   I got my Pixel 7 a few days ago from Amazon and I have to say I’m impressed. I’m upgrading from a OnePlus 6T, so keep that in mind when reading my review. I haven’t had any problems. powering it up the first time and transferring all my data from my old phone worked like a charm (better than on my wife’s Pixel 6A, which had a couple of glitches during the process). Setup took a while, mainly because I have a ton of apps that I needed to sign on to. I’ve got almost everything done now, except for the most annoying apps (Okta verify, I’m looking at you). The only issue I had during setup was turning WiFi calling on–it failed twice, then I realized the bad reception in my basement was to blame. When I did it from my living room, where reception is good, it turned on without a problem.

   In daily use, the phone has worked flawlessly. Face unlock is fast (albeit not as secure as a fingerprint because it only uses the regular camera, unlike on the iPhone). The fingerprint reader has yet to fail to recognize my finger, and it’s faster than the one on my old OnePlus. The phone feels snappier than my old one, particularly when running certain apps that slowed down my old phone (Instacart, for example).

   The screen is a beauty–coming from a 60Hz screen, 90Hz is a noticeable upgrade and feels buttery smooth. It’s bright enough to use easily in direct sunlight.

   The camera is very good, from what I can tell. Definitely way better than my old phone’s. I haven’t taken many night or low-light shots yet, but everything else has come out looking great.

   I know the Pixel 6 was glitchy and, in some cases, got buggier as time went on. Fingers crossed this won’t happen with the 7, but so far so good.

   Overall, I can’t believe the amount of stuff the phone has to offer for the price, particularly with the $100 gift card pre-order offer. It’s a flagship phone for a mid-tier price. I was considering getting an iPhone 13, but opted for the Pixel 7 because of the lower price. I’m glad I made that choice, as that extra $$$ comes in handy these days.

   Edit to add that the battery life is good, but not great. It lasts through a whole day of moderate to heavy use and has about 20% left at the end of the day.

   This phone is and excellent phone. I feel most cell phones are a bit overpriced, however that is what one must pay I guess .. it has excellent battery life and a boat load of features..the camera takes amazing pics ! and so far I have nothing bad to say about the phone except the finger print reader sometimes wont read my finger prints.. passcode back up..lol.. would definitely purchase again if I had to.

   El teléfono esta excelente, sus cámaras, construcción y sistema operativo son lo mas destacable, el sistema operativo es muy fluido y minimalista, se podría decir que es como el iPhone de Android, todo muy minimalista y fluido. La única diferencia destacable en contra del 7pro además del tamaño, es la falta del telefoto y la diferencia de la pantalla, aunque la verdad para el usuario común la diferencia entre el 2K y el FHD+ es casi imperceptible en una pantalla tan pequeña como lo son las de los smartphones, los 90 hercios y los 120 del pro igual no representan una gran diferencia, así que las únicas grandes adiciones en realidad en contraparte del pro son el tamaño y el telefoto, que dependiendo del usuario que seas el telefoto casi no se usa. Así que si buscas un teléfono compacto y fácil de usar a una mano, y no echas en falta el telefoto, es una excelente opción ante su hermano mayor, por casi la mitad del precio

   The media could not be loaded.

   La verdad estaba un poco dudoso por pedirlo, pero vaya que me sorprendió, la cámara es buenísima, claro tiene sus pro y contra, en fotos es una chula, con la cámara de atrás consigues una fotos espectaculares, en la frontal flaquea un poco, pero la calidad sigue siendo grandiosa, en video es muy bueno si hay mucha luz, si empieza a faltar luz tendrá ruido, en experiencia de batería excelente con android 13, en android 14 baja un poco la autonomía pero nada grave, de lo demás funciona exclente, altavoces con buen nivel de sonido, lo único “malo” es el brillo en exterior se nota que le falta un poco, mi otro teléfono (iPhone 11 pro) tiene un brillo mejor en exterior, lo único que si eres de México y planeas usar las redes de Altan ya sea Bait, diri, bromovil, pillofon me parece, etc tienes que buscar un tutorial en YouTube para que te funcionen la llamada, son dos aplicaciones Pixel ims y shizuku, y por último si tienes iPhone tiene pros y contras, por ejemplo android auto noe gusta nada en comparación con carplay pero es cuestión de gustos.

   Adjunto varias fotos, en retrato las fotos son asombrosas.

   Por este precio no existe mejor teléfono, es fluido ya que es android prácticamente puro, excelentes materiales, y una gran cámara.

   I’ve had this Google Pixel 7 phone now for about 8 months, after having used Samsung phones for years. The #1 best thing if you switch from Samsung is the absence of all that bloatware, those apps you never use and can’t uninstall either. This phone saves so much memory by just not having those apps, and it makes it easier to sort through the apps you do have and find the one you need quickly and efficiently. Huge relief, and that’s probably the #1 reason I wouldn’t go back to Samsung. Photography is my hobby and for the first time this year, I did not use my SLR camera at all. I feel bad but the camera on this phone was versatile enough for my purposes! Picture quality is excellent. The magic eraser feature in editing is quite a game changer. The fact that the phone saves photos directly to your Google drive is also nice though sharing pics to social media from there isn’t that straightforward. I do it all the time but I haven’t figured out how to post multiple pics without them appearing in backward order. The biggest negative for the Google Pixel 7 phone is that I need to charge it just about every day. Keep in mind that I don’t use it for gaming or listening to music or watching videos. I literally just use it to text, call, google stuff, occasionally for social media, and maps if I’m driving which isn’t every day. Even so, I have to charge it approximately every 30 hours. This is the one thing they need to change on this phone. I have a 2022 model and it looks like I’ll be getting updates until 2026 which gives them enough time to work on that! The other thing is that fingerprint recognition rarely works. When it does seem to work, I think it’s actually the facial recognition thing that comes on at the same time that’s opening the phone. Facial recognition works great fortunately. Oh, and just for kicks: the feature I like best that the phone comes with is “Now Playing” that identifies what song is currently playing. I put it on my home screen so that I don’t have to switch on my phone to activate it. Just a light touch and it tells me what the mystery song I’m hearing in a cafe or on the radio is. My 20-yr-old nephew who is an iPhone user was actually envious of this feature! It’s not an app — it’s just a feature that appears in Settings>Sound. To summarize: do I like this phone and would I recommend it? A resounding yes. Should battery life be improved? Also a resounding yes.
