The Google Pixel 7/Pixel 7 Pro are almost identical - the main differences being screen size, 8/12GB RAM and 48MP Telephoto in the Pro.

Pixel 7 Pro has the best camera in 2022. Pixel 7 is not too far behind, Reasonable all-day battery life, Pixel 7 Pro has the brightest screen, but both are excellent, Smooth operation – plenty of power, Excellent Android update policy

No external mountable SSD/Flash storage, No charger and 30W charging is so yesterday (compared to 80-125W), Fixed screen refresh instead of adaptive means a battery life hit at higher rate/res, No external alt DP display port audio/video over USB-C/HDMI

The Pixel 7 Pro is the perfect pairing of Google software and hardware, but there's no major improvements over last year's model.

An ace Android phone that rivals the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra for phone of the year in my view, but for a cut of the price. There are some shortcomings in materials and camera feature implementations, but nothing that can't be forgiven.

Distinctive design stands apart from the competition, Very fairly priced in context to other flagships, Super camera results and easy-to-use interface, Great software and battery life

Aluminium finish scuffs far too easily, Macro Focus should be more adept (and OIS would help), Charging not the fastest, especially compared to the competition

The Google Pixel 7 Pro is a strong value proposition compared to other big smartphones available in 2023. It has a great camera, a smooth screen and a suite of software features that’ll make switching hard.

Charging could, and should, be faster, Very glossy finish and some odd design elements, Not a huge upgrade on the Pixel 6 Pro, You’re after a smaller phone: The Pixel 7 Pro is big – even more so than the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
