I am gonna buy pixel 7 and it will come in about 5 days
Thanks for talking at length about the software and update history. I had a very mixed experience with the Pixel 4 - each update seemed to fix some bugs but introduce new ones (no excuse for Google of all companies to not have a seamless Android experience). Glad the 7 seems to be more polished, but I’d still worry about the software longevity over a 3-4 year span. Still the most attractive Android phone in my books though.
Thanks for the great review, and good luck on the move.✌🏻
7 pro has bugs as well. A lot of issues with apps not loading and working properly. I'm going back to Samsung.
@@mjjones1045 That’s unfortunate. It boggles the mind that Google can’t get the software right. The Pixel really should be the easy/risk-free pick, but even after seven iterations, it isn’t.
Great review! Got the phone some two weeks ago so I know myself how sick it is, but also cannot stop watching reviewers give praise, hahah
I really like the photography and fast voice transcription of Pixel phones, but it's looking like the Galaxy s23 ultra has kind of blown the pixel 7 pro out of the water this year. There are quite a few upgrades that Google needs to do to make the pixel phone a contender with the likes of Apple and Samsung. I am really hoping that the pixel 8 pro can bridge the gap this year and rival the likes of the s23 ultra which seems to be quite the beast.
I agree Samsung is better but remember it's also $&00 more than the pixel 7 most users don't care about all the features they will never use anyways. I just returned my s23 ultra a few days ago. Texting and emailing on android is a nightmare
google is okay with letting Apple and Samsung duke it out in the premium phone area.
they tried competing with samsung and apple. It didn't sell well. but their budget phones, The A series, were flying off the shelf. so they are deciding to try and make a space for itself in a "Good phone for a good price" area. Not the best, but really great.
@@durururururururu also, even though google's specs are inferior to Samsung, they have to fight through less bloatware.
There were some "gaming" tests done and surprisingly, Iphone 14 pro came in third, despite having far superior chip to both s23 ultra and p7p
Nice video man. I picked up the pixel fold and love it... For the most part. I don't think I would keep it for 3 years so even at $1000 off, they are bill credits and will pick me in for 3 years. I ended up rolling to best buy and picked up an open box 7 for $300. Honestly, I'm impressed.
Hey. Thanks for a great review and best of luck with the move to your new apartment. I look forward to more of your reviews once you're settled in.
I've had my Pixel 7 since black friday and I have no complaints performance wise, and unlike some reviews, for me the fingerprint sensor works great. It may be slightly slower than the competition, however, it always unlocks first try for me, though you definitely need to get used to the location. my one complaint is their qc issues, my first pixel i had had some pretty awful screen banding, and the first time i contacted google about it they did nothing, however ultimately i did end up getting a replacement which has worked perfectly.
Did you get the regular Pixel 7?
I absolutely love my pixel experience. I have had iphone , my wife loves Samsung phones, and from what I have seen and expensived , I will take pixel any day.
i dint knew if i could stop my alarm with voice command hehe.. i tried it and it worked fine for now.. thanks
what people need to know precisely, is that Google is making for smartphone new set of rules, Smartness is high priority on the Pixel's Philosophy, brain first than muscles, Google is bringing software solutions to hardware problems, AI and life solutions, so when you want to pick a phone as your daily gear for fun and professional facilities, Pixel will win easily on this area, I'm a smartphone intense user I tried so many phones, 8 years iPhone user, 4 years Huawei P and Mate series user before US ban which was and still stunning phones makers by the way both software and hardware, OnePlus 8 I loved the Oxygen Os, 3 years Samsung Galaxy S series user more hardware shining (S21 Ultra was my last one)
now having a Pixel 7 pro I feel for the first time that I have a very different way of a phone thinking than the others I feel like the others are a very strong muscled Old dudes, Google Pixel 7 is like a young smart tricky dude that makes things shining by thinking than wrestling, if Google keep doing this, Pixel will be my forever ecosystem for life not only the phone but everything related to.
Awesome video! Very informative. Thanks!
The processor on my 7 Pro is most likely weaker than S23 (even the Exynos version), but this is the first good phone I've bought. I'd used Samsung phones before, and I don't miss the insane amount of bloat at all.
Thanks for the no-bullshit review. I see a lot of reviewers who get really into the weeds about what specific processor the phone is using and how many hertz the refresh rate is on a screen and to be honest I don't really know what any of that means and I don't care to learn. I just want to know what it is like to own this phone day to day and I think you have given me just that. Kudos.
Great review boss. Im loving this device especially for the price haha
Thank you my friend, I keep seeing the price get lower and lower lol Im jealous of those getting it for so cheap
Just ordered the Pixel 7 last night. They are running a deal for $150 off, and getting an est $200 trade in credit with my pixel 4a, so it ends up being $250 plus tax. Not bad at all for this phone 👍
Wow, when I checked trade in for pixel 4a was $50!
is the battery good ?
You it gotta bro! We are praying that you move in HIS PURPOSES and HIS TIMING in HIs LOVE & HIS GRACE! Happy Holy Week!
Hey man, background music is a bit loud. Good vid! Hoping to get pixel 7 soon
Working on it for future videos and thank you for the feedback =)
IMO, the Pixel 5 is far superior from a useability POV.
On *Pixel* *5*:
1) Fingerprint sensor ALWAYS works. I've *disabled* this feature on the Pixel 7 cos it's next to useless. However, I AM liking the face unlock on the P7, I will keep trying this for unlocking.
2) It's the perfect size. The Pixel 7 is too long IMO. You need to use two hands most of the time to use it.
3) It's the perfect weight. The Pixel 7 is noticeably heavy.
I’m tiered of using my 14 Pro Max. I want something different and a change! I’m selling it for the Pixel 7 Pro
First time viewer here. This was informative. You're great at what you do!
Glad you mentioned gaming since I don't game on my phone and to my understanding it drains the battery on this phone like crazy.
Gotta say voice call on pixel 7 is very clear
Did your camera got shattered? thanks for the vid!
Im about to buy it but the screen flickering I saw in your video concerns me... Im currently using sony xz premium with an ips display. I think this flickering is going to give me headaches...
Good to know that the Pros overweigh the Cons and the Cons arent even that critical. This makes me way more excited for the Pixel 8 and Pixel Fold!
Where did you get that purple and pink skin from? It looks super cool
I came from s21 ultra and I've been a Samsung guro for 10 years. And I switched to 7pro. Honestly the only gripe is. I don't have a spen. But camera is impressive and though possibly in some instances the camera is a little better. But I am extremely happy with the 7 pro
And the price. Amazing. Thank you Google
hey there great video... I love my pixel 7 .... what date and weather widget are you using
I pray that you have succes!
There is an elephant in the room that nobody talks about - cracking camera screens
What's the screen on time like , is Charging slow too? I'm on a redmi note 11 pro and get a full charge in an hour which I love
Great review.
The pixel 7 pro is currently on sale where both the 128 and 256 variants cost the same as the oneplus counterparts. Aside from much faster charging and the faster soc, wondering if the pixel is the overall better device
Depends if you live in US, if not oneplus11 is better. There's a lot of reports of camera glass shattering and buttons falling out, but google not addressing them. If you live outside US its likely google will not support 5G in your region cause of carrier lock.
I like how they mentioned every bug with an update.
I've had that recording app on my Pixel 2 since June 2020. There was a very minor update in it but nothing special or particularly new.
About being unable to remove it 10:50 . Yeeeees! That’s why I don’t like iPhone because is much more restrictive. Thanks for understanding
you're a very good tech reviewer bro
I like it that you have the Bible app. Nice
Toying with the idea of swapping my Sony Xperia 5 IV, for a pixel 7....
I have pixel 3a and still 💪
Worth to upgrade to 7 or wait for 8?
Great video! New subscriber, I could get this used brand new (lemongrass) for $450. Is What do you think? Is this gonna worth? I normally update phones every 5 years or so. Thanks in advance. Keep the great work.
Do you have a special widget to get the clock like that on your main screen?
And poor me, using a 2020 pixel 4a and am absolutely fine with it. Seems like the lifespan of modern devices is getting lower and lower. 🤣🤣🤣
Lol enjoy
the alarm stop bug is really annoying , not worked since first day
Kill the music or speak closer to your microphone!
Why nobody says about the completely useless selfie cam?
Why is it cool to talk about bugs on the Pixel, it's almost as if it is a must if you want to be somewhat relevant in the tech community? I have not experienced any issues with my Pixel 7 Pro.
Good video
Glad you enjoyed
how can i reduce the chances of glass shattering?
put a tempered glass on camera lense
@@slebewewewe00 oky ty
4:00 that game?
how can i disable at a glance widget?
What game was he playing?
I have it and I love it. However I switched to the older Oppo Find X3 Pro.
A lot of the Pixel features are not working in my country/language (Netherlands) yet, charging is waayy too slow (my Oppo is full from 15-100% in like 20 mins) and I miss the zoom and macro lens. Also some camera features like dual video recording. I wanted to love it so much, and I do, however it is not enough for my needs. Pixel experience and haptics are top notch though!
yah, i agree with the charging, they should upgrade it like 45W or more. And put the charger back in the box
Hi, I'm just thinking about changing my Oppo Find X3 Pro to pixel 7. Do you think it's worth it? If the battery lasts longer, if the camera is better and if it works better.
@@VideosHuerfanitos it is a very nice experience, however long term it wasn't for me. Camera is great though. But like I said, I miss zoom and macro lenses too much. I just got annoyed too much by the Pixel, especially with the charging.
But if you don't care about those things it is a lovely phone.
There seems to a bigger problem which for some reason no one is pointing out.I myself own a Pixel 7 and I have also seen quite a bit of Pixel 7's in my friends hands and all of them have WASHED OUT DISPLAY ,to say it simply " ITS NOT WHITE" its warm, and pale it doesn't even look natural and thats such a big turn off coming from 3Yr old Oneplus 7 Pro. Front camera is okayish and the display makes it look worse than it actually is😮💨. its like " if you want to watch someone or something it looks washed out and if someone wants to watch you, then your mid level selfie camera will let you down ". The screen is horrible next to Pixel 3's and 4's which came out ages ago; its not about the CLARITY its about the COLOURS..........Ugh #hateit .
Can I put Apple Pay on it? I am switching from a iPhone
They have google play , somewhat the same
Sorry, but the background fill music just destroys, turn it down man 🤫
even though,this is not a full device review there are bunch of great things you didn't mention about what the phone AI is capable of, there are at least 30 stunning and life solutions software features that are exclusive to Pixel 7 series you didn't mention + ecosystem area
That's why for the case you need to just get the Google Case
My pixel 7 battery gives very poor runtime and I do not play games.
💯 😎
Had every pixel up to 4, got the 7, big mistake.when my contract is done, the 7 will be my last google .
Nah, them washed out full colors have no fix! Shame that older tech has better screen.
There is no mistake. You can't go wrong with a pixel.
I seen 2008 phones with a better finger print scanners
I never buy anything at launch.
Oppo X5 pro is way better
LOL to 2-5 hours a day of UA-cam a day that's Noob numbers
Great video my guy. After finishing the video, I saw that you only had 4.2k subs. I deadass thought that you would be in the 100ks with video quality like this. Keep it up and all the best with the moving👍
Agreed. Instant sub.
Did you just say deadass?
If you have any issues with your usb port and out of warranty your phone is unrepairable. I have a pixel six and love it. The port is bad and i can only wireless charge. The port is attached to the motherboard and Google won't sell them . I'm semi disabled and have very limited income. I'm basically screwed. The pixel 7 is built the same way. Again love using the phone however it's a very poor design. I understand phone can break, at least make them repairable. A vast amount of other phones have a charging port that is on its own board and therefore repairable. Google won't sell me another motherboard so now I'm doing my best to warn others about this pathetic design.
I loved and appreciated everything about this. Glad I watched ‘till the end to also see that my initial thoughts to say are in alignment with your journey. I was going to say “I wish you all the best in all that you do. This video randomly popped up on my feed and 1) your presence was captivating, 2) your review was relatable and informative and 3) you seem to be in your element. “. Had no idea you’re moving but I hope it does allow you more space for creativity because you’ve got the sauce! Continued success :) 🎉thank you for helping me with my new device search!
Viendo desde mi Pixel 7. La mejor experiencia Android que he tenido. Está a un nivel superior definitivamente.
Thank you for your amazing detailed review.
I'm still contemplating on buying S23 or Pixel 7 Pro.
Insanely good quality video for your sub count, I'm confident your channel is going to do well. My only suggestion is make your background music a little quieter, you were a little hard to hear
I appreciate that and thanks for the feedback. After playing back the video a few times, I agree and will keep that in mind in the future =)
Hey guys! Hope this video helped those wondering if the Pixel 7 is worth it still in 2023. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to let me know! =)
Thank you for the video! I bought this phone for my mom for her birthday and I was concerned that it would be like past Pixels, with bugs, glitches, and terrible performance. But this video helped me see that Google has gone a long way since then and now I am positive that it will be a good gift for her! It gets here tomorrow so hopefully she will like it. Thank you again!
Here are my comments after using the Google Pixel 7 Pro 256GB for 2 months:
1) The display is very greenish even at full brightness. In the system setting, there is no way to adjust for colour temperature and RGB levels. I am not sure if this is a software issue or hardware issue.
2) The sound levels for alarm volume, notifications volume and call volume can only be ramped up/down in 6 fixed levels. Not very flexible...
3) The power button and volumn up/down buttons are at the same side. likely to press wrongly most of the time.
4) The volume up/down button is the centre of the phone body. It is MOSTLY IMPOSSIBLE to place the phone nicely on a gimbal/stabilizer.... I wonder why the product designer team missing this out...
5) Missing lots of basic apps, even the "MUSIC" app is not included. I downloaded a music player app that able to scan my all mp3s but with advertisement. I think this is really ridiculous to happen on google store. Google shall at least provide a free and functioning mp3 player. Other missing apps include COMPASS, HEALTH, SMART CLEANING (free up space)
6) The spotify or mp3 files album cover is no longer displayed fully on the lock screen for this version of Android :((
7) No 50MP raw image from the main camera. The max resolution i get from raw file is only 12MP.
Overall I feel no surprise or even disappointed from upgrading from LG v40 (my 4 year old phone)...
I really hope i can give direct feedback to Google....

What’s your pixel home theme? Looks cool! Nice video btw!!
Hey man first time seeing your content and its quite informative. I wish you the best of luck!
I love making these videos with as much information as possible so I hope it helped. I need all the good wishes I can get so thank you!
Just bought the 7Pro after a decade of Samsung, and I'm just getting used to the Google way of doing things - not always intuitive. As you say, it's a great phone with some flaws, but no regrets so far. My worst experience has been with the UA-cam Music player, and trying to migrate (and then re-organise) my library of tracks for offline use - complete nightmare!
So agree on the cover/case statement you made regarding the pixel. On my 4th cover and still looking for the one!!!! I'm a long term Xiaomi user upgrading every year and bought the 6a for a test year and only 6 months in, in ready to delve back into the Xiaomi family. Thanks for the pixel share and upload.. An Aussie
I prefer the Pixel 7 Pro over the S23 Ultra. A lot of the glitches at launch have been fixed. Only pro I still have from time to time is the device getting hot. I had the 7 and switched to the Pro and I love it. I’m an iPhone user primarily, but my secondary sim stays in a pixel.
If you're gonna make a statement like that, Im guessing you owned an S23U as well??
S23U: Better processor, better performance, better camera, better battery, bug free.
Pixels are unreliable.
@@ElGaby323 I sure did. I returned it. It was by no means think the S23 Ultra is a bad device. But the things that are important to me I feel the Pixel Does them better. Android feels more fluid on the pixel, no dropped frames when navigating apps, the camera is better, better features such as now playing. The S23 ultra took pretty good video and I love the floating camera design. But I’d take the Pixel over it 🤷🏾♂️
Hi, What you do for living?
@johnlmooring, have you tried transferring data such as WhatsApp history between iPhone and pixel, and vice versa?
I have both but the s23u is better in every way. I still love my pixel 7 pro my second phone.
Planning on buying next month, after watching few reviews I'm convinced that the pixel 7 is the best for 500dollars
It keeps getting cheaper too! Great phone for the price

@@seongseong7161 great bro keep submitting feedback to Google they'll definitely consider software issues and may be change their design for pixel 9 series 👍
Thank you @@aravindkavs6024 !!! I will spend times submitting feedback to Google, hope they won't be continuing to limit those functions in new phones
@@seongseong7161 how is your experience with pixel 7 series
Any heating issues, how about cameras.
I would like to buy upcoming pixel series. is it good to go for pixel?
I work in marketing and am thinking about getting this as a personal device but will use it for work too 📷. Currently use a Galaxy A50 and the camera quality isn't cutting it
Do you think it's worth getting it now or after the summer when the next version comes out?
If you dont have budget issues, just wait for pixel 8
Hey man I totally love your home screen setup. What's the widget app you're using ???
@Jordan Floyd which wallpaper on home screen and launcher are you using on pixel 7? Can you please give name?
I thought of buying pixel, but chose OP11, my friend shattered 2 camera lenses in cold temperatures, add that it does not support 5g in 2/3 of the world.
I mean.. even the Pixel 3 is still worth it dude
I get 13 full hours not bad at all
I returned the Pixel 7. The fingerprint sensor is terrible.
Works great for me
What kind of case / screen protector are you using?
man can i get a homescreen video of urs what all you have added and how you customised it or even reply me here please becoz urs looks amazing
I am pretty disappointed from this device. I had Xiaomi note 9 before. Battery survived 1.5 day without a problem. Including ir and jack that missing, I am disappointed from this device, expected more from this. Battery barely survive a day, reaching 20 by 8pm. Nothing I really recommend about. Xiaomi note 12 pro or a54 could be better choice and less money spent
Just got rid of my 14 pro max for a 7 pro. I hope it is a good choice but I love the software
Battery power isn't the best like
I didn't get this phone til around black Friday. And I must say I didn't run into much issues at all. The phones been great 👍🏼. And minor...and I do mean minor stuff, that went away really fast. The call screening I use quite a lot. And I'm coming from having OnePlus. Pixel I feel is the best android phone that's akin to a iPhone.
I have had the Pixel 7 since December and like most things but the battery is so bad. I'm not sure I've ever made it through an entire day without charging. I usually charge before leaving work or leaving the house because I know it won't make it through the day. Even when I turn off all the battery eaters it still can't get through a day.
