Anonymous, 25 Oct 2022Did Google address VoLTE and 5G connectivity issues in non-... moreThailand as well. For now, the only way to get 5g working is to root the device 😢

I heard that the battery life has been significantly improved after the update, can anyone confirm it?

Too bad, Google tries to be 2nd Apple to do their own chip, but the chip is not capable in terms of performance and battery life comparing to Qualcomm chip. Most of performance test showed 20-30% slower than the latest Qualcomm chip. It will be hard to sell these phones at the original list price. 20% slower performance probably will have to sell it at 30-40% lower price than the ones from competitors because people are willing to pay extra premium for the last additional 5-10% performance.

I'm probably among many of those checking this review just for the battery life. It's a Google phone ao I wasn't expecting it to be great. But it's worst than what I expected.
Let's see the battery tests results of Pixel 7 but I think I will end up buying a Zenfone 9.
I love Pixel 7 camera, I'm a fan. But a Pixel phone has way too many compromises. On my book, Google did merits to be crowned the worst smartphone manufacturer.

It's a pity that even with 3rd party apps, you can't save raw files with manual settings (apart from the 2.4 micrometer main camera mode).

Anonymous, 26 Oct 2022I guess that these camera samples were taken with Google... moreAccording to Google, they use machine learning in the short Night Sight mode. I have noticed that the short Night Sight mode can sometimes misalign frames, then the results will be worse than in the long Night Sight mode and also worse than in the normal mode. This happened often when I took photos of text with the short Night Sight mode.

I think I'd be happier with the 6a, with its smaller dimensions, superior battery life and much lower price. That said, my 4a 5G is still going strong.

I guess that these camera samples were taken with Google's short Night Sight mode? The 7 Pro has two Night Sight modes, a short one and a long one. If I am not wrong, the short one is the new default Night Sight mode.

Best phone out there, but battery life is a deal breaker for me, so no thanks unless battery life gets improved via update later.

Pretty nice, especially night shots, but battery endurance is pretty weak for 5000mAh.

A shame a phone that is not as expensive as others but it is not in the cheap range either and you have to wait 1 hour almost 2 for it to charge! just for following the steps of apple and copying things from samsung, for that and more I ruled out the purchase of this phone that and that I had the pixel 6 pro which is the same as this one with some quirks here and there

"At the 2x zoom level, the Pixel 7 Pro's main camera leverages the camera shake you inevitably introduce when handholding the phone"
That's not true in good light conditions. Google uses the 1.2 micrometer pixel mode of the sensor for 2x zoom in good light conditions. That's why you also get a 12.5 megapixel raw file in good light conditions at 2x.
Sadly, they don't do this in low light conditions, even when you use Night Sight. Then you will get only 3 megapixel raw files because they use the 2.4 micrometer mode.

Did Google address VoLTE and 5G connectivity issues in non-officially supported countries (eg. Bulgaria)?
