Anonymous, 07 Jan 2023Don't understand how camera and UI are bad when its pr... more"stock android" isn't the benefit or bragging rights you think it is. This isn't 2011-2013 anymore where stock android was something internet nerds were obsessed about. Nowadays stock android is a pretty terrible, barebones experience. Companies like Samsung spent millions, even billions on improving Android experience. It's gotten to the point that pretty much every "new" feature of "stock android" is just a copy/paste from something Samsung (and others) did years ago. I'm pretty sure Google will exit phone hardware market very soon. They were never serious about it. You can even officially buy Pixel except like 8 or 10 countries. Seems like this phone is only so Youtubers make occasional video so that world knows Google still makes phones "on paper".

Red Eye, 15 Jan 2023Not so much an opinion, but a few questions about the Pixel... moreThe Pixel 7 will not have 5G or VoLTE if used in a country where it was not officially released or if you happen to travel to a country where Pixel phones were never officially released.
You'll have to make do with 3G or 2G for calls (which isn't as good as VoLTE or VoWifi). 4G mobile data works, but no 5G or VoLTE/HD calls for as long as you are in an unsupported country.
If you are OK with no 5G and no VoLTE (I'm assuming you live in an unsupported country), then the Pixel 7 is the BEST phone on your list given your priority features (best camera, battery, software smoothness and timely and long update support). Don't worry about battery life. The battery life is great. It lasts a more than a day under moderate to heavy use with 4G/3G mobile data or Wifi. I have no experience though how it performs if you are connected exclusively to a 5G network because Pixels are unsupported in my country.

Even if tensor g2 is not as powerful as the 8 gen 1, it does have the best image processing, that's why their camera performance is top notch. Also, software stability is one of their best points

Not so much an opinion, but a few questions about the Pixel 7
Im in the market for a new phone. I'm still using a Poco F1 which I got in 2018. I've recently gone on holiday and was using my phone a lot more (Google maps, spotify, camera, the odd game to pass waiting times etc.) and the aging battery of the F1 was letting me down. I ended up switching to an Ulefone armor 8 which I got a while back just to use as an mp3 player. But the armor 8 has a really bad camera, so I kept asking my friends to take pictures for me.
It made me realise it's time for a new phone. I could change the battery of the F1, but a bad experiance with an older phone makes me reluctant to do so. The battery they replaced it with was either smaller or not original and battery life showed no significant improvement.
So what are you guys thought on the following phones as a replacement?
1. Pixel 7 (not pro)
2. Realme gt2 pro
3. Xiaomi 12
4. Xiaomi 12t pro
5. Poco f4 gt
6. Poco F4 or even the X4 gt
I care about battery life, support (because I try to keep my phones a while), Camera (having to put up with the Armor 8 made me realise how important it is), and of course OS performance.
I don't really care about demanding games, screen quality as long as it's bright and big enough to see but small enough to fit in man pockets.
I will appreciate any thoughts especially if someone has used/experienced two or more from the models above. I apologise for the long post.

TooLate, 04 Jan 2023Right on. Pathetic battery life, miserable UI, mediocre cam... moreActually the Pixel 7 camera is NOT mediocre (at least the main rear shooter [wideangle]). It actually outperforms the iPhone 14 Pro Max and outperforms even my APS-C dSLR paired with an F/1.4 lens for handheld extreme low light photography. The Pixel 7 beats my dSLR in detail, dynamic range, and amount of camera shake/blur in such extreme low light situations.
Pixel phones are one (or two) trick ponies - the best main camera in any phone bar none, with the best built in photoeditor (Google photos - with Pixel exclusive features/tools), bar none, and the best in security updates (every 4th of every month) and the fastest Android software updates, bar none.
For everything else (Android software features, battery, hardware features, network connectivity, etc.), Samsung flagship phones running on OneUI 5.0 and equipped with Snapdragon processors are way, way, ahead of Pixel phones or any Android phone brand for that matter.

Ogi, 07 Jan 2023Hi! How is the call quality ang the signal reception? Thank you!If you are happy with 2G and 3G only, then there's no problem with 2G/3G calls and 2G/3G/4G signal at all. However, Pixel phones don't support VoLTE and 5G roaming and both VoLTE and 5G are intentionally disabled by Google when the phone is 7sed in a country that it was never officially released. So if you live or travel to a country where Pixel phones were never officially released, there's absolutely no 5G and no VoLTE support.

Long-time Pixel owner, up the 5 that is - the 6/6 Pro had issues I wasn't willing to put up with (but the style isn't my cup of tea, to each their own), the 7 sounded like a charm with its promises of fixed hardware/software, but I guess a lot of money is spent on praising a flawed device still plagued with issues - the latest of which, camera lenses popping out/cracking for no reason, is quite worrying.
I don't know what's going on in Google's Pixel department, but it sure doesn't do much to reassure would-be buyers. Devices going in this price range are not top contenders in terms of features or speed, but they should at least be issue-free and reliable. Right now there are many $200-300 devices far more sturdy and reliable than Pixels, this is saying something.
