there is one more thing US reviewers are missing - global support. I love Pixel experience, but living in a country without Google Store and therefore Google support I’d still give my money to Samsung. VoLTE and VoWiFi are not working on Pixel outside of Google Store markets, same for 5G. Funny enough it may not work in some European countries with local Google store. Add no warranty on top of this and …. ahhh, you just have to make a lot of compromises with a Pixel.
Let me also say I totally don’t understand Google’s decision making re’ their store presence. You do have a store in Denmark (go Danes), a country with 5 million people and 60% of the mobile market owned by Apple. There is no store in Poland - 38 million citizens and over 80% of the market owned by Android. Anyone any thoughts?
@@gremlin76 Same here Andrzej. I'm in Romania, which is also a market dominated by Android with 80% and no google store.
@@gremlin76 Exactly! I got my Pixel6 in the US and now that I am traveling in HU it's dead in the water. Google refused to help for weeks, giving me runarounds and excuses. Will never buy another pixel device.
Is any one have a issue with the 5G services
overall i would say the pixel 7 pro is the best (for his price)
I love Samsung and been a Samsung user for a decade. Got my pixel 7 pro making the switch for the first time. I absolutely love this phone and I've never been so obsessed with phone photography but every pic on this phone is just beautiful to look at. If the pixels get DEX like features and the double tap to lock the screen (you don't know you need it until you do) then I'll never even consider going back. ALSO, being able to send a massive and detailed text without having to type anything because Google's voice typing is so good is just AMAZING. Again you don't realise how game changing it is until you have such a reliable partner to do it. And yeah, the pixel feels like a genuine companion. Excited to see what will come out in Nov. following the 7 series success.
To compare this phone to latest Samsung, like comparing pepsi and cola, one is far better than the other, the camera in the pixel is crap compared to samsung
@@user-lo3lm5bw7o lol for you ?
Isn't double tap to lockscreen a common Android feature?
Broo the google voice typing works on WhatsApp also ???
@@user-lo3lm5bw7owhat an ignorant comment, hahaha.
I have had Pixel 7 Pro since launch and haven't dropped it yet. It's not the phones fault you keep dropping it. Your own clumsiness shouldn't be a factor.
I get so tired of these UA-camrs always putting their BS off on any phone
Still, we should expect at least some level of durability on our phones
@@YgorCortes agreed. Why pay exorbitant prices for something that's as durable as paper?
Google pixel is better
I’m pretty sure durability matters more to normal day to day usage
There are a couple things you missed and don't worry, EVERYONE, who does these type of reviews does. I use my phone as a music source, streaming lossless audio in my hifi aftermarket car audio system, at home with an audiophile audio setup and with my higher quality, over ear headphones. The S23 phones are superior to the Pixels because the S23 series support Dolby Atmos processing while the Pixels DO NOT. Beyond the Dolby processing the S23 phones also feature UHQ Audio Upscaling used with headphones. These features makes a big difference in the streaming audio quality. I wish that more reviewers would be knowledgeable enough to include this aspect in their reviews. We use our phones for more than just the screen and camera quality. You don't have to be an audiophile wanna be like me to have a better audio experience with any of the S23s. Still, audio streaming is a big deal for me and so in that way, my S23+ (or S23 Ultra if you have it) is superior to the Pixel 7 pro.
I'm big on audio quality thank you
This may have literally been the one thing I needed to see about the S23 Ultra for me to finally jump ship and try Samsung again. Thank you.
Man audio quality is so important to me! Thanks for your comment. Imma have to go with the S23U. Cuz Im planning to get the Blessing 3 dusk by uncle Crin. Really need that UHQ upscaling
A phone with Samsung hardware and software features + the smoothness and look of Stock Android = PERFECTION
with Pixel camera software 🤩
Bring back the Google Play Edition
With the One UI 5 update, the animations and transitions on Samsung phones feel perfect. I don't miss stock Android.
S23 Ultra is a True monster
S4 Play Edition
I went from an S10e to the Pixel Pro. I like it and it definitely feels like a decent upgrade.
However, I find it funny how you hear how the Pixel has an OS closer to stock Android which makes it less bloated. Well guess what? On the Pixel's home screen you literally cannot remove the google search bar at the bottom or the "at a glance" text at the top. You can't even move them. These 2 things are 1000x more intrusive and annoying than any pre installed software Samsung has. It's crazy how no review I watched or read mentioned this. Had to find out on my own after buying the phone. Not the biggest deal in the world but still, pretty annoying.
And yes, I know I can get a custom launcher. That's not the point.
I can't believe you wrote that! Yes, 💯 agree!
Pixels also have bloat. It comes woth pre-installed Google apps.
I agree too. Really annoys me a lot when I want to custom design my home screen. Already switch to s23 though
@@carver9312 youtube is also bloat, yet here you are.. Pixels apps are barely bloat since you actually use every one of them, even Apple got more bloat with that logic since i replace them with Google apps which is better than Apples equivalent.
Everybody knows that for years. Stop buying and complaining. Instead read about the things you buy, can save you some time and frustation. But im with you, should be removable.
Have owned the P7P since launch and am very happy with my choice. Best things about the phone are the Camera and software experience. Design wise would prefer a flat screen and a matte glass finish on the back. Only downside is the battery life could be better but it’s not awful, just average. However the big plus is the price. Over here in the UK you can buy it for £749 which is an amazing bang for your buck. At launch i also received a free Pixel Watch worth £349 alongside the phone which added to the already great value of the purchase.
The software experience is the reason why I also choose the pixel, even after Android 13 galaxy phones are stuck with their own skin which makes no sense. If your phone doesn't change with latest updates, what is the point of an update? I don't understand it 🙆
That's why I hate iPhone's, I had iPhone xs back in the days which i bought at discounted price. It's got around four software updates and still looks the same. Only some one two new feature here and there that's all. Even my 6a's fingerprint sensor is not very good, i just love it for everything else..
Has the camera quality improved since launch? I remember when it first launched I thought the camera for the selfies was bad, not super bad just abit fuzzy and not as sharp and detailed as the pixel 6 pro
@@benjensen4450 camera quality on this phone from the main cameras are excellent. Not a big selfie person but they are good, but I believe there are better phones out there for those. Didn't have the P6P so can't compare.
Great video Mike, thank you very much! Both phones seem to be very strong!
Just a small note on the video comparison, I am not sure if I missed something, but I didn't get when the sound was coming from the Samsung phone or the pixel.
Keep up the good work :)
The Ultra phones are a no brainier for me. I'm visually impaired and I use the cameras to help me see things in everyday life. So those zoom lenses are indispensable for me!, But having used the Samsung phones, I've also bought into the Galaxy ecosystem, which I think is really underrated. I have the Buds, the watch, and the Tab. The way they all work together is really fantastic!
Same here
I use my base model s22 to see people far away from me just in case
Including how well they work with the Google ecosystem. I have the 22 ultra I don't think im going to upgrade until I see a appearance change.
Totally agree with you. The camera really helps me every day with my vision issues. I'm enjoying my refurbished S21 Ultra and Galaxy watch for over a year now. All they have done is improve with updates.
And my favorite is my giant Galaxy View tablet.
Samsung is the Original Producer of display! & that's why they make the best displays!.
Like amoled burn?
Green lines or white lines?
@Ralph Nikko Angeles yea like it happens all the time lol. Been using my S20 FE for 2 years and so far, nothing wrong with the display
As for me i prefer the pixel 7 pro , it is really lighter and cheaper compared to the s23 ultra, even thought they offers the same flagship options
It really came down to price for me. Plus I like that the Pixel 7 Pro is stock Android so I don't have to worry about bloat ware.
Thank you, a great comparison. I love my Pixel 7 Pro and I don't plan to switch. I have two separate lines and I'm considering the S23 to replace my iPhone 13. As my second line, it's perfect in size and features and for what I use it for.
i agree with you . I'm really not convinced about what the s23 ultra does have more than the pixel 7 pro .
I have the pixel 7 and I really like it but if I could get a second phone it would hands down. No question be the one plus 11. I want one so bad
@@tsimbinara6893 better cpu, screen, battery, s-pen?
@@Tiagoff18 These are useless things for most of people because :
1- Most of people doesn't even use s-pen on a smartphone. (there has been a study on it to see how much the spen impact smartphone users)
2- You , and nobody couldn't even see the difference between these two on a heavy task, because they run perfectly and smoothly every application
3-the screen? they're both LTPO, and one is 6'7 inch ,the other one is 6'81, it's pratically 3millimeters in the diagonal.It's unnoticeable.
4-battery ? it's about two hours of difference (20% at most) ,people rarely use more than 50-60% of their batteries before charging their smartphone, and besides, you just need to use a powerbank to fully charge your phone if you run out of battery. A powerbank costs around 10-20$.
@@tsimbinara6893 to be fair the s23 ultra seemed to perform noticeably better for mobile gaming as seen in another video; that, combined with the better battery efficiency/faster charging, i think could be enough to sway many people. also I love samsung's ultrasonic fingerprint sensors, they're great
also samsung has dolby atmos which is good for music lovers like myself
I feel the Pixel 7 pro has a more even comparison to the S23 +. But that's just me 🤔
I agree that all versions of pixels are pretty much mid range phones.
The s23 ultra is on a different level, a league of its own. If money is not an issue, go for the ultra. It's called an Ultra for many reasons.
i have tested at least the 20 last flagships from different brands but they all seem the same too me. And i don't see what the s23 ultra has more than the pixel 7 pro. Even the 14pm looks more interesting than the s23 ultra. The s23 ultra just looks like a more powerfull version of the s22 ultra but nothing more.Not a real game changer
@Hewhoremains i have to agree. I myself owned the s22 ultra last year, tried the s23 ultra last feb, then decided to trade-in the s22 ultra for half the price plus the perks. It was a total different experience. The other user might have his biases towards ios or his other reasons, and it’s okay. Hehe
@Hewhoremains i have used the 13 pm months ago , aside of being super heavy and large , i don't see anything interesting in the 13pm so i don't think the 14 pm would do better.
i think you nailed it. $600 for a p7pro and $1200 for a s23 ultra. no Q overall including the money aspect, p7 pro is the clear winner. but if you have an extra $600 rollling around, then s23 ultra
one UI has more features than any phone. One UI is very underrated and stock android maybe clean but its not as customizable as one UI. Make folders in your app drawer to organize your apps and much easier to find, Better at multitasking, and the edge panel also the link to windows, smart switch, secure folder and other more.
Here we go …. Camera design - prefer the S23U. If the P7P bar was matte… maybe. Next is design - S23U here also. Just feels better in hand. Next Camera - the broth could use some work on the software side. Give the edge to the P7P except for Macro and Zoom. The S23U just runs right over the P7P. Next Battery - the S23U rivals my iPhone 13 ProMax. The battery SOT is great. When you add it all up, it is close. IMO the S23U edges the P7P. We’ll have to see if that holds up over the next few months.
I'm currently using Galaxy A52s and the software on by Samsung is so good that it is keeping me from moving to another brand. I'm looking forward to the S23 or Ultra, but I'll wait for 3-6 months for prices to drop! I would like to try the Pixel 7, but it's too vanilla for my taste. So I was looking at Oneplus 11, but unfortunately it does not have the original OxygenOS anymore. I'm a huge fan of Asus too, but they aren't selling their Zenfone series in my country anymore :(
Bhai exact same dilemma . Oneplus nahi lena.
@@parthtrivedi2007 Maine S23 (256GB) version le liya😂
Bohot badhiya cheez hai ye🔥
Two great phones...some even thought the 7 pro was phone of the year but I've been using this 23 Ultra..so hilariously smooth and the camera zooms are wonderful. Lol. And I use the s pen..I love it all
🔝🔝🔝👆👆
I really appreciate your comment 😊 I got something for you DM📲 📦🎁
7 pro was phone of the year. Came out in 2022...the s23 in...well 2023
@Philip L. nah..it wasn't better than the Fold 4 but it was a massive improvement than the pixel 6 pro.
One very important point missing from the comparison is the modem, Samsung has much much better Qualcomm X75. If you have both phones side by side, they both will show similar network coverage but the actual usability of both is not comparable. I can make phone calls and use data with S23 Ultra on spots, where Pixel 7 Pro only shows coverage but it is totally unusable. You can barely use data or make a phone call with Pixel 7 Pro. I totally understand Mike choosing the Pixel 7 Pro, but Samsung S23 Ultra is more reliable with the much better display and much much better modem.
And one UI has more features than any phone. One UI is very underrated and stock android maybe clean but its not as customizable as one UI. Make folders in your app drawer to organize your apps and much easier to find, Better at multitasking, and the edge panel also the link to windows, smart switch, secure folder and other more.
This is so true, I had these issues also with Pixel 6 Pro
I think I prefer the Pixel overall. The camera seems to have more accurate colors, don't care about gimmicky stuff like, Pro mode 10x Zoom and about performance everywhere I've checked the S23U is mostly about 5 to 10 % better. Also the 200MP camera still needs a lot of work, and more processing power to take full advantage of it. Overall I thi k in the next generations if Samsung ups their game even further they'll be unstoppable, but for now I think I prefer rhe Pixel.
Yes, but 85% or possibly 90% people will most likely choose Samsung's photo compared to Pixel in a blind test. But yes, I do agree that Pixel's photo accuracy is better in my eyes.
Basically, Samsung is the phone for PRO and Tech Enthusiast and who wanna do the most with their device.
While Pixel is like the iPhone of the Android world. Which is basically works for most.
Basically if my parents or grandparents are gonna get a phone I would suggest them iPhone or Pixel, but if my Cousin or Friends are gonna get a phone SAMSUNG is the way to go.
Great Video.....Helping me to decide which one to pick and not having a lot of intricate knowledge, this helps me have more questions to ask and what to look for. Thank you. Mike.
go look at them yourself dont listen to this guy I* am using the pixel pro 7 and it is amazing and I switched from a ausus rog phone 6d ultimate and I get it $800 lees than the s23 ultra here in Australia
We all know cameras on the phones will rock on a table, old news. Instead of laying it on the desk/table when writing on the screen, hold it in your hand. That'll also save you from neck pain from looking down.
I wish you talked more about pro & expert RAW in this and how beneficial it is to the phone! I understand it's something you don't use in your daily routine though. AESTHETICALLY, I think Samsung did a good job sticking to the form language of the S22 ultra. Probably best to milk that for another generation or two!
Mike. Here you are talking about phones. But I have a galaxy S 8 tablet and I have lots of different problems with the camera position. Has anyone else commented on that issue?
Bought my brand new p7p for $600 in my area and I love it. No bugs at all, everything works great. Awesome phone for this price range 🤙
Then you realize it overheats in 15min while recording in 4k60. Always do research before buying.
@@HSGG_ It's not a professional camcorder, it's a smartphone. Personally i don't record videos and play games at all, so i dont see any problems. Peace
@@HSGG_ Please stop comparing, Pixel 7 pro is half the price of S23 and still itcan compete with S23, you got your point. Pixel is Hero
@@Eugene-ss2tk Yeah I agree it's all good, he loves to tear down people and smartphones. Nobody can like their device, or have opinions of the device for their use without him saying you have issues or do your homework to get the "better device".
@@HSGG_ then you realise you paid $1200 for s23 ultra...and $600 for a p7 pro. for the money no competition at all
Fantastic video Mike! Love the in depth comparison and personal experience as well. Very clean and concise. Definitely useful to see the pros of each device as they're the best options from Android right now I'd say. I went with the S23 Ultra, but I was heavily considering Pixel as well. Happy with my choice though!
I love the camera bar. Reminiscent of the nexus 6P I wanted to buy but never could.
I've owned both - first the pixel then the galaxy. I REALLY wanted to pixel to be awesome - but it had a wierd scrolling lag / jitter thing in many apps which was rubbish for a premium phone. Sent it back & got the S23 ultra as a replacement.. it's a great phone (and what the camera can do is breathtaking) but it also suffers the same jittery scrolling albeit to a lesser extent - which makes me think there is a big issue with Android and I should have got the iPhone 14 pro max instead (which - speaking as a 100% Android user - is going some)
Oh wow.. no issue here and haven'tseen that symptomanywhere online. I'm assuming you checked out the option for the refresh rate? I doubt that's what's causing it.. since both phones do it, maybe it's your provider? 🤔
@@anthonylim2428 yep nothing solved it. Persistent jerky scrolling. Some apps worse than others. No idea the cause or solution. But I know some have no issues & which makes it even more frustrating. But that issue aside, both phones are amazing
@Martin Greig damn.. Hope you figure it out man! Besides that issue, enjoy your phone!
I’d assume the jittery scrolling is the fact that apps are no where near developed as good on android than it would be on IOS. No matter how good the android OS can be. Developers unfortunately don’t make the apps as perfect or refined as the IOS counterpart
I have the 14 pro max and it is so smooth with scrolling and battery is better then the Samsung
Awesome comparison, very very in depth!
Something about the Pixel I don't like is that most of its exclusive features only work on a very small handful of countries, so they're useless to most people in the world :/
Still, I was a huge Pixel fan, I only switched to Samsung because the Pixel isn't even sold in my country so it costs much more than the S23U due to fees, and also because the Galaxy boats the amazing Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 now.
Surprisingly to me I learned to love Samsung's UI (I was a HUGE advocate of Google's UI) and its cameras (I thought Samsung would never be able to reach Google's picture processing.) I'm very very happy with the S23U and for now I actually don't miss the Pixel. Let's hope Samsung continues like this!
What I always miss in these reviews is location precision performance and details about the GNSS hardware to achieve it.
🔝🔝🔝👆👆
I really appreciate your comment 😊 I got something for you DM📲 📦🎁
Spot on analysis Mike. The Ultra is probably a better overall device, but not $300-$450 better. The 7 Pro was recently was on sale for quite a long time for $749, whereas the Ultra hasn't seen its price reduced just yet from what I've been able to tell. At their recent price points of $499 and $749, and even at their MSRPs of $599 and $899, there just aren't better options out there, except perhaps the OnePlus 11 5G.
Tbh most people trade in their device so no one is really paying full retail due to the trade in deals
@@brando3424yes but with trade ins the Pixels are even cheaper.
To be fair you can't find an android device that is as well rounded as the s23 series. It checks many boxes, and it is actually a computer with dex mode.
P7pro cannot record 4k60 without overheating.. it's just lacklustre.
@@HSGG_ this
@@brando3424 not everyone who have pro phones fully use pro features. And even if they do, just like everyone else it's not an everyday thing. And as well Samsung Dex is y fully fledged out. It's not fully capable yet. There's still some things that you can do better on a tablet than Dex. It's not necessary something to rely on if you're doing serious work.
In Germany the S23 Ultra is currently almost twice as expensive as the Pixel 7 Pro (730€ vs. 1400€). That's absurd. Nothing justifies that price difference. The Pixel 7 Pro should be the obvious choice for atleast 90% of people. For the vast majority a slightly better battery, a pen, which nobody really uses, and a better processor, which you don't notice 90% of the time, just isn't worth paying twice the price.
One UI and its features is a big deal that is why even their galaxy A series line up are selling well. The user experience in one UI is really great.
Love S23 Ultra, battery with new chip is amazing, no overheating so far, which was problem on previous generation chipset(i had Xperia 5 III previously), and screen is just magnificent....
I have small hands so these newer phones have been rather troublesome for me. But the one hand mode on the pixel jas been a massive gane changer.
What a geat Review! Could you maybe compare the s23+ with the p7pro as well?
In my opinion One UI is so good it beats out stock Android which for me is actually too bare bones. Also, Google's software updates frequently cause bugs from my experience. Samsung's updates are more dependable.
Mike, If I wanted to buy the Pixel 7 Pro through your site what link should I use? The one you have listed goes to UA-cam and refuses to open.
Pixel needs to improve on these two things especially: battery life (current battery life is not enough ) , charging speeds (30w and it barely even uses 30w) , takes almost 2hrs+ to full charge. When they cannot produce a stellar battery phone ,atleast they should compensate it with faster charging . Nothing phone 1 with 33w charges way faster than a 30w p7pro. I so wanted to get a 7pro but skipped it hoping to see a better 8pro. If google can get 8gen2 on their 8 series this year , that solves the battery life problem. Right now they're just too much dependent on samsung for the tensor chips as well as the displays . The p7pro still has older amoled tech compared to the present gen ones that can go as low as 1hz. Overall that 999 price bracket is achieved with some compromises , which can be avoided .
Agreed. The 7 Pro actually only goes up to 23W when charging. I doubt they will go with an S8g2 with the 8 Pro because of all the bragging they made about AI and "optimization" on Tensor. Tensor G3 will not reach the performance and efficiency of s8g2 which is a shame. We'll have to stick with Exynos even when Samsung ditched it
Pixel looking awesome 😍❤️🔥
Your videos are great. I love your channel!
I think you should compare pixel 7pro with Samsung s23 plus
Love his reviews and commentaries. Straight to the point and nothing more. No need for cinematic editing. Point out both pros and cons to everything.
I think it's ironic that you made a comparison video of two phones with one being the clear winner overall, and then picked the other one. But I think you're just deciding not to switch because you're really happy with the pixel and you'd like to use it longer -- you've only had it for about six months -- I can definitely relate to that. Also, Samsung flagship phones do get better in time because the software updates improve the camera's capability/optimization, reduce bugs, and improve DeX. For example, the photos that are taken from the S22 Ultra's cameras today are better than they were a year ago.
...more to do with the price, as with deals the Pixel 7P can be had (in UK) for near half the price of the S23U (currently £1400 for 12GB RAM). That is a big saving. I got the P7P for £760 and a free Pixel Watch (£400) so net £360. The S23U was £1250 (pre-order) but only 6 months Disney+ and not great trade-ins. Samsung have become even worse value than Apple, and you really have to be a believer to keep pushing your cash their way and ignoring much better value.
@@andyH_England Yes price difference is pretty big mate , here in Australia currently with a bit of a sale on both devices , a comparable 512 gb galaxy S23 ultra is $ 2049 while the 512 Gb pixel 7 pro is $ 1349 , seven hundred dollar difference , ouch ,
the pixel is a no brainer , yes the galaxy does have some redeeming features , but argueably not 700 bucks worth .
And if you go down to the 256 GB version of the galaxy 23 ultra at $ 1749 you go down to 8GB of ram where the pixel 256 GB model still has 12 gig of ram and is still 500 bucks cheaper at $ 1199.
And if you only needed the 128 Gb of storage on the pixel (which is probably ok for a lot of people because its not full of galaxy bloat) the price is an even cheaper $ 1049.
@@mikldude9376 Yes, it is hard to justify the S23U over the P7P at the prices from a subjective POV; the P7P is enough for me, and the extras on the Ultra add little value (s-pen & 10X zoom). I think many will agree, but some want the complete package and can afford the premium for S23U.
@@andyH_Englandone-handed operation, better battery, more processing power, more camera options, expert raw camera mode, developer settings with force dark mode/fps counter/animation control, sasmung dex, s pen, less throttling, can use full brightness outside of peak conditions without auto brightness on, better finger print reader, etc.
Is anybody having issues with the 5G services it's been over a year and it seems like the carriers are not fixing this issue with the 5G Services I want to see if any customers are having issues with the 5G Services 95% of the time it does not work
About the finger print sensor... Samsung needs your thumb to be better aligned while Pixel can scan at more of an angle. I find greater success with Pixel.
Disclaimer, I do have Whitedome screensavers on both. Also re-registered print after installing the screensaver.
I prefer the camera on the Pixel, I don’t zoom unless I’m taking portrait photos. I also prefer Android on the pixel Vs the Samsung s23 ultra. My Android Sim remains in a pixel.
This has been like a 5 year theme for the ultra "if you want a phone that throws every high spec and the kitchen sink get this ,if not get x". Personally I have the s23 plus,pixel 7 ,and one plus 11( yes I switch between phones) and so far the one plus 11 is my favorite. Not because it's the "best" but because it has the stuff I look for. 1 .way better haptics than the others.2. camera is comparable and better in some situations somehow.3. the ui feels good as a first one user.4 I can't stress this enough, this phone is 0-100 in less than half hour charge which for someone like me that lives on UA-cam videos is irreplaceable. I literally try to drain the op 11 and not only does it get better battery life than the other 2 but charges in minutes not hours(my pixel 7 drives me nuts with how slow it is). At this point with Android if you spend $600-1200 it's pure preference. These are all remarkable in their own way just go for the one that has the most important features to you.
Hey! Is the oneplus 11 haptics that much better than the pixel? I never tried the one plus 11 so I'm curious, if so I might actually consider getting the next oneplus phone!
@@kakarotuchiha8662 haptics on it are great on par or better than Samsung. Best thing is the whole 30 minute charge thing from dead. I can watch UA-cam for 7 hours, charge it, watch 7 more if I want. Also since it's got 16gb of ram and the same snapdragon as all the top flagships you don't lose anything performance wise, it's blazing fast.
Your battery is going to degrade rapidly with charging like that. It's why big companies do not use it
@@jordanjackson8873with new batteries degradation is much slower but besides that not everyone hangs on to a phone for 5 years. In fact most people upgrade after about 2 years anyways, for me it's probably every year but there's also the fact that the European council is pushing to make portable device batteries user replaceable by 2027, meaning if iPhone and Samsung want to sell in Europe they need to stop gauging people and add a removable lid for you to replace your own battery. This is a gimmick and a load of shit started by iPhone and perpetuated by Samsung and others. The excuse was that it made it harder to water proof phones but that was a lie because the s5 was water proof with a removable battery soooo.....
Vers informative vidéo! Tank u!
I have both and I just love my pixel so much. Haptics are way better on my pixel
Where did you get the wallpaper on the s23 ultra?
And. Ever since I first bought a phone. I've always put a rear protection cover on it.
I've been out of the phone market for almost 4 years, and these phones don't look any better than they did back then. Really sad that people still throw money at these things and they're not that much better.
I had the pixel 7 pro from launch and it was great up until it stopped connecting to Wi-Fi while I'm at home when every other device on the same Wi-Fi hooks up No restarts help it and then it stopped connecting to the internet altogether I'm getting the swirl of death while watching videos or just trying to scroll through internet browsing I have to restart the phone at least twice a day because it won't hook up to the internet I've contacted Google support and they asked for my logs I've asked for follow-up twice and they say they understand how frustrating it is but won't do anything to help me won't exchange it won't give me any addresses to send my data overage bills to very disappointed I was very much looking forward to Google
Which has the loudest speakers for those of us with impaired hearing ??? that also goes for phone call loudness .
thanks in advance.
No longer having to deal with SPAM CALLS and ROBO CALLS was enough for us to stay with Pixel phones. And works great internationally without alot of issues especially if you use Google Fi for phone service.
Cheers for the vid mate. I Went from the Samsung note to the Pixel 7 pro and after 3 months I'm going back to samsung. Phone battery is horrible, heats up to the point a message comes up saying it's too hot to be used ( although it's just stiing there not being used ) and apps continually crash.... each to their own but my personal experience is that the S23 is far superior and the $$$ difference is definitely worth it.
My pixel 6a has the same Chips and the same software. And I love it. It isn't the best, but I didn't pay 700 or 500. I paid $299 on Black Friday special in California.
I love to buy the galaxy I think just bit expensive I am waiting for price drop awesome video
Very nice video comparison
Amazing review! I have both awesome phones! Cheers!
🔝🔝🔝👆👆
I really appreciate your comment 😊 I got something for you DM📲 📦🎁
I've got both and I find myself almost always reaching for my pixel 7 pro.
The S23ultra is in a league of it's own.
Enough said! Well put!
I agree 100% my man. The galaxy just kills it in every aspect and then some.
I've owned both and I prefer the S23 ultra, better display and battery life and just as smooth as the pixel 7 pro. The Pixel 7 Pro has about 20% less battery life then then the S23 ultra which is fine but it also takes FOREVER to charge even with the 30W brick. Pixel needs to seriously update their charging speeds because 100 mins to charge a phone in 2023 is ridiculous if the phone doesn't have amazing battery life. The iPhone 13 and 14 pro max don't charge very fast but they are true all day phones so you don't have to worry about it until you go to bed, that's not the case with pixel.
I currently ordered a Pixel 7 Pro for $550 brand new from Ebay and it was a no brainer. I wouldn't order or wait for the pixel 8 or 8 pro cuz they always release pixels with new bugs and only after a while all those small defects get iron iron out thru updates. As for the Galaxy s23 ultra unless you got a decent phone to trade in on the Samsung website you won't get a good deal.
The Pixel 7 pro is on sale right now at Best buy for $750 256gb model
Unfortunately they have terrible trade-in values...
I'm on my 6th pixel 7 pro since December. 3x the screen after flashing white it completely bricked after cust service made me do a factory reset. Since then each phone has over heated, screens flicker green or white. Waiting for my 6th pro tomorrow. I want the phone of the year in all the reviews. Had horrendous service.
Why not sell the new one you get in the mail on swappa and get a Samsung. 6 phones in 3 months is insane
Face unlock works better on the p7p. Makes it eisier to open your phone. Faster than a fingerprint as well.
Thanks for the review. I've been looking to buy a new phone and someone told me to go for the Pixel Probut I'm Samsung fan, now I can make my decision
I been with Samsung since there first android phone , especially with the note flagship, s23 ultra is the game changer, excellent performance excellent battery excellent screen etc etc
Excellent review.
I want a phone with pixel design (camera bar, curved glass), samsung hardware, googles camera software and One UI
OneUI!?!?
Not gonna lie you had me in the first half
@@captprice0079 cuz I'm used to it and theres alot of features I use
Here in ASEAN the problem on pixel is the warranty and 5 G network not working here...
I'd take the Pixel even if they cost the same, but there's no doubt that the S23U looks better (hate the goofy visor) has the better battery , screen, fingerprint reader and cpu. Software and pictures though, you cant beat Pixel. /IMO
Why would you ever put your keys in the pocket with the phone?!
🔝🔝🔝👆👆
I really appreciate your comment 😊 I got something for you DM📲 📦🎁
If we could get Google's software (+ Samsung's Dex) with Samsung's hardware, that would be a great phone.
I was wondering if the Samsung can edit photos like Pixel Pro, such as erasing people or grabbing someone else's photo and then editing?
If you notice when he put them side by side when scrolling, there was a lot more effort to get the pixel to scroll. There's an ongoing bug with this that drove me crazy and was one of the reasons I moved from the pixel 7 pro to the s23 ultra . I wish the s23 had the pixel software and camera set up.
they were no different at all , you just build yourself excuses for spending money on the s23 ultra😂
@tsimbinara6893 lmao yes there was a difference. It's crazy hoe much pixel fans try to delude the whole world into purchasing a hardware nightmare with bugs and glitches for simple apps like Twitter.
Why do people bring up fingers being wet when it comes to finger print scanners like I don't touch my phone when my hands are wet so not a big deal for me
You should have turned off scene optimizer in Samsung in order to take realistic pictures
Software support ?
Why do some s23 ultras have the IMEI numbers on the back while others don't
Pixel 7 is a great phone, but S23 Ultra is a much better phone for me.
I thought u were bout to spit some bars or sing on the intro lmao
Useful video
Why do people attribute the heavy weight of a phone as being premium? Why should I prefer something I use in one hand to be heavy? I bought the S23 Ultra but I'm not able to carry around so my sim card is back to my Motorola Edge 30 Fusion which is built with premium quality but weighs only 175 grams. It can be in one hand for hours with no fatigue in your hand. I think that's what we should be referring to as premium
I have an Edge 20 Fusion and love the light weight. I also love the gestures to open the camera, turn on the flashlight and split the screen.❤
Best review ever i seen
I'm getting Samsung galaxy S23 plus &
Pixel 7 pro at almost same price....so which one should I go for.... Please suggest me... Thanks in advance....
I would choose s23U
Pixel 7 pro cinematic mode is unmatched, but battery life makes it not a good primary phone you can't use it while charging and reach a 100% charge which is something I never encountered with a smart phone in over 8 years.
I'm wondering why Samsung does not have live translation. This is an utterly useful feature.
One thing that no reviews talk about is the cameras on both phones on moving objects like kids and animals, I have both phones and will return one of them.
The 23 ultra never takes good photos of my kids or animals, Animals fur doesn't look right, Kids faces smoothes out like it has a filter on it and they get blurry 8/10 times, None of these problems exist on the pixel 7 pro when I'm trying both. Still photos outside looks awesome in both phones but life isn't always still.
Another thing I wish the ultra had was the ability to copy any text in the screen like the pixel. And the pixel can tell me the songs that are playing at all times, and saving it in a list so I never have to wonder what songs are playing, if the ultra doesn't get an camera update soon and fixes these problems then I'm gonna send it back and keep my pixel
I also have both and agree fully with your thoughts. The other aspects is how well Pixel utilizes it's software better.. like At a glance is better on pixel than s23u. Direct my call, better caller ID, hold my call, etc. Samsung has a much better screen though and battery life. But for photos, pixel all day
What about ram size and storage comparison???
You should probably start implementing time stamps on your vids
Naah, Samsung doesn't need a camera bar. Great video though. I'm not along with a lot of other people, just not a fan of the visor on the back of the Pixel
I like the Pixel 7 pro better overall, great review bro
I like the Pixel better because it will get software updates quicker than the Galaxy tbh. I also like the price.
Now can you imagine if google works with TSMC to make the pixel chipset 🥹
Imagining what it will be like to have Pixel 7 Pro with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 instead.
Pixel would be the best Android hands down with Snapdragon Power.
It wouldn't be $600 anymore also. It would jump to $1100
I have the Samsung Galaxy s23 ultra and I've been using it for 2 weeks. Now. I have a pixel 6 Pro and I've been doing comparisons. Because I'm trying to decide whether I'm going to take back the s23 ultra or exchange it for the pixel 7 Pro. I think the Google Assistant works better on the pixel. I also think that voice to text on the pixel is way better, mainly because the Google Assistant is helping you do voice to text. I also like the feature on the lock screen that shows you what music is playing nearby. The pixel buds also work better with the Pixel phone. My pixel does everything I needed to do for me. Contrast that with the s23 ultra I will say it's customization and feature set is insane and there's a lot of fun things I can do with this phone. I also love it's battery life. The s pen is good because it can do several things but I don't find myself really using it that much. So I'm either going to get the pixel 7 Pro because I like my six and I figured the seven would be an upgrade over what I currently have. Or, I can keep the Samsung phone and enjoy all the extra customization and features. It's a hard choice.
Dive into the Samsung Ecosystem it's amazing
Voice to text on Samsung is not bad. I've tried it and have no error when using it.
@@nathanjuan6042 It's not that it doesn't have errors. It's slow. Trust me when you have used it As much as I have on my pixel, the difference is incredible.
@@thetruthstand Well I haven't used a pixel so I can't tell the difference. But for average user who haven't use a pixel phone voice to text on Samsung is ok. Same thing with having a 60hz if you haven't tried a 90 or 120hz then you will not notice it but when your used to having higher refresh rate then maybe you might notice it. Anyway I don't really use voice to text that much so I don't mind it tho.
Do not get the 7 pro. It is not enough of an upgrade. I'd wait for the pixel 8 pro. The 6 pro has better speakers than the 7 pro. Google has some things they need to work out with these pixel phones honestly.
from 2020, phone cameras were really already good,now we are just nitpicking.
