Probably the best review of the Pixel 7 I've seen yet, thank you! You appeared to do an honest and un-biased review and that is much appreciated, especially in this world of Samsung and Iphone snobs! It's very refreshing to see someone who realizes you DON'T have to spend $1,000-$1,800.00 for a smartphone with near flagship features and specs! I got the (standard) Pixel 6 when it was released in the Fall of 2021 and really thought it would be a device I would keep for at least 5 years, but the Pixel 7 has enhanced the workings of the phone and upgraded just enough of the important aspects which will have me upgrading to it this Fall. Once again, thank you for the excellent review!
I have the pixel 7 pro coming from Samsung for the last 10 years. Im in love, stock Android is beautiful, no bloat, the phone is 100% butter smooth. The battery is okay but I only have this phone since 1 day, apparently AI will enhance the battery life over time. Also this is the only phone where I ever used adaptive brightness and it's amazing. But yeah since I have a 26.000 mAh Powerbank from Anker with 65w pd I never need to worry about battery life anyways, I can recharge the phone over 4 times with it lol.
I have an unlocked North American Pixel 7 pro; a GREAT phone; BUT BUYER BEWARE. Google perhaps stupidly or in a self-defeating manner, blocks 5G connections to much of Europe and Asia. If you are a mobile warrior or professional who travels often.... AVOID this phone as well until Google addresses this outrageous issue. My friends with Iphones and Samsungs do not face the same issues.

Very good review. I have the 7pro after living with the 6 for a year. I had a software issue with my first 7pro but this was handled and dealt with very quickly by Google. I have now had no 2 for longer than No1 with NO issues. I am 100% happy with the phone and service by Google.
Tired of companys following bad trends. Anti consumer trends. If i start a phone company charger and headphones case and screen protector all in the box. This bs needs to stop
Thanks for this, was on the fence about picking this up as I've heard horror stories about the pixel 6, but the fact that you still think this is a solid af phone after having it as long as you have has convinced me. Thank you for such an in-depth review, it really covered what I was curious about in the phone itself.
This is a really good phone overall. Most phones today are overkill. You dont need an iphone promax to just scroll through social media and make tiktoks.
Had mine for a month, excellent value phone, very happy with it. I decided to upgrade to Pixel 7 from iPhone X - I could not justify paying double for an iPhone with worse specs..it makes no sense. Glad I made the switch. I don't have any battery issues as some describe.
The camera is very good, perfectly fine. No complaints. I don't think you will find a better phone for this price. It's honestly a good deal, it is less than half the price of the iPhone 14 but better hardware. Enjoy@@shivamsuryawanshi6739
Very cool to hear. And I did a similar comparison with the Iphones before I got the Pixel 7. But in the end I really could not justify paying more than twice for not even better hardware in many areas.
Same here! Bought the pixel 7 and sold my 14 pro. Battery on point same screen on time as the 14 pro maybe even half and hours + . If you like the phone Just buy One these rewiews are getting out of hand
I saw one in Currys, I found the display a bit dim in manual standard brightness 😔 I then looked at a Samsung A34 and found that display much more appealing and brighter ( considering the A34 is a lower end device I was quite surprised by it's display quality)
I love my pixel I have the 6 for my work phone and iPhone 14 pro for my personal phone I love the Google pixel because of the screen call feature service and holding my place for calls. The only issue I have is the phone can get extremely hot at times and that even when I have all my apps closed out but overall I am satisfied with it I may upgrade to 7a but I will wait for pixel 8 hopefully google will fix the issue
Once upon a time we walked the Earth with a pocket full of nickels for the phone on the corner, a watch on your wrist, a pencil, a small calculator, an envelope or two, postage stamps, a road map even a small transistor am/fm radio and if you were headed somewhere special you bought along your polaroid camera and extra flash cubes.
I prefer to buy phones that are "failures" over phones that are "successes". In the last 18 months I bought a new iPhone SE 2020, a new Samsung A53 5G and a Pixel 6a at half price for different members of my family. I got them all for half price because they had had poor reviews. There is nothing wrong with the design of any of these 3 phones.
Only major negative I've had with Pixel 7 is lack of 5g support in my country (absolutely ridiculous). Minor negatives - had to buy new PD charger because old charger worked sometimes and then didn't. Picture-in Picture for UA-cam only works via browser work-around, and weirdly via the app for one obscure UA-cam channel that I spend most of my time with. This is common to most Android phones now because Google wants you to pay for UA-cam Premium, but my old Honor still allows it.
It's a pretty nice review that you have performed with a calm and relaxing presentation of all the pros and cons. You took pause and put words which makes more sense better than every other UA-camrs who are trying to pretend to be warm, energetic, and enthusiastic. Happy to see your video and happy means...
I just picked up a refurbished model for $379CAD ($279USD)!!! It only has a couple of tiny marks on it, and otherwise feels 100% new. For that price, it feels like a total steal. Really enjoying it so far, its a big upgrade over my outgoing Xiaomi Mi 9t (although that was a beast in its own right.)
Ordered mine this morning and now randomly found this video. Great review, but the black cat moment for me as a black cat own... servant was pure joy. Can't wait ❤❤❤
I'm still rocking the Pixel 4a. Of course the Pixel 7 looks like a nice phone but I'm not seeing anything that has me reaching for the buy button. I don't have any scratches or cracks and I've taken good care of the battery so I'll probably wait to see that the 8 looks like.
I too am still using the 4a for more than 2.5 years. No other issues, just that the battery has degraded. So I am considering getting a Pixel 7. Love the form factor of 4a though.
@@swadhinsatpathy4527 I've kept my charge between about 20 and 80 (most of the time) and my battery is still doing really well. Also heat is a battery killer. I try to charge mine on a conductive surface such as a granite countertop or metal or glass desk or cabinet--these surfaces absorb all the heat, the battery stays healthy, and it charges faster.
Thanks Mihai for this seemingly very honest and open review. Well thought out, I really feel like you've actually used this phone for months (which I don't get from other reviews). You convinced me to go for the Pixel 7, but I'll wait for Black Friday for a nice discount. Thanks again!
Thanks a lot man, glad you found it useful! :) And checking out the new prices of the Pixel 8, Yeah I'd say a Pixel 7 on discount is probably the sweetest deal to find.
I'm a really big apple fan , but since that phone came out my opinions are changed , this phone has much more better design than iPhones. Btw I appreciate your honest reviews!!!
Im loving my pixel 7 Pro no complaints. And obviously the camera 📸 is great. If I ever come up with an issue I will address it until then its all good 💯💯💯💯
I currently have the samsung s20 FE 5G. I don't know if its defective or what, but the camera is awful. It always has a blurry halo around whatever I'm taking a picture of. I'm really leaning towards a Pixel 7 as an upgrade! :D
Nice to hear, im about to shift to pixel 7 from realme 8, tomorrow im getting the phone as i purchased in at online, it is getting delivered to me next day, i was super excited about my new pixel 7
@@katinasoutherland7693 I had a samsung s8+ (Or whatever it was called) and I thought it took great pictures. Then I "upgraded" to this samsung s20 FE and it's awful. I still haven't upgraded my phone, but, I'm leaning heavily to the Pixel!
Not a serious issue necessarily, but it'll age the battery faster & not help with performance... Still a good phone though! Might be worth waiting for P8 if you're worried about that one :)
I’ve been an apple user for decades. But their phones always look the same and the experience always feels the same. I want to try something different. So today I ordered this pixel 7. Was on sale new on Amazon today for 449 usd. Excited to try it. I’ll keep my 13 pro max just incase but I’m getting bored with apple
@@aliciaclark617 you gotta sign up for the beta thru Google then download the beta for your phone after it's pretty easy. But Android 14 released on the 8th so you don't have to do it anymore unless you want to try out the beta for other reasons
Tough choice! Hardware-wise I don't think you can justify all the extra money for the Pixel. So I'd say pick the Pixel only if the Computational photography and minimalistic looking software present on it are important to you. Otherwise the S21 FE is more than adequate for sure.
Hey brother, GREAT REVIEW! Sunt pe cale să-mi achiziționez și eu zilele astea un pixel 7 și aș vrea o ultimă opinie referitor la experiența ta cu acest model! Really appreciate the video!💯✌️
iI have used pixel 7 for one year. Everything is working great except the battery. The phone runs out battery in 3 days with less use. If active use such as gps, it will run out in half day.
In terms of the design I'm probably in the minority but I prefer the look of the 6 to the 7 I liked the 2 tone colours the glass camera bar all I didn't like is the gloss and how slippery it is which they've only just gone away from with the 8pro but kept the solid colour well my 6p is great I'll stick with that see what they do with the 9
About 10 months now. And well if you want the bigger display and x5 zoom lens go with Pixel 7 Pro. Otherwise there aren't really any notable differences.
I got the 7A. Most of what you said here applies to the 7A as well. You didn't mention the #1 con - the charging speed is just unacceptably slow, with overnight charging now mandatory. If you forget to do so, you'll not survive the next day without some panic.
Yeah that's a good point. It is super slow to charge and so you're right in the morning. If you forgotten to charge it when you wake up, you're in trouble
such an amazing review - crisp and clean - could you please also share your perspective on the haptics of this phone - i have heard this phone has one of the best haptics - but would love to know your thoughts on it 😊
Thank you very muchi! And I gotta say the haptics feel just right. They don't stand out at all, which I guess is a good thing right? Being very seamless.
For me it is impossible to use this phone with 5G, overheats, camera wont allow clicking or recording videos, and you can see battery percentage going down, It's a perfect phone if you're mostly on WiFi
That's interesting. Do you have any issues with the camera if you don't use 5G (and if its not overheating)? If you still experiencing it, I'm thinking it might be something wrong with your particular phone.
@@MihaiStrömpl all good if i turn off 5G, and I'm using this phone with LTE only, still its a phone that costs $599 and had to turn off 5G to use it, lol , it does heatsup in video calls, that's the only scenario for overheating other than 5G, My colleague has a P7P and its the same with him as well, so its not with my particular unit
I am thinking of picking Pixel 7. It's half the price of Pixel 8 and iphone 15. I am using OnePlus 6 and I don't think I can keep it for another year. I just want it to be reliable. Pixel 7 is a great deal.
Fair point. I wouldn't say it's got a bad selfie cam at all, what i noticed is the minimum focus distance is pretty big. So if you're close to it it'll be focused on the background instead of you
@@MihaiStrömpl true. Makes your face very smooth , without any details. And battery is average, plus i live in a relative high temperature country so heating issue is there too and sometimes it touches 50°C while im just watching some youtube.
Well sadly Google stopped support for our pixel 3a phones (very good phone with excellent camera). After considering again android Vs apple we bought the pixel 7a phones at a fantastic price (Christmas 2023). They will arrive in the next few days. Your video just reconfirmed for me that the pixel was the right decision. Thanks.
My older pixel died because of CPU core warming or something like that. So my main concerns is that these Tensor CPUs are not well optimized. They warm a lot until they fail in 2 years.
Hi Mihai, Amazing review man. Just wanted to know any heating issue that you noticed after prolonged usage as there are a lot of complaints for Pixel 7a.
Hi Mihai, great review it helped me a lot. Just one question, is it worth to buy it now?? I have the budget for the pixel 7 and pixel 8 will obviously gonna be on higher side in terms of cost.
Hey man, thanks a lot! You might wanna wait. True the Pixel 8 might come in pricier but maybe the Pixel 7 will get discounted further when the 8 is launched. Cheers!
Pixel 7 has touch issues. Phone suddenly partially stops responding to touch. You need to restart to resolve the issue only the issue reappears a few hours later. You don't know when this bug will strike.
The standby drain is horrible, the phone feels like a brick (heavy and thick), charging speeds are slow af and the screen could be better. I even have barely any apps installed. I just use my phone for spotify, some photos and a few youtube videos. The only thing thats keeping me from buying a S23 is the pixel camera and the software.
I just got my pixel 7 a couple weeks ago and had the same issues you were having battery drain on stand by doing nothing over heating battery I dealt with that for a day then decided to install Android 14 beta after doing some research and it has solved all the issues I was having I recommend you do the same might also fix your issues.
@@lonegamer6454 well I just installed the beta yesterday. It's kinda the same. It has more to do so with the chip. It's just a downgrade to what I had previously.
@@asdfghjklaa784 I would still hold out hope for the full release of 14 on October 8th. I agree the new silicon is not mature you might have got a bad batch of silicon as well who knows. I upgraded from the pixel 3a xl so it's a world of difference for me but if you came from like a Samsung S20 or 21 I can see your point
Great review mate! I just want to ask if its still working good? Do you think the phone's back panel color plays any role in thermals....like an obsidian one might get hot faster than a snow one?
Thanks man! Greatly appreciated. The phone still works really good, just got the Android 14 update and its got some new perks even (no major redesign though). Also regarding the color, I'd say the only scenario in which I think it might make a small difference, is if you're using it for navigation and there's direct sunlight into its' back, the Obsidian version would technically get a bit warmer.
Glad i came across this. I was an iphone user for 10 years. 2 years ago i switched back to samsung .. im due for an upgrade in a month or so .. and im just wanting something different from iphone or samsung. Im seriously considering the pixel 7 .. however im also tempted to wait for the 8 .. so thats where im stuck at right now.
Details have started to come out about the Pixel 8. So far though I don't expect a whole lot to change, mostly improvements directly related to the new, more powerful processor. Might as well wait though :)
Although I love the phone for what it offers it's just not good enough. For heavy users the battery is just bad. Charging is slow, there are always issues that come with every new update and it's the matter of luck whether you get a problem free phone. Hoping that 8 will be improvement.
Since my July update on my 7 pro ,100% is about 21 hours total, and I can usually get about 8 - 9 hrs of screen on time.. google did right by this update
Pixel 7 was the perfect phone for me for about a week... Great performance but the battery life was awful... Never even made it through half a day! And this is with the phone sitting in my pocket not being used for hours... If they fix the battery life on the pixel 8 I'm sure to buying instead of the pro model. Google really needs to differentiate the 7 from the 7a a bit more on their next generations, same way apple does it with their pro phones!
Weird, because mine with active usage lasts easily for a full day and even more sometimes. I use mine A LOT. Perhaps, you have bad network services in your region.
@@_Joel_ if you have a bad carrier your phone will be struggling to search for the network all the time. I had this problem in Ireland in the small city. Now I live in Canada and have no problems with battery life
What about the heating issues? Is that still a thing or did google resolve it? I'm thinking of getting a Pixel 7. Also, how much screen on time are you getting?
I'd say I'm getting around 5h screen on time, plus or minus 30min. Also I wouldn't say it's getting too toasty. Sure it gets warm when you use it but I really don't think it's a problem at all
@@abhijithu6766I have a pixel 7, but if I had the extra money to spend, I'd probably get a Nothing 2. The pixel 7 was simply more affordable by 100 or 200 dollars depending on where.
The worst experience with a cellphone I ever have had. It is the perfect smartphone if it works. Mine 7 pro started to keep losing network. This is well well-known non-repairable failure which OEM does not want to speak about. The only solution is to replace the motherboard. Lesson learnt. Never again. As there are no big choices between HW and software makers (only Google and Apple) the option is currently only one - iPhone.
I love it! It was a big upgrade when I upgraded from the Samsung Galaxy s10e. It's features and blow the iPhone away. That is a very good phone. Also, on the refurbished market nobody buys a phone brand new unless you're in the suburbs. Everybody buys the phone this 2 years older to come out. Do Verizon or T-Mobile for way cheaper? I'll buy refurbished. I bought it refurbished excellent and it is excellent. It looks brand new. I'm blown away by its features. Its features are not on any other phone. It is a very flagship phone. The consumer has missed the game up like a iPhone. It's made in China. It cost about $80 to produce and people will pay $800 and it's not worth that. No phone is worth that
I love this phone it's so fast and has badass features, I just got mine brand new a week ago but the battery life on it is the worst out of the past few phones l've had. I even turned off all the background processes I could, use adaptive battery, even with standard battery saver mode turned on it still drains like none of that tweaking I did to save battery even mattered. What's weird is I spent a day messing around on the phone before I moved my SIM card over to it from my previous phone and that whole day the battery would barely go down AT ALL, but it was like as soon as it had actual service once I put my SIM card in the thing drains battery like it's life depends on it. Any tips would be great, but I'm pretty sure l've already done most of the battery saving tips possible from combing Reddit and google, and I'm pretty tech saavy in general and I've even stopped other unnecessary background process bloat through developer options. It's like there's literally nothing else I can change to make the battery last longer to my knowledge that I haven't already done. And what's worse is even when I go to sleep when the phone is locked and not being used I'll wake up to it to find it drops like 20% or more just sitting there locked overnight l've never had a phone drain that bad while not even using it.
@@ridgeeeey4222 yes actually after a week or two the battery somehow started lasting 2 or 3 times longer. I read other ppl say it takes time to callibate itself right but yep thankfully mine did
Its a good phone, but its not an iPhone killer by any means. The galaxy ultra phones are better and more premium but the p7p has some great software features, and great point and shoot photo taking.
Ive had a pixel 7 dor many months now and i dint think its worth the £450ish i paid. Ever since the latest update I've had a massive problem with battery drain while using 5G. If its turned on tye mobile gets extremely hot too. Never used to be an issue. The finger print sensor under the screen isnt great. Reularly doesnt recognize my finger print and only works in one particular way despite having mapped my entire finger print. Also if you use at night and you dont get your finger print spot on the sensor you get blinded by the bright white light. Also annoyingly if using a 4 PIN code as backup into phone instead of unlocking when you enter the correct 4 numbers you have to then press the confirm button which is an extra button. Doesnt sound like it should be annoying but it is when you have to use it quite often. Facial recognition to unlock mobile isnt great either. Basically my Honor Play had better ones of each of these and that mobile is like 5 years old or so. Also finger print sensor doesnt work when finger gets wet so out in the rain or even after a shower when the fingervis dry its hit n miss. There are other issues too but im thinking of switching phones
Sorry to hear about your experience with it, but definitely good input to have. One small side note, I am using it on 4G LTE as 5G on the Pixel isn't supported here, maybe that why I'm not experiencing battery issues or overheating too much. And the fingerprint reader is decent but not the best out there indeed, partly why I have both face detect & the fingerprint combo activated, but it's not something that bothered me too much.
It's an amazing deal for 500. I agree with your sentiments, I think too many people are comparing it to flaship models like the s23 etc @@youdontseeanoldmanhavinatw4904
Rocking the 9h spigen screen protector and 10/10 fingerprint WORKING. Battery Life about 6h sot. Was very sceptical before buying It cause of the rewiews but at the end of the day the rewiews are bs
well said, Leo. I also saw through all the bs. It's a solid phone, Google are eating into Apple's market share with this, dragging people over to Android. It worked with me, this is my first Android phone since 2013. Back then, Android was slow and buggy compared to iphones. I am very happy with the progress that has been made since then, hence the switch. @@LeonidasTheKingOfSparta
Hello , i have bought pixel 7 28th sep i used 4 days till now but i have seen proximity and under display fingerprint sensor in sunlight when am using the phone. Is that issue or not ?
Awesome! Congrats on the purchase. And yes that's totally normal, it is visible in certain direct sunlight conditions, and makes it an interesting sight lol.
@@MihaiStrömplThank you. I've never had a phone that does wireless charging but currently the 7 is on sale - down from $AU999 to $AU699 for the 128GB version. Might need to research wireless chargers. I saw a review of the 7 where it showed it on a Google charger which looked nice.
@@youdontseeanoldmanhavinatw4904 I have the Pixel 7 and the speakers are quite bad, thin sounding and with distortion on higher volume. Many other owners have the same experience. They really sound cheap. My point of comparison is my old iPhone 12 and it sounds much fuller.
I’m just confused between the Pixel 7 and nothing phone 2. Currently I use a Pixel 4a which is great, just that battery has aged and I am not getting a full day battery life.
I plan to do a Pixel 7 and Pixel 8 comparison video but that being said, the camera on the 7 is for sure solid and in most cases I dont think you'll notice a difference between the two. Not to mention the great price you can now find it at :)
They finally admitted they are using an exinos chipset. We knew this since Samsung makes the phone. But they tried to say tensor was in house made. It never was they use the overheating and power hungry exinos chips. They are not any good. Pixel 10 is supposed to actually have a Google made chip.
I just read that, thanks! Well that's a bit deceiving... Using Samsung foundries is one thing (No one actually produces their own processors), but the chip basically being an Exynos is another lol

Moved to a pixel 7 after my Samsung got the green screen of death, only issue after a month of use is the battery and how hot it gets when charging.
is the heat annoying ? like does the phone get too hot ?

I prefer to buy phones that are "failures" over phones that are "successes". In the last 18 months I bought a new iPhone SE 2020, a new Samsung A53 5G and a Pixel 6a at half price for different members of my family. I got them all for half price because they had had poor reviews. There is nothing wrong with the design of any of these 3 phones.
Nice strategy
Only major negative I've had with Pixel 7 is lack of 5g support in my country (absolutely ridiculous). Minor negatives - had to buy new PD charger because old charger worked sometimes and then didn't. Picture-in Picture for UA-cam only works via browser work-around, and weirdly via the app for one obscure UA-cam channel that I spend most of my time with. This is common to most Android phones now because Google wants you to pay for UA-cam Premium, but my old Honor still allows it.
Use UA-cam re vanced
It's a pretty nice review that you have performed with a calm and relaxing presentation of all the pros and cons. You took pause and put words which makes more sense better than every other UA-camrs who are trying to pretend to be warm, energetic, and enthusiastic. Happy to see your video and happy means...
Thanks a lot! :)
I just picked up a refurbished model for $379CAD ($279USD)!!! It only has a couple of tiny marks on it, and otherwise feels 100% new. For that price, it feels like a total steal. Really enjoying it so far, its a big upgrade over my outgoing Xiaomi Mi 9t (although that was a beast in its own right.)
Wow great price!
Ordered mine this morning and now randomly found this video. Great review, but the black cat moment for me as a black cat own... servant was pure joy. Can't wait ❤❤❤
Awesome to hear! And thanks so much :)
Nice video. Subscribed cause the count was at 999 and I didn’t want to miss that opportunity 😅
Haha awesome mate thank you!
I'm still rocking the Pixel 4a. Of course the Pixel 7 looks like a nice phone but I'm not seeing anything that has me reaching for the buy button. I don't have any scratches or cracks and I've taken good care of the battery so I'll probably wait to see that the 8 looks like.
Nice to hear really. There's no reason to change your phone every time a new one comes out, so that's a very healthy mentality.
@@MihaiStrömpl it really is. But I still can't wait to see the 8!
I too am still using the 4a for more than 2.5 years. No other issues, just that the battery has degraded. So I am considering getting a Pixel 7. Love the form factor of 4a though.
@@swadhinsatpathy4527 I've kept my charge between about 20 and 80 (most of the time) and my battery is still doing really well. Also heat is a battery killer. I try to charge mine on a conductive surface such as a granite countertop or metal or glass desk or cabinet--these surfaces absorb all the heat, the battery stays healthy, and it charges faster.
Thanks Mihai for this seemingly very honest and open review. Well thought out, I really feel like you've actually used this phone for months (which I don't get from other reviews). You convinced me to go for the Pixel 7, but I'll wait for Black Friday for a nice discount. Thanks again!
Thanks a lot man, glad you found it useful! :) And checking out the new prices of the Pixel 8, Yeah I'd say a Pixel 7 on discount is probably the sweetest deal to find.
I'm a really big apple fan , but since that phone came out my opinions are changed , this phone has much more better design than iPhones. Btw I appreciate your honest reviews!!!
A shame the support is half as long
Thanks a lot!
Im loving my pixel 7 Pro no complaints. And obviously the camera 📸 is great. If I ever come up with an issue I will address it until then its all good 💯💯💯💯
Awesome to hear!
Turning off 5G and switching to 4G/LTE vastly improves battery life on the Pixel 7.
I currently have the samsung s20 FE 5G. I don't know if its defective or what, but the camera is awful. It always has a blurry halo around whatever I'm taking a picture of. I'm really leaning towards a Pixel 7 as an upgrade! :D

Nice review. One thing I am curious about heating issue reported by many on the internet. Is it really a serious issue?
Not a serious issue necessarily, but it'll age the battery faster & not help with performance... Still a good phone though! Might be worth waiting for P8 if you're worried about that one :)
I wouldn't say its a serious issue at all. However if you plan on using 5G, it might be worse than my experience. I couldn't test 5G yet.
I’ve been an apple user for decades. But their phones always look the same and the experience always feels the same. I want to try something different. So today I ordered this pixel 7. Was on sale new on Amazon today for 449 usd. Excited to try it. I’ll keep my 13 pro max just incase but I’m getting bored with apple
Awesome choice and quite a valid reason. Sometimes you just need to switch it up a bit :). Hope you enjoy it!
Upgrade to the pixel 14 beta makes the phone even better and makes the battery last even longer
@@lonegamer6454 how do you do that
Do you like the switch ? I have the iPhone 12 and just ordered the pixel 7
@@aliciaclark617 you gotta sign up for the beta thru Google then download the beta for your phone after it's pretty easy. But Android 14 released on the 8th so you don't have to do it anymore unless you want to try out the beta for other reasons
Bro in india... Now bbd sale is coming where S21 FE we are getting at 29999 and pixel 7 37000 almost.... Which one to take
Please reply asap
Tough choice! Hardware-wise I don't think you can justify all the extra money for the Pixel. So I'd say pick the Pixel only if the Computational photography and minimalistic looking software present on it are important to you. Otherwise the S21 FE is more than adequate for sure.
Same question for me. I'm leaning more towards Pixel 7 because of the clean android experience and just tired of looking at Samsungs OneUi....

Hey brother, GREAT REVIEW!
Sunt pe cale să-mi achiziționez și eu zilele astea un pixel 7 și aș vrea o ultimă opinie referitor la experiența ta cu acest model! Really appreciate the video!💯✌️
Thanks brother :) Experienta mea cu Pixel 7 continua sa fie placuta, deci pot sa-l recomand in continuare!
iI have used pixel 7 for one year. Everything is working great except the battery. The phone runs out battery in 3 days with less use. If active use such as gps, it will run out in half day.
thats why you can chqrge the phone lol
you still have the phone ? did you face any heating issues ?
In terms of the design I'm probably in the minority but I prefer the look of the 6 to the 7 I liked the 2 tone colours the glass camera bar all I didn't like is the gloss and how slippery it is which they've only just gone away from with the 8pro but kept the solid colour well my 6p is great I'll stick with that see what they do with the 9
I seriously hope fingers crossed 🤞 they bring the black camera bar back with a Matt Glass 2 toned back!!!!
@@katinasoutherland7693maybe on the pixel 9😊
How long you have been using this phone..? which is better Pixel 7 or pixel 7 pro
About 10 months now. And well if you want the bigger display and x5 zoom lens go with Pixel 7 Pro. Otherwise there aren't really any notable differences.
@@MihaiStrömpl Thankyou for your prompt reply 👍
I got the 7A. Most of what you said here applies to the 7A as well. You didn't mention the #1 con - the charging speed is just unacceptably slow, with overnight charging now mandatory. If you forget to do so, you'll not survive the next day without some panic.
Yeah that's a good point. It is super slow to charge and so you're right in the morning. If you forgotten to charge it when you wake up, you're in trouble
@@jejunamja half and hour of 30 watts charging give around 50% battery, the rest 50 takes time around 1 hour, so its not a very big deal
such an amazing review - crisp and clean - could you please also share your perspective on the haptics of this phone - i have heard this phone has one of the best haptics - but would love to know your thoughts on it 😊
Thank you very muchi! And I gotta say the haptics feel just right. They don't stand out at all, which I guess is a good thing right? Being very seamless.
USB to 3.5m adapter needs to be version with DAC, so yes that is the caviat :)
For me it is impossible to use this phone with 5G,
overheats, camera wont allow clicking or recording videos, and you can see battery percentage going down,
It's a perfect phone if you're mostly on WiFi
That's interesting. Do you have any issues with the camera if you don't use 5G (and if its not overheating)? If you still experiencing it, I'm thinking it might be something wrong with your particular phone.
@@MihaiStrömpl all good if i turn off 5G, and I'm using this phone with LTE only, still its a phone that costs $599 and had to turn off 5G to use it, lol , it does heatsup in video calls, that's the only scenario for overheating other than 5G, My colleague has a P7P and its the same with him as well, so its not with my particular unit
I am thinking of picking Pixel 7. It's half the price of Pixel 8 and iphone 15. I am using OnePlus 6 and I don't think I can keep it for another year. I just want it to be reliable. Pixel 7 is a great deal.
I just got mine it's great used on Amazon for 300 256gb model . What did you end up getting
This is the best review I have seen on the Pixel 7. Fantastic!
Thanks a ton!
im a pixel 7 pro user ive been loving the experience i have the a14 beta running on it other than the nifty few bugs its been great

@@jesmond5562 do you own a pixel 7? have you had any heating issues?
@@ridgeeeey4222 yeah
You skipped selfie camera's focus issue. I own pixel 7 pro and it has bad selfie cam.
Fair point. I wouldn't say it's got a bad selfie cam at all, what i noticed is the minimum focus distance is pretty big. So if you're close to it it'll be focused on the background instead of you
@@MihaiStrömpl true. Makes your face very smooth , without any details.
And battery is average, plus i live in a relative high temperature country so heating issue is there too and sometimes it touches 50°C while im just watching some youtube.
Well sadly Google stopped support for our pixel 3a phones (very good phone with excellent camera). After considering again android Vs apple we bought the pixel 7a phones at a fantastic price (Christmas 2023). They will arrive in the next few days. Your video just reconfirmed for me that the pixel was the right decision. Thanks.
The A version is nowhere near the same phone.
@@Broxty Oh well. The 'a' versions have been very good for us in the past, so fingers crossed. We only need for phone calls and photos/video. Cheers

Awesome, enjoy it!
My older pixel died because of CPU core warming or something like that. So my main concerns is that these Tensor CPUs are not well optimized. They warm a lot until they fail in 2 years.
Sorry to hear that
I am getting a pixel 7 128 GB for free for 2 years by my service provider. Should I go for it?
Sounds like a sweet deal
I’m gonna get my pixel 7 today can’t wait 😁

Did you get it?
How is your experience?
Hi Mihai, Amazing review man. Just wanted to know any heating issue that you noticed after prolonged usage as there are a lot of complaints for Pixel 7a.
what a beautiful review! great work
GREAT REVIEW OVER ALL REVIEWS IVE SEEN
Was pleased to see two favourite things in one vid - pixel and Romania.
Great to hear :)
Why do almost All presenters talk about fingerprints on the phone rear? Fit a cover/ protector! Simple. Cheap. Easy.
True, but some people like to carry their phones without a case/skin.
@@MihaiStrömplpsychos!
The Pixel 7 is my first Pixel ever. Everything's really good EXCEPT the antenna. For the life of me it suddenly just loses data signal.
Hi Mihai, great review it helped me a lot. Just one question, is it worth to buy it now?? I have the budget for the pixel 7 and pixel 8 will obviously gonna be on higher side in terms of cost.
Hey man, thanks a lot! You might wanna wait. True the Pixel 8 might come in pricier but maybe the Pixel 7 will get discounted further when the 8 is launched. Cheers!
Pixel 7 has touch issues. Phone suddenly partially stops responding to touch. You need to restart to resolve the issue only the issue reappears a few hours later. You don't know when this bug will strike.
The standby drain is horrible, the phone feels like a brick (heavy and thick), charging speeds are slow af and the screen could be better. I even have barely any apps installed. I just use my phone for spotify, some photos and a few youtube videos.
The only thing thats keeping me from buying a S23 is the pixel camera and the software.
I just got my pixel 7 a couple weeks ago and had the same issues you were having battery drain on stand by doing nothing over heating battery I dealt with that for a day then decided to install Android 14 beta after doing some research and it has solved all the issues I was having I recommend you do the same might also fix your issues.
@@lonegamer6454 well I just installed the beta yesterday. It's kinda the same. It has more to do so with the chip. It's just a downgrade to what I had previously.
@@asdfghjklaa784 I would still hold out hope for the full release of 14 on October 8th. I agree the new silicon is not mature you might have got a bad batch of silicon as well who knows. I upgraded from the pixel 3a xl so it's a world of difference for me but if you came from like a Samsung S20 or 21 I can see your point
I do agree the design could be a bit more polished/ slimmed down. But as you said, the software and camera I believe are where it shines.
I had the pixel 7 for like a month and went back to iPhone. The battery was awful
Great review mate! I just want to ask if its still working good? Do you think the phone's back panel color plays any role in thermals....like an obsidian one might get hot faster than a snow one?
Thanks man! Greatly appreciated. The phone still works really good, just got the Android 14 update and its got some new perks even (no major redesign though). Also regarding the color, I'd say the only scenario in which I think it might make a small difference, is if you're using it for navigation and there's direct sunlight into its' back, the Obsidian version would technically get a bit warmer.
surprised you didnt talk about the slow charging (1 hour and 40 minutes) and the overheating problems
I did mention the charging speed. As far as the overheating goes, I haven't really experienced it.
A new subscriber now! Great review! Clean and clear! ❤
Which one is better. iPhone 13 or pixel 7
Glad i came across this. I was an iphone user for 10 years. 2 years ago i switched back to samsung .. im due for an upgrade in a month or so .. and im just wanting something different from iphone or samsung. Im seriously considering the pixel 7 .. however im also tempted to wait for the 8 .. so thats where im stuck at right now.
Same here. The price is so much better on the 7 though.
I'd say wait for the 8. If it sucked then at least the more stable pixel 7 would be cheaper that it is now.
Details have started to come out about the Pixel 8. So far though I don't expect a whole lot to change, mostly improvements directly related to the new, more powerful processor. Might as well wait though :)
I’m coming from iphone 12 to the pixel 7
@@aliciaclark617 how is it
Thank you. Buying my 7 today brand new( $365 ). Its a steal .
Wow, awesome price, congrats!
did you like it ? did you face any heating issues?
Although I love the phone for what it offers it's just not good enough. For heavy users the battery is just bad. Charging is slow, there are always issues that come with every new update and it's the matter of luck whether you get a problem free phone. Hoping that 8 will be improvement.
Valid points indeed
Since my July update on my 7 pro ,100% is about 21 hours total, and I can usually get about 8 - 9 hrs of screen on time.. google did right by this update
Still adjusting on its own cause a week old pixel 7, getting almost 6.5 hours of screen on time
Amazing review! Props. Very knowledgeable
Thanks a lot man!
Honestly? Not having a headphone jack used to annoy the crap out of me...but! I think in 2023 blue tooth technology is so good that it doesn't matter.
I do agree with that. It got quite good lately.
Pixel 7 was the perfect phone for me for about a week... Great performance but the battery life was awful... Never even made it through half a day! And this is with the phone sitting in my pocket not being used for hours...
If they fix the battery life on the pixel 8 I'm sure to buying instead of the pro model.
Google really needs to differentiate the 7 from the 7a a bit more on their next generations, same way apple does it with their pro phones!
Weird, because mine with active usage lasts easily for a full day and even more sometimes. I use mine A LOT. Perhaps, you have bad network services in your region.

Also, amazing review.

Thank you for the chapter review
The worst experience with a cellphone I ever have had. It is the perfect smartphone if it works. Mine 7 pro started to keep losing network. This is well well-known non-repairable failure which OEM does not want to speak about. The only solution is to replace the motherboard. Lesson learnt. Never again. As there are no big choices between HW and software makers (only Google and Apple) the option is currently only one - iPhone.
Auch! Sorry to hear, that does sound like quite a bad experience.
I love it! It was a big upgrade when I upgraded from the Samsung Galaxy s10e. It's features and blow the iPhone away. That is a very good phone. Also, on the refurbished market nobody buys a phone brand new unless you're in the suburbs. Everybody buys the phone this 2 years older to come out. Do Verizon or T-Mobile for way cheaper? I'll buy refurbished. I bought it refurbished excellent and it is excellent. It looks brand new. I'm blown away by its features. Its features are not on any other phone. It is a very flagship phone. The consumer has missed the game up like a iPhone. It's made in China. It cost about $80 to produce and people will pay $800 and it's not worth that. No phone is worth that
Good review dude, keep em coming!!
Thanks a lot!
Fantastic, thorough review! Keep them coming. Thank you!
You bet!
I love this phone it's so fast and has badass features, I just got mine brand new a week ago but the battery life on it is the worst out of the past few phones l've had. I even turned off all the background processes I could, use adaptive battery, even with standard battery saver mode turned on it still drains like none of that tweaking I did to save battery even mattered. What's weird is I spent a day messing around on the phone before I moved my SIM card over to it from my previous phone and that whole day the battery would barely go down AT ALL, but it was like as soon as it had actual service once I put my SIM card in the thing drains battery like it's life depends on it. Any tips would be great, but I'm pretty sure l've already done most of the battery saving tips possible from combing Reddit and google, and I'm pretty tech saavy in general and I've even stopped other unnecessary background process bloat through developer options. It's like there's literally nothing else I can change to make the battery last longer to my knowledge that I haven't already done. And what's worse is even when I go to sleep when the phone is locked and not being used I'll wake up to it to find it drops like 20% or more just sitting there locked overnight l've never had a phone drain that bad while not even using it.
hey , did the battery get better overtime ? and did you face any heating issues ?
@@ridgeeeey4222 yes actually after a week or two the battery somehow started lasting 2 or 3 times longer. I read other ppl say it takes time to callibate itself right but yep thankfully mine did
Its a good phone, but its not an iPhone killer by any means. The galaxy ultra phones are better and more premium but the p7p has some great software features, and great point and shoot photo taking.
It destroys any iphone under 14 pro with ease.
The best review watch it ever , especially the photos something different, i like it ❤
Great 👍
Thanks a lot!
Ive had a pixel 7 dor many months now and i dint think its worth the £450ish i paid. Ever since the latest update I've had a massive problem with battery drain while using 5G. If its turned on tye mobile gets extremely hot too. Never used to be an issue.
The finger print sensor under the screen isnt great. Reularly doesnt recognize my finger print and only works in one particular way despite having mapped my entire finger print. Also if you use at night and you dont get your finger print spot on the sensor you get blinded by the bright white light.
Also annoyingly if using a 4 PIN code as backup into phone instead of unlocking when you enter the correct 4 numbers you have to then press the confirm button which is an extra button. Doesnt sound like it should be annoying but it is when you have to use it quite often.
Facial recognition to unlock mobile isnt great either. Basically my Honor Play had better ones of each of these and that mobile is like 5 years old or so.
Also finger print sensor doesnt work when finger gets wet so out in the rain or even after a shower when the fingervis dry its hit n miss.
There are other issues too but im thinking of switching phones
Sorry to hear about your experience with it, but definitely good input to have. One small side note, I am using it on 4G LTE as 5G on the Pixel isn't supported here, maybe that why I'm not experiencing battery issues or overheating too much. And the fingerprint reader is decent but not the best out there indeed, partly why I have both face detect & the fingerprint combo activated, but it's not something that bothered me too much.
For 500 I think it's a great phone. It's not a 1000 dollar flagship, it's not gonna feel like one.
It's an amazing deal for 500. I agree with your sentiments, I think too many people are comparing it to flaship models like the s23 etc

I plan to do a Pixel 7 and Pixel 8 comparison video but that being said, the camera on the 7 is for sure solid and in most cases I dont think you'll notice a difference between the two. Not to mention the great price you can now find it at :)
They finally admitted they are using an exinos chipset. We knew this since Samsung makes the phone. But they tried to say tensor was in house made. It never was they use the overheating and power hungry exinos chips. They are not any good. Pixel 10 is supposed to actually have a Google made chip.
I just read that, thanks! Well that's a bit deceiving... Using Samsung foundries is one thing (No one actually produces their own processors), but the chip basically being an Exynos is another lol
Is it worth upgrading to pixel 9 from pixel 7?
