DMX, 26 Oct 202260 minutes with 27w? hahahaha the samsungs take almost 2 ho... moreMy past S21 and my current S21 FE both charge around 65 minutes with 25W Samsung charger. The same with third party 30W charger (for example from Baseus).
And if you look on YouTube other S21 or S22 models charge the same (for example S21+, S21 Ultra, S22 Ultra, etc.).
So, either you are lying or you never had a Samsung S21 or S22 model.
Again, I am talking about S series from Samsung. The mid-range models (A or M) charge in 80-90 minutes. I had the A53 and it charged in about 80 minutes with the 25W charger.

Honestly, guys, all your bitching about the cons makes no sense.
For $900, in this economy, this is a steal!
Very good screen, solid battery life (it WILL improve with updates, as it did with Pixel 6 Pro), buttery-smooth OS, top of the line cameras, solid video, solid build quality. What the hell do you want for $900 in end 2022? Don't give me the usual micro SD, 3.5 mm jack, FM radio troll post, this is ancient history, they will never return.
The only real dealbreaker coming out of this phone is slow charging. If only it charged as quickly as s22 ultra, the (slightly above) average battery life would be easier to stomach. I see no reason why Google can't adapt the 60-80w charging standard, let the customer decide the speed at which it points to charge it (as a "smart" smartphone should). And maybe jump to the ltpo 2.0 standard. I think that even in 2023 it wouldn't go past the $1000 barrier with these small, but significant updates.

Battery life is truly poor. And even switching to FullHD and 60 Hz does not help. That's a tragedy.
Camera... unimpressive. Not bad, but also nothing stellar. Soft, low optical quality (see test scene, how smudged are edges of the frame, terrible).

Constant 20W would take less time, instead of starting 30W then 10W after 50% for example.

Go see the battery ranking. Check the screen resolution of phones at top.

I was hoping the battery endurance would be a lot better this time round (when compared to the pixel 6 pro) and other flagship devices, unfortunately it's not.... however, in real world usage I have found the battery life on the most part to very solid if not spectacular. Most days I'll take my phone off charge around 7am and will have 20-30% battery left come bedtime (11pm) and that is with using the phone quite a lot through the day. On average SOT time is around 6-7 hrs) Maybe if I were to play a lot more demanding games this might have a much bigger knock-on effect. One thing I have noticed is the modem is a lot better, that was one hell of a power hog on the Pixel 6, especially when connecting to 5g networks. You could see the battery decreasing infront of your eyes.
I've had the phone around a week now and I'm more than pleased! Superb screen, camera and software experience. And ALOT less bugs than the initial launch of the Pixel 6!

Average battery life with poor charging time, worse combination.
At least the Pro Max iPhones have very good battery life, even though the charging time is pretty much the same like the Pixels.
I don't know what are Apple and Google excuses. Samsung S22 line-up (the same like S21 line-up for that matter), charges in 60 minutes. And the batteries are still protected for longer time. No need for super slow charging speeds. I mean almost 2h for a full charge in 2022, no way.
And I am comparing with 25W/45W charging from Samsung. The comparison with 65W chargers, will be even more tragical for the Pixels.

I have a few small things I could go list as pros/cons compared to S22 Ultra and everything else but there are no deal breakers at this point with the 7 Pro, I also had a 6 Pro. Looking at all the synthetic benchmarks they don't tell the whole story. I've had the 7 Pro for a week now and it just works, very well. Everything smooth, reception is great, battery life has been great for me as well. I am getting near the same battery life/performance as I did with the S22 Ultra. I don't game, don't to a ton of videos. It's mainly calling, texting, web browsing, and listening to music/podcasts. I've easily been able to get a day and a half the past few days. What a lot of review don't talk about is the ergonomics in terms of how much easier/more comfortable this device is to hold vs S22 Ultra. The ultra has hard corners where 7 Pro and iPhones have softer rounded corners which make it more pleasant to hold. Small stuff like that adds up. Unless you have a legit need for the S-Pen 7 Pro is the best android device out there. After all the things that went wrong with the 6 Pro when it launched and the crap cellular reception issues that couldn't be fixed with software updates, the 7 Pro comes out of the gate strong.

Tensor g2 is a bad chip,just admit it. it is far inferior to snapdragon and even exynos chipset. frequent overheating and low fps during gaming. of course like you said, benchmark dont mean a thing. But there are countless real world test on the tensor g2 performance and so far it is disappointing.

plenty of reviews say the battery life is bad under test, but I see very few complaints from real world users. in fact most say the battery life is surprisingly good, given the reviews. i've had the 7 Pro for a week and I'd say battery is definitely adequate at least.

[deleted post]It's weird how it doesn't destroy low thread count benchmarks tho. Unless benchmarks don't utilize X cores, then that's weird from benchmark side.
