Tpying this from a pixel 7a and i bought this device only for the camera and google software experience. Love it honestly. I usually take a picture, if its dull (bcoz of the environment), i go to edit and select dynamic. Google photos have superb editing options.
Me too. Been using it for a over a week now and the experience is unmatched. The camera is nice and sharp, performance is enough. Best part installations from play store are super quick, no lags whatsoever. I am loving mine so far.
Steven, I absolutely LOVE how you review Pixels (particularly the 7a) from a photographer/videography perspective. I'm only a hobbyist, but the camera is one of the primary reasons that I choose my phones, and I just downgraded from the Pixel 6 Pro (which takes darn good pics but the connectivity is HORRIBLE) to the Pixel 7a, and I am just as pleased with the 7a as I have been with all other Pixels I've owned (Original, the P4, and the P6Pro). I most appreciate how you approach these types of review with an open mind, without allowing a bias for either iOS or Android creep in. PLEASE...keep up the great work!!!
@@ZuiverAirTechnologies Sometimes I stand a foot or two away from the subject and then use the 2x zoom on the 7a to reframe tighten up the focus, which also...sometimes...creates a nice boneh effect. Other times I'll just use the main lens and Portrait mode.
These videos have been awesome! Started following your channel because I myself purchased a Pixel 7a and really like it and your camera comparisons are some of the best I've seen! Keep the good content coming man! New Sub btw
I'm a pixel guy and still use my 5, will probably upgrade to the 8. But...I think googles image processing has got softer over the years. Used to have a more HDR detailed look that I preferred. I find the front camera especially on my pixel softer than older pixel models I have and less detailed. The images from the 7a look similar. Almost like there is skin smoothing or beautification going on even when turned off.
Bingo! Upgraded from pixel 2xl to pixel 6. Well I am disappointed to say the least. My pixel 2xl is sharp and gives better results as compared to pixel 6 which is soft in comparison.
Pixel wins for me. I'm actually rather disappointed with the iPhone 14 Pro's cameras (I preferred 13 Pro). So I just got a Pixel 7a and I'm very happy. The only downside with Pixel 7a is video recording in low light - not one phone does it really well, but iPhone 14 Pro does better than Pixel 7a in this regard.
2:14 *Iphone is blowing out the highlights.* Pixel's HDR is dope especially in photos. Those dual exposure HDR sliders and temp sliders make it more fun.
@@StevenDivish yeah it's and we still have a pending video from you😁 lenses you used on the iPhone 14.i could still remember you said you will give it a try on the s23U
This is a great insight about what a Google phone can do. Steven, can you also review the Sony Xperia 1 V and do a comparison? Thank you! Great video overall. 👏
With the portrait mode the iPhone can actually adjust photos taken in portrait mode later on. Different blur, even disabling it. But it cannot make a portrait photo from something that never has been portrait...
The big difference in photos for Iphone is that it shows alot more clarity and details, it must be way more megapixels. The difference at 6:38 in details is huge
This is just very aggressive sharpening being applied here, not true details. It looks fake and terrible IMO. I prefer the less software sharpening in the Pixel photo. If you like over processed look to photos, it is easy to apply sharpening, but impossible to take it off an image.
Can't wait to get a hold of pixel 8 series! Hopefully it will be available soon :) Yes the telephoto shots were made with 70-200 and some with 90mm macro lens
Yes it gets hot but nothing crazy from my experience that affected its performance. Though I might be living in not so hot climate, but I faced no problem.
I know it's a little late but a very good review, I don't know if you could tell me about the photos at night where the rays of neon and LED light hit the faces and good photos don't come out. On iPhone I know it doesn't happen much but on other brands it does. So I don't know if this pixel 7a handles the rays of lights well like in bars and doesn't cover faces.
Man you are doing a great job .. your review are far better than any other vloggers...❤️ which external mic arw you using? Could you please fo a comparison of insta 360 flow and dji osmo 2?
Wow. .Really liked the review. Most youtubers just do a review which won't make u buy the phone but you focussed on its software which was an eye opener. .That is why leave the camera review for professionals who can do justice to the review.. Just give some more time to pixels and iPhone is gone to dustbin..
If only I could get a hold of that phone..Don't you think that it seems that it's more like a concept product available only to a selected amount of people? I couldn't find it anywhere. Thank you so much for watching and taking your time to comment!
I have watched several reviews of Pixel 7a but this on is the best.,!!! I have seen Pixel 7a's have some battery issues and phone getting hot and camera shutting down issues? I am confused if I should buy this phone (just for the camera) ? will S21 Ulta ( non FE ) will be a good choice or OnePlus 10 Pro?
Is pixel the only phone that let u change white balance in main photo app (not in pro mode). I think so. very important to me. In Samsung if i go pro mode, picture lots the computation photography (no HDR)
Hmm..I can not say on behalf of all phones to be honest, but I love the option of adjusting the White Balance for photos and videos especially, it's a must have in my opinion!
Google pixel did great noice cancellation job, video quality was not so bad either compared to iphone 14 pro, So pixel7a its really a value for money phone !
Hmm…software wise-fix wide angle distortion if possible and add a full manual mode with shutter speed/ISO manual control. With hardware-lenses with better coatings to avoid chromatic aberrations(but it’s a very minor thing imo)
In my opinion these are small differences on camera come on people ya want a big difference on photo quality get ya a 5,000 dollar digital camera with expensive lenses
Unfortunately not even remotely close to what the Pixel 7a offers…on iPhone you can adjust only blur strength on the photos that you took in portrait mode. On the pixel you can make a portrait shot out of any photo, change not only the blur strength but also control the focal point what is in focus and what’s not…
Right, I also love Pixel phones, especially the A series, but unfortunately I do not have them because of the slow charging, which is disastrous Thanks ❤
hello!!! It's like comparing a Mercedes with a Dacia...but seeing that it's worth more than half the iPhone...the pixel 7a does an excellent job. I prefer the pixel. good video
I would mention it, but I had no problem, yes the phone got warm, but nothing crazy to be honest. Maybe it’s because of my climate, and if I were in hotter environments it would be a problem. But so far all is good

Can more affordable options like the Pixel 7a challenge the camera experience of the pricier iPhone 14 Pro? What do you think?

Absolutely true man. I am using the pixel 6 pro, and most of the time, the images look kinda like painting pictures
Bingo! Upgraded from pixel 2xl to pixel 6. Well I am disappointed to say the least. My pixel 2xl is sharp and gives better results as compared to pixel 6 which is soft in comparison.
Because of tensor soc , snapdragon isp is better than the new tensor models
Switch to raw image you will get the best shot in hdr . You'll find it under folder name RAW. IF YOU HAPPEN TO BUY NEW PIXEL 8.
This video deserve more than 1 million views. You are simply a great reviewer I've seen!
Thank you! That means a lot 🙌🏼
i liked how you explained that exposure lock feature so smoothly
that peacock is a paid actor lol . awesome video yet again steven divish loved it . pixel 7a for the win .

Brought me in with the suggestions for video exposure. Nice! 👍🏿

I've got the pixel 6a for my work and am amazed how great the quality of the camera's and software is.
It will be much better to add a low light comparison too! Great video anyways!
Thanks for the tip!
Low light comparison is what shows the true power of how good a camera is

Yes I agree, they really nailed the software part of the phone too! The tech Feels ahead of its time almost
Pixel audio definitely sounds a little muffled compared to iphone, however it does a much better job at canceling out the background noise.
Yes I noticed that in the shop. Loudspeakers not good.
yes!
Yeah i definitely prefer the pixel im going invest in a pixel 7 a have been mulling it over
I think it's because of noise cancellation at work, with iPhone you can hear much background noise of vehicles Where as pixel 7a it filtered it out!
2:14 *Iphone is blowing out the highlights.*
Pixel's HDR is dope especially in photos. Those dual exposure HDR sliders and temp sliders make it more fun.

It’s crazy that you have peacocks in your city. We have pigeons and crows, maybe some sparrows here and there. That’s sick.
The software before was much more aggressive in hdr Now it is very subtle wanting to do more embellishment than it really is.
Thanks for the video. Looking forward to buying a pixel 7a in the near future.
Tak toto je konečne super porovnanie 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Bro your video quality is super!!!! What camera do you use for recording??
Thank you so much! I used Sony 7iv for this video! Now I also got the ZVE10 so I will be using it as well onwards
The red glow behind the images makes the comparison a tad bit harder. It's easier to compare completely still frames of photos.
Thank you! I agree and noted, I will adjust further in the next videos!
you can also slide to Zoom when you're recording. . I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE GOOGLE PIXEL 7A RIGHT NOW 100%
The HDR ON THE PIXEL IS UNBELIEVABLE 2:20

iPhone selfie camera is fantastic in this video. It’s funny to compare them together 😂
Super informative and helpful 🍁 Sub immediately 🥳
You should do an Xperia 1 V, it has bad auto processing but on manual mode it unlocks a beast.
Good work bro 👍
What about battery timing..🤔
Thank you! I’m not a heavy phone user so iPhone used to last me about 1.5-2 days. Pixel is good for a full day
Overcast condition is easiest condition for any phone camera, you should have done at night to see real difference
2:09 the audio sounds more natural on iPhone only because there's the sound reduction option not because it's better😅
So informative by the way
Which app do you use for video in pixel phone at 05:01 time stamp
Thank you!
This is insta360 app for the gimbal
Enjoyable content from Inter player, Barella🤗

iPhone also has voice isolation mode but you need to toggle it in the control center while the camera app is open

Can u please give any other tips of the google pixel 7A please?
so we will just ignore the fact that the flagship phone lacks in any audio isolation feature and a mid range 7a cancels 80% of any noise?
seen so much of the exposure problem on iphone, i really like the exposure locking on pixel
For me its the white balance and temp adjustments...
A great photo can be taken with any phone you want, just study how to take it.
The phone itself can't make a difference, the photographer does.
You can adjust the bokeh and blur effect on the iPhone tho, both the foreground and the background
Not as indepth as on 499$ pixel...
a comparison video without comparisons
imagine a phone with iphone camera hardware and pixel camera software,

What are the things that they should improve?

With hardware-lenses with better coatings to avoid chromatic aberrations(but it’s a very minor thing imo)

I want to purchase bw 7 or 7a which one you suggest me?

What camera did you shoot this video with?
all gear listed in description
iPhone 14 pro has the ability to edit the blur level and portrait lighting in portrait mode too
