It is a little hit and miss but is almost miraculous when it works, and can process new and old photos alike in only a few taps.

HOME DESIGNER SUITE 2018 REVIEW ANDROID
The Pixel 7 Pro runs the same version of Android 13 as Google’s other smartphones.
New for this year is convenient but less secure camera-based face recognition, plus a faster in-screen fingerprint sensor for unlocking the phone. Google will recycle old devices free of charge. The company publishes environmental impact reports for some of its products.
The Pixel 7 Pro is made with 100% recycled aluminium, accounting for about 19% of the phone by weight. Out-of-warranty screen repairs by Google will cost similar to its predecessor at about £200, and battery replacements about £100. The phone is repairable by Google and third-party shops, with genuine replacement parts available direct from iFixit.
HOME DESIGNER SUITE 2018 REVIEW FULL
Google does not provide an expected lifespan for the battery but it should last in excess of 500 full charge cycles with at least 80% of its original capacity. Water resistance: IP68 (1.5m for 30 minutes) Photograph: Samuel Gibbs/The Guardian SpecificationsĬamera: 50MP + 12MP ultrawide + 48MP 5-10x telephoto, 10.8MP selfieĬonnectivity: 5G, eSIM, wifi 6E, UWB, NFC, Bluetooth 5.2 and GNSS The Pixel 7 Pro takes about 100 minutes to fully charge, hitting 50% in 33 minutes using a 30W USB-C power adaptor (not included). Turning off the always-on display increased battery life by about two hours. That is a little short of the competition but good enough for a day of heavy use. The phone feels very responsive, particularly when performing tasks such as dictating messages and other smart systems, which can be up to 2.5 times as fast as the already rapid Pixel 6, according to Google’s estimates.īattery life is also similar to the Pixel 6 Pro, lasting about 34 to 36 hours between charges with the screen set to its default FHD+ resolution and actively used for about five hours. Google’s latest Tensor G2 chip at the phone’s heart has similar general performance to last year’s version but with significantly faster AI processing. It is a very big phone but its relatively light 212g weight and curved sides make it a little narrower and slightly easier to hold than some rivals. The camera bar design still divides opinion but there is no doubt it stands out against the crowd.
