Many phones can take average pics and clips, and what it matter the most is your skill (both for taking shots and editing).
So don't be carried away by youtubers hypes.

The "heat issues" and "heat while using data" are on par with the experience when using Exynos cpu.
But until Google learns its lesson, they will stick with it, it seems.

It is definitely one of the smartphones of all time. Certainly meets expectations for the most part, beautiful display, can run games decently and take great photos. However, given how much credit the pixel 7 gets for its camera, I certainly expected much more from its video-taking capabilities. I am very unimpressed by their 8x "super res zoom", videos always turn out soft and blurry. It's so bad that my 4-year old oppo reno takes better zoomed videos, and goes up to 10x. I guess I am a fool for not getting the 7 pro instead, or any other phone for that matter.

This is a great phone with great specs, good cameras and display also feels so good and is very responsive.
The only issue with overheating even when doing noting (just keep it connected to internet), I don't have any games installed only socials and browser but most of the time temperature reach 38-40 degrees Celsius just by browsing thru the apps like: Facebook, Insta, Twitter or browser.
For this reason also the battery depleates very fast, so a few times / day I have to swich it off 5-10 mins to cool down. Battery never last 1 complete day (because of overheating).
This could be a perfect phone but is just so unreliable because of poor thermal management ( i have it already since 5 months and with each software update I thought will improve but unfortunatelly nothing good happend regarding thermals and battery life).
Also I keep it only at 4G and WiFi because if I switch to 5G it overheats even worse...
If Android 14 will not solve this issues, I will make sure this is first and last Google flagship I own (sadly).

Adadan, 24 Jul 2023What to buy, Google Pixel 6 pro or 7 ? Im interested in photos.I'm stuck with this too, but I think pixel 7 is better considering Tensor G2. Pixel 6 pro is not stable like Pixel 7

Excited with pixel 8. Small screen is what i prefer. Hope battery optimization is better than its predecessor.

Almost two month with this phone. My options about Pixel 7 (UK version):
+ Photo quality superb.
+ Video quality good (iPhone still unbeatable though).
+ Love the flat display and the quality is good (still readable under sunlight).
+ Speakers is good but nothing special.
+ Battery is average (avg. SoT 5h - 5h.30mins-ish).
+ Fluid OS as expected from Pixel phones.
+ Love the design and metal camera housing mich better than glass one.
- Heat management is poor. Can get warm easily if you record video (especially 5mins+).
- Using cellular data also leads to warm back cover (although I don't have poor signal reception).
- Average charging speed if you compared this phone with others like BBK phones.
The main concern about this phone for me is heat management since I live in Indonesia. But as long as you have WiFi I think I can tolerate it. Let's see if Google will switch to TSMC instead still with Exynos.

I am planning to keep this minimum 4 years.

Anonymous, 14 Jul 2023Get the S23 ultra if you're concerned about the batter... moreI'd like to add, I own both the Pixel 7 and Samsung S23+. I use GCam mod on the S23+ and it's about as good as the one on my Pixel 7, sometimes better, and sometimes worse. I'd say, it is even having extensively compared both the native GCam on the Pixel 7 with the GCam mod (LMC 8.4) used on my S23+. So if you have doubts, go with Samsung S23 series phones. (By the way, the S23+ has a document lens defect called 'banana blur' that is visible when photographic close up photos of documents. It's a non-issue for me with easy workarounds but if it's an issue for you, go with the S23 ultra which doesn't have any lens issues.)

If you want the best photos however, you'll either have to get a Pixel 7/7 Pro and accept its deficiencies (no 5G support worldwide), inferior exynos based tensor chipset, and fewer android software updates than Samsung's S23 flagships. A workaround for the camera is to sideload GCam mod for the S23 (would recommend LMC 8.4 mod with config files for the S23/S23+/S23 Ultra). They are nearly identical in color and exposure with the native GCam on the Pixel 7/7 Pro and oftentimes better (less aggressive sharpening), but may be buggy at times.

How do you know? I have been using 6a for the past 5 months. Battery is good and even longer than usual. I don't feel the heat at all unless I play heavy games like genshin impact or pubg.

My main phone is the S23+ because it has real dual SIM slots (not nano SIM + eSIM garbage), has 5G SA/5GNSA support worldwide (Pixel doesn't have 5G in unsupported countries), has great camera (S23+) thought not as good as in the Pixel 7), has bigger flat screen, bigger battery, and overall superior software customization options and superior software experience. I retain the Pixel as backup phone mainly for its camera performance and nothing else.
