Google Pixel 7 Pro Smartphone Review

Highlights

  2. Under the hood, the phone equips the Android 13 out of the box, which brings lots of new custom functions.
  3. As for the hardware end, the improved 5nm Google Tensor G2 chipset appears inside the phone to boost performance.
  4. A 50MP triple camera setup with an impressive image processing unit gives decent results and offers a 10.8MP selfie lens.
  5. Last but not least, the smartphone markers provide 23W wired and 23W wireless charging speeds.

Design and Display

The Google Pixel 7 Pro smartphone is one of the sleekest smartphones of 2022, it comes with a matte finish design layout with a camera module that covers the back panel. It’s pretty much the same as the Vivo iQOO 10 Pro, but the camera stripe goes other ends of the back panel so that the phone doesn’t wobble and sit flat on the surface from behind. Moreover, the company added unique and refreshing shade options too.

This year, the Pixel phones arrive with classic colors such as Obsidian, Snow, and Hazel. Each of them gives a professional vibe the first impression, but that makes the phone looks more premium. The in-hand experience is good with a slim build and the device only weighs around 212 grams. Aside from this, the curved panel design of the 6.7-inches LPTO AMOLED panel renders QHD resolution.

On top of that, you will notice vibrant colors on the display thanks to the AMOLED panel, while a smooth user experience can be attained through a 120Hz refresh rate. Following this, the phone brings IP rating protection on the body and Coring Gorilla Victus protection on the front. With this, the Always-on display feature does work great and the brightness levels are quite good to use the phone outdoors freely.

Memory and Internal

The first-gen Tensor chipset does have a few shortcomings when it comes to a heavy gaming session. But this time, the company has improved the second-gen Google Tensor G2 chipset to some extent so that users can experience exceptional performance without any difficulties. Though the company does advertise the gaming ability of this chipset, in the real-time test, the overall GPU performance is not that bad either.

It can’t be compared to the mammoth Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 performance, yet. But in the future, we might even see powerful processing from Google as well. For now, there’s no doubt that you can play Apex Legend, Call of Duty, and Genshin Impact without much restriction in graphics. On the other hand, the software layering of Android 13 gives tons of customization features.

Furthermore, you will obtain the latest Android update on the Pixel faster than any other phone, while the minimalist interface becomes a bloatware-free Android ecosystem. Alongside this, the smartphone makers are providing 128GB, 256GB, to 256GB UFS 3.1 storage with 8GB to 12GB RAM support. With this combination, the Google Pixel 7 Pro will run smoother and faster than ever before.

Camera

The Google Pixel 7 Pro has an astounding image processing unit that boosts overall photo quality with the help of AI software. The company improves the software to the extent that you can fix blur photos that are taken by other smartphone cameras. Spec-wise, the Pixel 7 Pro is led by a 50MP primary lens that captures decent daylight photos with exceptional details, enhanced contrast, and natural colors with proper exposure.

The noise detection software reduces grains from the lowlights, while the HDR photos give impressive sharpness in each shoot. Furthermore, the portrait mode grants crisp details with improved edge detection and fine blur on the background, while the colors pop up. Aside from this, there’s a 48MP telephoto lens that enhanced zoomed photos quality and provides 5x optical zoom.

With this lens, the colors and contrast look on the same level as the primary lens and render superb results. Lastly, there’s a 12MP ultra-wide to get dynamic range on photos. The best part of the pixel phone is that you don’t have to worry about the quality drop in different modes, as the image processor renders constant results by combining different lens results to create the final photos, which is quite great for the users.

In contrast, we find out that video recording is not as perfect as it appears on paper. The native camera app can record up to 4K resolution videos with various advanced features. But the major drawback appears in the selfie videos as it was not able to comprehend all of the data and give average results.

Anyway, the 10.8MP selfie lens still provides impressive results, and the image processing time is reduced to a few seconds. Overall, the camera experience of the Google Pixel 7 Pro is superb when it comes to capturing your life moment with photos. It’s the best option for the android phone, while the same thing doesn’t apply to video recording as it has some downsides compared to the competition.

Battery and Others

The battery section of the Google Pixel 7 Pro smartphone renders a Li-Ion 5000 mAh battery configuration, which is sufficient for more than seven hours of usage. Usually, you can use this phone for a day with a single charge in normal conditions. But if you play games for a couple of hours, the phone battery will go below 30%. In that case, you can utilize either the wireless or wired charge.

Both of them are not included inside the box, you have to purchase a 23W wired and a 23W wireless fast charger according to your requirements. As for the sound output, the stereo speaker configuration brings loud and clear results while listening to music. Though, it doesn’t have a 3.5 mm jack port, anyway, the Google Pixel 7 Pro cost roughly $750 (Rs. 61,999 in India) approx, which makes this phone a premium flagship smartphone.
