Google's Pixel camera system is straight awesome
I don't like your long hair. Looks weird. Please go back to the previous version.

@@vwmusicplaylist1935 nah he looks fine af
@@abubakrakram6208 that is why people are saying iPhone camera produces images similar to china product phones whereas pixel shows the real natural ones. It is always hard to accept the bitter truth. In short, if you look bad on a pixel device, means you're ugly.
@@vwmusicplaylist1935 maybe dave could use magic eraser on his hair. JK lmfao 😂, love your style dave
love how even if its a sponsored video, he is not over selling these features and points out their flaws as well. Never change Dave
Dave2D 🔥
He literally is. He’s selling you a pixel by promoting a feature that is available on any other phone (with google one sub, 2.99$). Im not blaming him for taking the money, but “pointing out the flaws” are part of googles marketing strategy, and it worked on you.
Yup the marketing worked then. Unless he says, “this makes me not want to use it” or proclaims he didn’t have to send this video to Google prior to posting then I won’t take his word.
@@fishstraws626 nope, not gonna buy the Pixel or a Google One sub. Just wanted to comment something nice about one of my favorite creators, but everyone on the internet thinks that everyone else is a moron and try to school them.
@@fishstraws626Well if you have to pay a subscription for this, it is hardly the same as having it up front qhen you buy a pixel. Additionally considering that the pixel lineup is placed more as a upper midrange phone, it stacks up quite well against other flagship phones based on its price per performance.
I hate how smartphone overviews basically turned into camera overviews. There are so many things to talk about smartphones but everyone focuses only on cameras like that's the only feature smartphone needs to be decent
Me too. Hate it. Most of us aren't camera pros. All high end phone cameras are basically excellent. I always skip over the section. I know I'll be happy with the photos.
@@nooneinpart I completely disagree with you. There are many aspects to talk about besides cameras. Starting with UI specific features(like customization and fluidity) and ending with throttling, display calibration, wifi and cellular reception and bandwidth tests. Some benchmark game test. To each of this aspect you can dedicate a separate video but still only the camera gets this treatment.
Every video perfectly short and sweet with no filler or fluff. Dave is low key top tech influencer 👨🏻💻
Picture quality plus AI features are exactly the reasons I bought the Pixel 7 even though it isn't sold directly in my country. Hope they expand the availability to more countries other than what was already declared for thr 8 launch
pixel phones still miss a good hardware/software system for video recording. That's the only thing that keep me on iphone even if I hate the brand.
My dude get a Samsung Galaxy S23 it had the same features lol.
me too...unfortunately I didn't think about the network stability
@@EyeOfTheTiger777i bought mine from US to forwarding company and send it to me to Indonesia, since Pixel is not available here. Trust me Pixel is not the same as Samsung, I'm not saying one is better than the other, i only says they aren't a substitute. Pixel is cleaner UI with superb camera and photo editing software, while Samsung has more flairs and better video output, but I can't stand their UI.
Sadly you have to pay subscription to Google one
I have the 7a and the AI photography stuff are pretty amazing. I normally don't process my photos because I kinda like how things are captured in real life. But you are right in pointing out that sometimes those elements DO take away from the photos. The eraser isn't perfect, but honestly YOU notice the imperfects because you know where to look. To the uninitiated it's very hard to spot. Night sight is redonk as well.
isnt there an overheating issue?
The Magic Eraser works great in the Google Photos app on my iPhone! It does require a Google One subscription, but I’m glad they aren’t locking this feature out as a Pixel exclusive.
Yes exactly. It is not a pixel exclusive feature thankfully. Apple could never with their stupid ecosystem rules. Thanks Google.
That was a really dumb decision by Google
@@divertiti It's honestly not enough of a feature for iPhone users to switch to Pixels so this is still $$ for Google which is all they care for.
Thanks bro I had it without knowing it lol.
@@divertiti dumb decision to make to not keep it pixel exclusive? Pixel sales are a fraction of what rest of the phones go for and keeping it a Google one feature will make a lot more money than trying to get the world to adopt pixels.
It’s really nice to see a sort-of “long term review” from you Dave.
It’s also nice knowing which device you actually use, since that’s a point that doesn’t get covered on this channel too much.
I like how he says,
This video is sponsored by Google and they want me to talk about Photography..
Instead of just mentioning sponsored as a text or mentioning at the end..
It's a cool feature, I'll admit...
I'm still just not sure about how I feel about being able to adjust the reality of our photos so significantly, especially when they're just personal memory photos and not some sort of idealized photo for a magazine or something
bruh how do you call unblurring CHANGING the reality of the photo?! like seriously isnt unblurring actually bringing back the reality to the photo? But yeah I'll admit that the magic eraser can be called a bit of that but what does it even matter. Its YOUR photo and you should be doing whatever you want with it
@@sossboyRyan I'm not sure how you could miss that they didn't mention a feature specifically. So it could be them referring to the ability of removing objects and people. At least that would fit to them writing about adjusting the reality of photos.
Regardless of what feature they were referring to, they said they aren't sure about how they feel with these editing features being a thing. I think you didn't really read their comment thoroughly.
Still, people can criticise and show their feelings. They most likely won't use the feature they are referring to, based on their comment. I don't use Google Photos, but I edit my photos sometimes and also remove objects etc. And yeah, you're right: People now have the option to use this within the Google Photos app. Great!
Hi Dave. Excellent video.
We were having a long chat about your videos the other day, after watching many studio setups (about 50) yours came up as our favourite.
Very curious, how did you come up with the bunker design, side window and lighting? Did you employ a designer, or do the designs yourself?
Have a great week ahead.
your background looks so good. it was boring before but now it looks so clean
When Google sponsors you to talk about one of their best retail products right now, you know you made it ❤
I remember a great erasure tool as part of the stock photo editor in the first Note 1. Great use as I could remove personal information from medical images for my blog. However Samsung killed it with a software update! I remember then getting a 3rd party app from the play store. But nothing beats something built into the stock app.
Wait im confused, your saying its baked into the phone, but also saying in the google phots app?
So is this a feature thats exclusive to the phone or can other android devices use this feature with a google photos update or something ?
Shout out to you Dave! These videos are informative and efficient. Curious to know if there features work on older pixels? Trying to pick up one at a step discount.
That magic eraser feature is so dope. Really glad Samsung implemented that on their phones
Just need an unblur feature too on samsung 🤝🤝
Samsung has had magic eraser for a good while now, and it removes reflections as well
@@SpicyNoodleDragonwhat Samsung phone does that
Got that feature on my s23
@@vaniluu4784 Galaxy Enhance-X app does exactly that.
Samsung had "object eraser" in their stock photo editor before Google rolled this out, but they didn't lean on it as heavily in marketing.
Can confirm, it works. Not as good results as Photoshop tho
How come when you tap on edit there is no loading wheel? This is so annoying on My Pixel that whenever I tap edit it takes 3 4 seconds to even load the edit platform
now we all deserve to see the setup tour 2023 , damn those lights just make a vibe!!
Although this is a sponsored video, it feels like Dave is truly sharing from the bottom of his heart. Such an awesome CZcamsr he is!
Even if the video is sponsored, everything Dave says remains genuine. He pointed out the good and bad bits of the device and its features like a reviewer should, and if it wasn't pointed out that it was sponsored, I wouldn't have noticed if Google sponsored this vid at all, well done Dave :D
I believe him. I had a close friend tell me about how damn good the Pixel was for photos and videos. I’m thinking of replacing my GoPro with it.
@@Typhon888 Pixels are amazing for photos but not for videos, I've used every single Pixels and I can confidently say that ;)
+ has amazing video stabilization tho :D
@@Typhon888As a Pixel 7 user who takes a lot of "big sky" images, I find myself changing to 0.7 "zoom" to give otherwise bland shots a "GoPro" look! Fun phone, for sure! 😎✌️
Is the magic eraser functionality limited to the 7, or is it possible on the 6 and 7a?
I have always loved the pixel phones and I must say this feature really made me love them even more on my trip to Niagara Falls. A lot of people all in the same areas for photos were removed thanks to the magic eraser.
The Magic Eraser is practically in any new Samsung phone, even the mid-tier ones (I have an A73, for instance). You can access it from the Gallery. And based on my comparisons with friends who have Pixel phones, the outcome is almost identical. The unblur feature though, that's nice. I wish Sammy would implement something similar 👍👍
Sammy is the backbencher who cheats u name a feature be it apple or goògle Sammy will have it next time this time as apple is showboating about lockscreen theynwill copy that first and this ublur will c9me as 6.1 update
Sammy? Bro really???
Sammy?
Sammy means samsung
@@sugat13 yes bro, really. You know the company which produces the S23 Ultra? The best android phone out there, yes that company.
I have a Pixel 7 , and S23U, and I find myself using the Pixel 7 more. One hand usability is way better and the camera is quicker and takes better night shots for text in the dark. Also the tools for it are just awesome. Use it all the time when I'm working as I work nights. Pixel 7 isn't good for gaming so don't even go there but that's why I have 2 devices. Both have strengths and weaknesses.
how bout camera quality in point and shoot? still better Pixel 7 than S23Ultra?
Very fair comment.
@@Alinoviajuni2018 daytime pics the s23u is superior. Night time I use the pixel 7. Overall seems to take better night shots.
Where did you get the wallpaper you are using
That theme is clean Dave, need how you set it up and the wallpaper.
I'd love the Pixel 7 camera if it didn't darken everything to an unnatural level after processing.
I love Pixel phones and I'm amazed by the camera tech. I still can't help but be alarmed by the offhand phrase "better memories" being used to describe how we edit our personal photos.
What's the monitor/speaker behind you are using?
why does dave always have the coolest home screen set up ever?
i bought a pixel 6 just before my sisters wedding and the amount of great photos I was able to get using these was astonishing. i filled up the entire wedding in my phone and believe it or not the entire family unanimously loves my photos above the professional guy we hired bcz of how much random things i could just zip out in couple of seconds and get a sorta usable photo
If you have some kind of contact with Google, maybe you can suggest a better implementation of the Eraser tool that would ACTUALLY be good. Instead of filling space from removed objects with AI, they should check similar photos first. When you make a bunch of photos, you usually already have real information about what's behind a person. That should actually be quite simple and look waaay better than it does now.
It could even be a mode in the camera app where you make photos until all the people disappear, piece by piece, and then you bring back only who you want in the frame, or something like that.
I think calling what you're describing "simple" is a bit of a misnomer.. Training AI models requires a significant amount of data input. Using a couple of photos on your phone to train a unique model for a single environment just doesn't seem viable.
@@lahma69 You don't need new models for recognition, they already exist. Gluing frames together is simple and already exists too, for example when you make a panorama photo with multiple shots. So pasting a piece of photo into another similar photo should actually be simple
@@antonshynkaretskyi4077 Everything you've stated works with the assumption that one has taken multiple photos. What of circumstances where you've only taken a single photo?
You are right Anton. I thought about this. However, while it seems easy conceptually, trust me, it can be incredibly hard to implement. This differs because the system is not trying to use generate new pixels. It's trying to fill the space with it's understanding of the environment which it gets from clues in other pictures from the camera. That will require a different system to track the environment and then generate things based on that. Keep in mind that current AI models are intrinsically undeterministic and that will need to be overcomed. There's also certainly going to a lot of edge cases to cover.
I know it's certainly something that can be implemented in a couple of months (with a lot of effort) but because of the overhead of creating a significantly different system for just this, it'll probably take years for the team to eventually get to it. Who knows, I could be wrong and it ships with the next 1-2 versions. However, it's a significantly different problem and will need some innovation to implement.
💯 % THIS..
Are these features available on the pixel 7a as well?
from where do you get the icon packs and the theme overall?
Dave's video duration getting shorter day by day only time will tell whether it's a good thing or a bad thing
Great observation 👍
Quick advertisement to get that video quota, keep favorable algorithm, and get ad money on the side (notwithstanding the amount paid upfront)
It's another kind of flex when your video is sponsored by Google on a Google product (CZcams). This is probably the first CZcams video I've seen with a "This video is sponsored by Google intro". You've earned it Dave2D. You're my inspiration.
The photos are over processed , is there any way to tone it down?
does the magic erarer work better on pixels or it's the same with any phone?
I want that wallpaper 😍
Waiting for the Pixel 8
You are not alone 👍
Waiting for the pixel 9
Waiting for the Pixel 80
Pixel ♾️
I really hope they put a 120Hz ltpo panel in the 8 and not just the 8 pro
@Dave2D I am trying to decide between the 7a ($444) vs the 7 which is currently only $5 more. Most reviews picked the 7a 2-3 months ago when the 7 was $100 more. Which would you recommend for the current situation? The 7, right?
Hey Dave, are there any gaming laptop updates, or does Asus still seem to take the cake with the G18 / M16?
There's something so refreshing about owning a product that even Dave raves about.
Haven't even seen the review yet, but the notification was enough to make me smile. Thank you, Dave ❤
Word ❤
Yeah I have the pixel 7 and it made me smile
Something that isn't mentioned is that you don't have to have people send you their photos because any phone, Android or iPhone can use this tool. Admittedly of course you need to be Google one subscription for storage but even at the lowest tier for just 100 gigs of storage at $1.99 all of these editing tools coming to any Google photos user. Great features but no longer just pixel exclusive. I use these features all the time and my iPhone 13 mini and Galaxy S22 ultra. Just wish there was a bit more transparency with this video, Great video though!
Use the default galley eraser in galaxy and tell which is better
What app do you use for iPhone?
And in that case everyone would be complaining about how that's a paid feature, he's being paid by Google to make people buy Google One blah blah.
He is talking about a Pixel device, where these options are free to use. 🤷🏻♂️
???
Unblur is still exclusive to Pixels
How is the overheating issue? Has it been resolved?
Does the Google photos app do this on non pixel phones?
Watching on my Pixel 7.
Same. Debating whether I want to upgrade to the 8 pro or wait for the 9. I love my 7 but as a power user my battery has definitely degraded.
Rocking the pixel 6a and using these features all the time. I get the best reactions on my Instagram. Anyways, Dave love your setup and the lighting. Just a little thing that i could hear the room eco through my earplugs and just a tad bit irritating. I don't know if everyone could notice it. But i guess a little bit of sound treatment would be good. But who am I to complain. Love your videos. Precise and clean.
I have pixel 6a too. Do you have that unblur feature?
@@vishallodhari6871 no it is only in 7 series. Or i guess i never tried editing a blurred picture. But as of now i haven't seen that feature.
I'm really interested in upgrading to a Pixel 6a (from a 2017 Moto G5 Plus lol), but I've seen reports of shitty battery life.
How are things now with Android 13 and so many updates 1yr later?
@@vik1ng313 Slow charging is a thing. Battery life is decent, should last you a day unless you are gaming.
@@vik1ng313 it's a good upgrade for you as you'll still have the stock android experience. Battery life is good for me, it lasts a day. Sometimes I charge at night. I'm currently on Android 14 beta and the battery has slightly improved. In UK I have not experienced battery heating but it can be a case in India with battery drain cos of it. If you are more concerned about the battery then you can think of nothing phone 1.
Love the wallpaper, have a link or source?
If it is in the Google Photos app, is it aavaaialble for other brand of Android too and iOS? How about PC and Mac, why AI stuffs didnt happen over there much or did I missed something, I do know it happen on Apple Silicon or even Intel Mac
Some constructive criticism :
Dave has really let his foot off the gas. Used to be we'd get amazing reviews of both obscure laptops and phones as well as flagships much more frequently.
Nowadays it's a haphazard video every week and the content is just not interesting and feels like a filler in between times of not posting.
Personally I can't believe he didn't get his hands on the amazing foldables coming out of China, never mind the pixel fold which he talked about briefly but never reviewed.
I hope this trend reverses cuz I don't see myself or others stay subbed to the Chan at this rate
Two weeks no video. Dave proved my point for me
It's wild how Google can't make a phone that captures a sizeable portion of the market with all of the resources at their disposal
It’s because there phones are pure garbage. Can’t even last a day and pretty terrible oversharpened overprocessed “images”
So is this the same as the built in eraser on the Samsung gallery app? This feature has been on Samsung for like 2 years now.
Where did you find that wallpaper?
I had this phone . Number of bugs drove me nuts and I switched to S23 Ultra. From then on it’s been a walk in the park. The best smartphone ever.
Magic eraser has been in the stock Samsung gallery app for a long time along with reflection eraser, remastering (like Photoshop auto edit) and they work well! When you have great zoom capabilities you can creatively crop people out of the frame.
In my experience Samsung's implementation is not that great, but its still a nice tool to have by default. Kudos for Samsung for that.
@@lloydpbabuHaving used both, I can't find Google's one better 🤷🏽♂️
Is the pixel 7 pro worth buying now or wait for the 8s pre order and get the free watch ?
All that is good but some of us open the photo app 4 times per year, how good is the battery that's what I want to know
This is why I use google pixel
"This video sponsored by google"
LOL
And? Dave is a known entity with a respected track record. Also not the first time he's done sponsored videos.
I own and use the P7 on a daily basis. Yeah its awesome these things are there but I think more magical is the overall experience that Pixel offers.
Just now, got an notification that I should expect traffic heading home and recommended another route. Now that's magic right there.
Update: I'm having more and more bugs showing up, especially connectivity issues. It's very distressing.
Do you get access to these tools for free on a Pixel? I would use them a fair bit if I had free access to them. But on my Flip it asks for the sub, which I'm not interested in paying.
I find a comment you made in this really interesting. The idea that holiday photos are for memories, and they are better memories with cleaned up photos. It's interesting as it is essentially editing memories in that case and then the photos and memories are actually real /true. It reminds me of that study where people where photoshopped into a photo of them in and air balloon as a child and shown to them and some recalled the air balloon ride, even though it never happened. Just a thought 🙂
"this video is sponsored by Google" ight imma head out
Oh no
Since you're talking about the Google Photos app specifically, I have to mention one inexplicably annoying thing about it:
The fact that by default, it categorizes every photo from every source under one really random Camera Roll, when the pictures are clearly saved at different destination folders in the phone's storage, Camera, Facebook (Especially Annoying), WhatsApp, Screenshots, Downloads, even Google Drive pictures from older phones, you name it, it is all grouped under "Camera Roll", and not to mention that in doing so, it actually takes up all the quota of your cloud storage as well.
Albums are a thing but it's different than categories by folders or destinations in the phone's directory, and again you would actually have to browse through that entire clusterf*** of files from every source known to mankind to even create those albums.
Honestly that alone forced me to download a 3rd party Gallery app just so I can make my life so much easier in that regard.
I'm no developer but I can't imagine fixing that would be that difficult, it's plagued the thing ever since it came out.
I like how objective you are. Even if it’s sponsored you are honest about the product. Reason why I watch all your videos.
Anyone know the wallpaper and themes dave is using? It's so clean. I need it
"This video is sponsored by Google" *leaves*
Exactly 💯
Why would you remove those people? Those are part of the memories so removing them kinda make your picture unreal and fake.
I have the magic eraser in Google Photo
Why don't I see the unblur tool in the app?
Dave, can you share a link to the wallpaper please?
if it's sponsored then the title is already questionable...😮
Am I the only one who finds it a bit odd that we’re now using AI to alter reality and twist our memories? Maybe I’m just getting old 😅
The unblur is alright in my mind but the other two are really weird.
People were there, why remove them? Take a different angle or work the people being there into the pic. It‘s a really weird mindset „cleaning up“ vacation photos imo.
I've always found taking pictures to be dumb anyway. Much prefer how I remember things in my head.
i have the pixel 7 and by god do these features help tremendously. saved a heckin lot of photos
Another great video. The image of your daughter being unblurred looked so good. Keep up the good work.
I never encourage watching sponsored videos 😮
Sponsored by....Google? That's a tough one. I'm all for a creator getting paid (especially you, Dave; i feel like the quality of your content far exceeds the size of your channel, which is far from 'small;' nonetheless i think you still don't quite get the credit you deserve), but it's a little tough when the creator reviews products from that company (amongst others, of course) for a living. Now, I trust Dave2D. I know this isn't a review, and I also know for sure this one sponsored piece would do nothing to slant your views of Google phones in the future. I am just saying, I hope this is a one off. Once that doubts seeps in (see Lew's video counts the past 12 months; that channel is going down, fast, and it's due to all of his content being sponsored by the company whose product he's reviewing), it's tough to come back. I don't want that to happen to this channel. This channel is too important, and selfishly, i enjoy it too much.
A reviewer being given review units doesn't make that a sponsored video so I'm not sure what you're talking about. The majority of his videos aren't sponsored by the company he's reviewing.
Cool things that were presented on the release, but I wanted to see how they work in real life.
Thanks for the review. Will be great if Google add upscale option to these 2 ones.
where can i get that blue wallpaper?
This is why I use the Pixel 7:
I'm sponsored.
Why Dave why a sponsored video ?! 😭 Don't become the OnePlus of TechTubers - start out great and then turn to shit
Yet another person who doesn't understand a sponsored video here and there has no effect on non-sponsored videos from *good* CZcamsrs
awesome video! where can we get the phone theme (icons) that you have Dave 🥳
How is the audio recording quality of Pixel ?????
I completely disagree with you for the first time. Removing people from your photos is like removing the audience from a concert. It makes cities look empty, events look dull and festivals look fake. Unblur tool is more in line with what could be useful for people, but I haven't used magic eraser since forever.
Agree. It's removing life from the image. Just what AI is doing to our society.
I feel its subjective preference, so I won't judge him on that..
Stopped watching at "Sponsored By Google".
I used the pixel 7a for photography but the battery was just drained too fast. Maybe the 8 will improve this weakness
Does anybody know which icon pack is he using?
I have a Pixel 7 and have tried this feature a fair bit. Personally, I think its pretty crap and nothing like this SPONSORED video. It leaves such a mess behind in the photos alot of the time or rough / jagged edges that actually spoil the photo. You could be squiggling the eraser around for hours on end trying to correct stuff and it still won't look right.
What's the use of amazing camera when the phone just overheats every time that stops camera app and drain battery
Which wallpaper at 0:02? Link please
Are these features avaliable in other phones? Like Samsung or Oneplus?
The object eraser is a cool idea and will certainly improve with time but playing about with it on my kids 7a I don't think its there yet. Loads of artefacts on removing objects even with straightforward sold object backgrounds.
Aren't these available for akl phones if we have a google one subscription
Background lighting looking insane today
Dave do be rocking that John Cusack look these days.
Did you get a new camera?
Hi Dave! Were you at Costco yesterday? I wanted to take a selfie but wasn't sure 😅
This is actually the first google sponsored youtube video I have ever watched
how about pixel 7 zoom? i sometimes use 3x for street photography
