Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!
Honestly, the pixel 7 is a good deal but I'm satisfied with the pixel 6 🙃.
Hello @sam Beckman , I watch your videos but to be really honest, your phone reviews I don’t enjoy so much you update very late because already watch to many really good reviews about this product so don’t feel like want to watch , try to do something different if possible, just saying as viewers.
@@aeroer4942 I appreciate the fact that he waited long enough to get a proper impression of the phone. Makes for a more honest and more thorough review.
That intro bro.... That intro was amazing 😇👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿 solid.
The Pixel 7 Pro is my first Pixel, and I really love it too! It's the smoothest Android experience I had since my OnePlus 7 Pro, and the camera is fantastic! The only improvement point I can think of is battery life.
Yes the phone is soo great and high tiered type... I'm just pissed off with the front (selfie) camera.. It's so mediocre, below average... How's it with you? And why did you switch from your OnePlus 7 Pro? Any great difference?
This one comment made me very confident in my purchase. I just lost my OnePlus 7 Pro to a creek and waited for this phone to drop. I loved that phone dearly so I'm glad to hear this is a good spiritual successor
Battery will be better overtime as soon as AI learns your usage patterns.🌟
@@AnnoyingSonic789 I switched from the OnePlus 7 pro too... And I'm not impressed. Speakers are worse, hand feel is worse, I'm having scrolling issues, and it charges slow. Plus I just miss oxygen OS 11 and the widget shelf
@@oOTheMastaOo240 scrolling issues?
A week ago I bought a Pixel 6a as my first pixel.
This finally made my start to fully appreciate how good Pixels are.
Can't wait to see your deep review of the Pixel 7 Pro
What was your experience with call quality, signal strength, dropped connections in comparison to other phones?
The same broo
@@aaakmm1785 when compared to the POCO F1 I had for around 3.5 years, the call quality is better, although it isn't a reason to buy the phone, unless you have really terrible call quality on your current phone, and the signal strength was pretty good, I'd say about the same, besides it takes about 10 seconds to switch from cellular internet to wifi (if you just always leave both of them on like I do), which isn't a huge deal, but can be annoying sometimes.
@@aaakmm1785 other considerations can be the great software (I haven't encountered any bugs so far in 2 weeks), the amazing AI, voice assistant, camera and performance when it comes to positives, and the negatives are the display which is sub par for the price point, some heating issues with sustained high performance (wasn't a big issue for me yet, but I didn't really push the phone, all I did was some light gaming, short camera sessions, and some CZcams).
Battery life is good enough for me, I usually end my days with around 30%, after about 6-7 hours of light usage screen on time, and 16 hours of total usage (I have the always on display turned on, and I rarely have battery saver on).
I also bought my 6a last week. Super happy with it.
I love how much more subtle your review are than bigger tech reviewers, it is refreshing.
so close to 400k
congratulations in advanced!!!
Hi Sam, thanks for the review, and it does a good job of highlighting the hardware (screen, camera, battery life) of the phone, but like most other Pixel 7 reviewer out there, you leave off a lot of the software and service integration that really defines the 'Pixel' experience. Features like Direct My Call, Call Screening, Live Transcription, Now Playing, Personal Safety, Google Assistant, Google, Lens, Google Translate, Night Shot (which is as much software as it is hardware on Pixel Phones) really make the Pixel 7 series feel very seamless and full-featured to use.
Now many of these features are also available on competing Android phones, but they are not as well integrated, and without the TPUs on the Tensor 2 SoC, ay not be as fast or as accurate, so it would have been really interesting to see what Google does better than its competitors and which features are exclusive to the Pixel (off the top of my head, Now Playing, Photo Unblur, Direct My Call, Call Screening). It's also worth noting some of the limitations of Google's implementations, your installing Nova is pretty telling that the Pixel Launcher has fairly limited customization (which is something I personally don't mind, as I rarely customize my phone much beyond OEM presets), but this is something many users might want to know about (especially the new Gestures, which is very polarizing, it seems).
Phones aren't just hardware these days, the software and combined user experience define how fully featured they are, and I think phone reviews should address the strengths and differences between phones in this area as well, especially since reviewers have access to many different phones and are able to compare many more vendors than typical end users will.
WHY is your cinematography so good!! The footages are so satisfying, and looks like a lot of work went into editing and music. Damn good review vid.
I still love my 6 Pro, the two tone look of the device was so good. The haptic engine they used is top notch, everything with the device just feels crisp. It's my all time favorite phone to send text messages on. Fortunately in my area I never find the modem lacking compared with other devices I've used.
the 7 pro upgrade is worth it. The battery is so much better dude.
Never really had battery issues with my 6 Pro, I still love the color choices they had last year over the new ones. I'll be keeping my OG 6 Pro for awhile.
The modem is mostly very inefficient, objectively worse battery life on data, it's poor
I don't know the phone gets me through the end of the day comfortably. The rest of the experience is excellent in my area. I get really solid signal for the most part.
@@oneminutewonder77 until you travel.
your reviews are really cinematic, very nice. also, the technical details are very good! liked and subscribed :)
Quality of your videos keep exceding expectations. Always upping the bar 👏
Keep going
I just upgraded from a Pixel 3XL to the 7 Pro. My daughter tried to talk me out of the pro, saying I don't need the extra features, but man, the dictation is phenomenal (I'm a language teacher) and the photos, still exploring, but wow. Next up is video. Thanks for your review.
I recently bought a Pixel 6a. Switching from a budget Samsung.
I've used Nova Launcher for years, but this time saved all of my settings, which, I'm pleased to say were transferred seamlessly over to the 6a. That included the setting which removes the pointless (IMO, as I have Chrome) Google Search Bar.
You deserve many, many times more subscribers. Absolutely quality reviews and you come across as very personable! Well done mate!
great as always Sam, thank you!
One truth to be told, I take screenshots of most of the top down shots from your videos. I find it so beautiful that it worths keeping those as pictures. 😍
Just tried out the sending apps into the Recents carousel at circa 9:50, and on my handset there is no issue with the fade for me on the latest software.
very good cinematic review Sam, truly an awesome creation. You deserved the LIKE👍
The production quality is 🔥
Were those photos your's or stock? The composition and clarity on the ones with the kids were perfect.
That's one of the neatest intros i've seen in a while!
I'm feeling a lot better about using my Jump on Demand upgrade for this phone...I know what to expect and it will fit in with my daily usage needs!
Mate, are these tech review videos or straight up movie scenes? They are so well done. Keep it up.
I’ve been waiting for the Sam Beckman review since launch! The de facto Pixel review!
Great job on this video!
Just got one and loving it
Just picked one up. Thanks for the in depth review
How is the selfie camera... Mine isn't good at all. I'm thinking of switching to OnePlus 10 Pro
The issue is that I am addicted to taking selfies
Hey ! Do you have the bug with recent apps when you have the Pixel Launcher as default app ? I don't have the bug you're describing on my Pixel 7 Pro and my Pixel 5
your videography is amazing!
I was just thinking the other day of how I have yet to see a video for your review. Didn't disappoint as usual.
good video. though i am using 13 pro max at the moment. and thinking of going to s22 ultra, I liked this phone too.
also, whats about the colored band on top of the video? intentional?
I felt like I was watching a movie. Awesome cinematography and lighting!!
Js love the way sam work on these beautiful videos 👍✨❤️
great review
💯 I want those symmetrical bezels back too. Still got the pixel 5 just because it looks perfect
Great video !
I appreciate how you took the time to actually use the phone and point out things google should fix for a better user experience.
Hopefully Google listens, they have what it takes to take over, I feel they just need more feedback
Looking forward to the regular pixel 7 review! I think that might be the every person phone from what i have seen
Can we take a moment to appreciate how damn slick that intro transition is? The man has only had 15 seconds and already made me sit up straight.
Is it possible to know the name of the music app / skin applied? thanks, and great video!
Intro is just wow 😍
Awesome video! I've purchased the Pixel 7 Pro and I've been waiting for it for your review. Your reviews are very in-depth and very realistic. Thank you. You know how to explain how things work for the device so I appreciate that greatly mate!
How do you see the selfie camera... Mine is soo bad... I don't know what to do
How about gaming experience?
Does it get warm after long & heavy use?
I just hope they give us the option to decide if we want the aggressive image processing or not. That's one of the biggest issues I have so far.
maybe that could be taken care of in an update.
This has always been an option by shooting in RAW!
Nice contributing there peeps
Are those your own wallpapers Sam?
Love this aspect ratio. Looks great on my note 20 ultra. Also shout out to the #crispy footage
I really believe this is the smoothest, bug free Pixel phone ever! This phone makes every other phone feel outdated and gimmicky. Smartest one out there for sure 😊
@@maxmustermann7365 Speak for yourself I've had zero issues and everything works at it should.
Outdated and gimmicky? Nonsense lol
If you don't know how to take advantage of incredible features and customization just say so..
@@roboticvenom1935 You know how to read??
@@maxmustermann7365 480 only? You got it for a darn good deal. Isn't that why you got it in the first place?
Which launcher are you using? I thought there’s no launcher which supports android 13 yet
Love the phone!! But is there a way to get rid of the white notification shade when you scroll down?
That weird double animation 9:57 is also present on my vivio iqoo 9se, i had to suffer with this on a daily basis as i use maps often.
Just picked one up. Upgrading from a Samsung Note 9. Gotta say if this was the "improved brightness" then thank goodness I did not get a pixel 6 pro. The Pixel 7 still looked much darker than my note 9. That being said the transition was much easier than I expected. Loving it so far.
The issue is that the Note 9's screen is absolutely stunning. The only comparable upgrade is a S21 Pro or S22 Pro.
I'm on a Note 9 right now,! Thinking about going for the 7 Pro. How do you feel about the Pixel now?
I NEED the wallpaper at 8:57!!!
Where do I get it from? 🤤🤤🤤
Enjoying my first ever pixel 7 pro. Wish Google adds a manual mode in the camera.
They need to increase the charging speed to at least 65watt. People will comment and say oh that will hurt battery longevity but competitors have done multiple things that reduce the strain on the battery making it a dual cell battery and putting the chips that generate heat during charging in the power brick making the phone stay cooler and charge quicker along with a nice thermal heatsink
Thinking of getting the 7 pro or waiting til the s23. Have a s20fe but ready to get a newer phone. How are the speakers on the 7pro? Don't hear many comments on them.
Great video! Question though: what was that sexy music player at 2:09?
Nyx
@@AbdullahMalik-lf3du perfect, thanks!
At 4:45, I'm assuming you are on the latest update since this video was only uploaded 18 hours ago. I can't reproduce this on my own Pixel 7 Pro with the latest November 5, 2022 update. Smooth as expected. Are you also on this update?
flagship level intro, theme wallpapers....on all your videos
Have you had issues with the network coverage and wifi?
Im getting a pixel pro 7 soon in the next week or so what would be the best way to condition the phones battery to get the most out of it
One just purchased the Pixel 7 Pro. One of the best reviews I've seen, great job mate.
I am glad you also covered the third party launcher gesture navigation in software part, It was one of the reason to install custom rom to my poco x3 and the android 13 is working like a charm and the nova launcher is so smooth
It was a very nice review! Love you channel sam
7:21 wow, is that TapTap to make double tap to lock the phone?
It's finally here!
Wow, those lock and unlock transitions? What are those?
For me I love this phone so much only problem I have is with the camera I have dark skin tone and it makes me even darker when I snap selfies lol forcing me to have to adjust the selfies in post
I love my pixel 7 pro, and I recommend under Developer Options to change the animation to .5. There's still a little animation, but it's so fast and slick. Maybe not everyone's taste, but I really like it.
I have this phone... But my front camera sucks... Is that same with you?...
I'm really thinking of switching it with OnePlus 10 Pro because of camera performance
@@anorigolden No. It seems fine to me.
@@anorigolden the OnePlus 10pro is outclassed in every single way camera wise by the 7pro from actual tests, and is also frequently worse than the 9 pro. I would be surprised if you found any actually notable improvements in terms of selfies but everything else will be a downgrade.
@@QuellTheHeresy ok thanks for your words.. For now am using the back camera for selfies.. Imagine I have to turn the phone the other way any time I wanna take selfies..
Pls in what area are Pixel 7 Pro better than OnePlus 10 Pro, and Oppo Find X5 pro
I got one on Friday and I'm not completely blown away. Mind you it's an upgrade to my Huawei Mate 20 pro which was massively ahead of its time.
When we open the recent apps, why is "clear all" all the way to the far left? May as well swipe each app away if I have to go all the way to the left to clear everything.
2:10 what music player app is that?
Has anyone had any luck finding a good looking case that covers the metal on the camera bar? I'm worried about Google knocking down my future trade in value because of scratches.
Where do you get all of those wallpapers?
The video edits are top notch
Love how the hazel colour is the most popular. Kinda nice not seeing everyone rock pure black units.
Been running Android 13 with the Pixel 6Pro from the start and I have never ran into the app fading when going into the recent app carousel.
I moved from pixel 5 to iPhone 14 pro which I’ve had for about 5 weeks. I’ve had the first 3rd and 5th generation pixels and I’m now in the process of moving back to pixel and getting the 7 pro soon. Why I moved away from pixel is beyond me. Pixel just can’t be beaten I feel.
When Google can get the battery to last as long as 13 pro max it will be so damn near perfect
@@pixelatedsethtube1271 but then again it will become a little expensive. Te battery is fine actually. It can last a day easily but i think it depends on what user does.
@@eg8049, I am ready to pay a bit more for a better battery life.
I know that people really love their Nova setups, but I just wanted to point out that Niagara Launcher has been working near flawlessly with gesture navigations for well over a year now. If you like the layout of the launcher, its a stable and high quality launcher that I've been daily driving for years.
I do not like the layout unfortunately
Agreed on everything , however I'm not sure about the Haptics . The first software release let you adjust the amount of time in milliseconds as to how long it buzzed for with each click . They took that option away now and it's definitely not as strong as it was .
I use navigation gestures and swipe to type and the Haptics are only gently noticed . I'm actually disappointed with the Haptics and think the iphones are much stronger . And no , I'm not and iphone user , nor do I like much else with their phones .
i got mine yesterday. today i noticed my car holder lowered the volume. i'm going to fix that by adding some padding to part of the right side clamp so that the rocker isn't pressed
Hi Sam, how about heating issues under normal conditions. does this warms up more
Yeah it does
Does Pixel haptic behave like on iPhone? I mean response when you press something in the system or pressing like in apps like instagram or tik tok?
what music player you are using in 2:11 ?
Dude that intro was sublime.
literally just got my 512 delivered 5 mins ago transferring info from my iPhone 14 pro max. I never had a pixel but I am excited to see what this can do
You know what ?
I would love to buy again a 2022/2023 phone like the one from your introduction - without punch hole...
Got my OnePlus 7 Pro from the introduction in 2019 in May.
It still works like i charm, but could use some camera improvement.
love the intro
nobody else mentioning the phone mount volume rocker issue. Sigh. I got the ESR HaloLock ring to use MagSafe mounts/accessories, will see if it works soon.
hey , whatsup...whats the music app that you use
It's Nyx music player
Got the 7pro, biggest issues are touch is still iffy having to press buttons especially back button multiple times to register. Only other grievance is, the speakers suck. My 4A sounds quite noticably better
I haven't had that app switcher fade bug you were taking about on my pixel 7 pro, weird.
will you do a base pixel 7 review?
Ive heard it runs pretty hot is that anything that would kill its performance? That and is the short battery life to warrant buying another phone?
What wallpapers are you using in this video?
I really love this phone, its pixel through and through...and when you let me know how to work it speaking with your sexy Aussie accent, I melt ! Thank you Sam🥰😘
The 7 pro is my first pixel and I love it. Used iphones and the galaxy s22 ultra before.
The pixel combines both good things of these brands. Smoothness of apple (close but not quite the same) and the android features of samsung but much snappier than their micro laggy software. Pixel 7 pro is great
So much better then the iPhone 13 pro max! Pixel 7 pro >>
I actually think it's smoother than iPhone
how about battery life between the pixel 7 pro & s22 ultra??
@@MrTejeron their about the same however the 22 ultra charges at 45 watt and pixel only 25 so 22 charges faster alit faster
7:24 , how did you enable double tap to lock?
Why don't reviewers talk about call quality which is the fundamental function of a phone
I've started using "whilst" because of you. Btw Big Fan!
What music app is that?
What's that music app in the beginning
Looks as there using machine learning (a.i.) for more on the Pixel 7 Pro. My speakers, both ear and loud speaker had a very different untuned and tingy sound when I first got it and now they sound both louder and easier on the ears than my old Pixel 6. Also, cameras where nearly the same if not worse on the Pixel 7 compared to the 6 until many photos/videos later it was clearly (excuse the pun) better. Essentially the phone needs use to calibrate/tune it's cameras and speakers, and it's worth it.
Got a 7 from an s21+ and it's fantastic! Definitely recommend the change to anyone in a similar boat. Love the smaller size and camera and UI smoothness and consistency
I am looking to do the same
Just jumped from s21, which camera stopped working 1 year in
Just ordered the 7 pro, coming from a s21+
