Google Pixel 7 Pro 1 year later: Tensor stands the test of time

Don’t upgrade your Pixel 7 Pro straight away. You might be better off holding onto it. Let’s talk about that in our Google Pixel 7 Pro review 1 year later.

It's funny how people seriously consider throwing away a year-old phone but praise Google for its 7-year update support.

Prior to owning the Pixel 6 Pro, the 2 phones I had before that, I ran with for ~3 years each. The Pixel 6 Pro was problematic for me, so I purchased the Pixel 7 Pro a bit after it became available. The 7 Pro has been a solid phone for me.

Great long term review of the 7Pro. I went from the P5 to the 8Pro, absolutely loving it!

I got my 7 Pro back in May of this year. Yes, it has a few issues, but I've really enjoyed using this phone. I can't put it down.

Coming from a Galaxy S10, I'm extremely happy with my P7P. I don't see a need to switch until the 9 or 10. I did that with Samsung too, ie i went from S3 to S5 to S7 to S10, before switching to Pixel.

I started out with the pixel 3 then went to the pixel 6 Pro then the pixel 7 Pro. All have been great phones. I don't plan on upgrading until the Pixel 10

Just upgraded from a 6a to a P7P, I originally wanted to wait until the release of the 8a to upgrade, but Amazon was doing a killer deal on the P7P this week so went with that instead. I am not disappointed.

i have owned multiple units of the 7 pro had a great experience owned a 7 and ive been daily driving the 7a for a about a week now its been such a solid choice for me im going to keep it for years to come

I had a bunch of bugs with the Pixel 7 Pro. It got ironed out now with Android 14 but I can't get over the fact that Google offers a low ball trade in for their own phone. Horrible resale value.

[telomir]

happy with my p7p. android 14 (more specifically the betas) have done wonders. I may consider the p9p. didnt even bat an eye at the p8p this year.

Thank you 🙏, may I know a battery health ? After prolonged use ? I don't see such a test by YouTube reviews? Would be great to see ☺️

7 Pro owner here. Was still happy with it overall. After it sustained damage, Google replaced my Pixel 7 Pro. Took advantage of the situation and sold it, as i could ask more than others as it was new. Going to upgrade to the 8 Pro with discount from my carrier and it will only cost me €150 at the end of the 2 years. I wish I could upgrades to the new gen for 150 every year

(Yes I know I did spend 300 to get Google to replace the device, otherwise I was left with nothing)

[KEYBEATZ]

For me the pixel 7 pro has been a fantastic phone for me. The only difference I've seen between the 7pro and 8pro is the display, and better cameras(which the Pixel 7 pros cameras are no slouch) the 8pro does feel a little better in the hands but it's not quite enough to upgrade at least for me

[DanniPortillo]

I have the Pixel 5 and with the Black Friday deals at G Store the price of the 8 pro drops to $799 I’ll go with it

[gianpaolohank]

Im currently owning a pixel 7 and wondering if I should upgrade to the 8. In honesty the phone is still great but this new trend of leave out older generation of phones of new features is something that really annoys me.

[vaultboy]

Just got one refurbished straight from Google tester for about $250. Last Pixel was a 6a that I got rid of in favor for an iPhone 13 Pro. I'm hoping it's good, since for that price, you can't really do any better. The $900 Google still asks for it now is way too overboard.

[TanujRoy]

Thanks for making and sharing this video, all other videos just want people to buy the new phones every year

I respect your standpoint but I'll respectfully disagree.
The 7 Pro was way more of an iterative upgrade than the 8 Pro. Tensor G2 was basically G1 with a slightly better modem. The screen was the same power-hungry, low-end LTPO as the 6 Pro as well. Only the ultrawide camera was improved.

I love the Pixel software so much but was so annoyed by the 7 Pro's battery, thermals and optimization that I got the 8 Pro immediately when I saw the positive reviews, and man does this phone fly. It never gets hot for me anymore, the battery is better, the flat screen is a joy, Tensor G3 actually behaves well, the screen is way brighter and less power-hungry, the cameras are amazing, and the phone feels much faster.

If you have the money, it's 100% worth it to upgrade. I'm usually not a person to recommend a 1-year upgrade because I'm planning to keep this 8 Pro for at least 3 years now, but the 7 Pro was not a great flagship, just a good one.

I just wanna comment that you can turn up the volume on your speech and do some EQ - it's hard to hear and quite muddy. thanks
