With the Pixel 6, Google has managed to breathe new life into its range of smartphones. The Pixel 7 comes as a slightly revamped version, but still affordable.
Like its predecessor, the Google Pixel 7 is an excellent smartphone. It benefits from a beautiful screen, a powerful SoC and a very good photo sensor duo. In addition, its price positioning makes it more affordable than the vast majority of its high-end competitors, without making any real concessions. We can certainly blame him for his heating in game, his always slow recharging or his too great similarity with the Pixel 6, but these defects weigh little with regard to the general experience, even more intuitive under Android 13.
Strong points
- A slightly softer design.
- A beautiful OLED screen.
- The power of Tensor G2.
- Two very good photo sensors.
- Convincing autonomy.
Weak points
- Heat up in game.
- Charging too slow.
NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
Large smartphone with a completely renewed design, compared to previous Pixels, and quite divisive, the Pixel 6 Pro benefits from impeccable manufacturing quality, but also from a beautiful adaptive 120 Hz Oled screen. If we can regret its passable autonomy, the smartphone stands out from the crowd of premium models – billed a few hundred euros more than it – by its uncompromising power, but also its versatility in photography, especially at night, driven by Google’s algorithms. A success, then.
