Excelente Smartphone pero...
Excelente teléfono de Google. Rápido. Buena cámara. Buena memoria. Buena pantalla.Pero el envío se tardo más de 2 semanas y lo necesitaba con urgencia.

Less than 3 months of use and had to factory data reset
You would think for a flagship phone streaming music and trying to open a video file in a text message would not be a big deal, but turns out it can corrupt the OS and stop your phone from loading. Had to factory data reset it to get it working again. Did confirm with my friend that he sent the text and the video file had no issues, so it wasn't anything malicious.Had my LG Stylo 4 for over 3 years and never had to factory data reset it.Other issues-Garbage fingerprint sensor-Need 2 hands to unlock the phone if using passcode or pattern since the pad/grid is 2/3 the screen size-Default launcher makes a quarter of your home screen useless-Tiles in the Quick settings menu is now 3 times the size meaning less settings you can access quickly-Back button is on the left and cannot be moved to the right-Tried gesture navigation and in my opinion button navigation is better. Side gestures are triggered when side scrolling even on the lowest sensitivity-2 partition phone does not help with corrupt OS and make updates extremely slow-Updates blocked on unlocked phones by Google and/or provider-Ear buds died about 2 hours faster. Tested the ear buds on my old phone and ear buds were not the issueNow I know why Google would offer $100 off and enhanced trade in value for this phone only a month after it was released. Complete garbage.Will most definitely never purchase a Google branded product again. Going with used or going with Apple depending on what Google does with Android 13 and 14.

Honestly, a huge disappointment
I was very excited to upgrade to a Pixel 7 after using my old LG phone for almost 5 years. Unfortunately, the Pixel 7 turned out to be a huge disappointment.The deal-breaking issue for me is the poor connectivity. I have used Google Fi for almost 5 years, and it has worked well on my LG phone. However, after switching to the Pixel 7, I started having serious connectivity issues both in the US and abroad. I got the Pixel because I thought it would be the best for Fi, but this is clearly not the case.As others have noted, the finger print reader and facial recognition work poorly. I frequently forced to enter my password instead. This is disappointing, since the finger print reader on my 5-year old phone worked much better.Moreover, compared to my 5-year old LG ThinQ, this phone has lower resolution and a less bright display.I will get a Samsung or iPhone next time around.

Pixel in a budget. (A review after the launch of P7A)
If you have pushed your budget till 50k you might think why not buy an iPhone by applying some extra offers and ways to buy it instead of getting a pixel. You might be right if you are an Apple follower or just want to get into the ecosystem.For all the other consumers out there who prefer Android, well this is just the right phone to get.Design- Very distinctive, I mean anyone from a far will either recognise that this phone is a pixel or will come and ask you about a phone. (Side note it can be a conversation starter)Performance- If you do not game on your phone then this is a wise choice because let's face it, there are performance centeric devices out there that do not have such a budget and can full fill your gaming needs. (Personally I do do not game on my phone anymore as the PUBG MOBILE era has gone and I have moved to PC gaming myself). If gaming is not your concern then this phone performs very quick and snappily, be it going through multiple apps at once, opening closing of apps etc it is just fluid. If you are not a heavy gamer, you can casually game on your phone too it is capable enough.Screen- The screen is fluid and responsive to even the slightest touches. It is sharp enough to make the movie/series look very good with displaying all the colours accurately. And since it is an amoled, yes it has deep blacks and trust me the wallpaper looks stunning. Coming from a 60hz phone yes I have noticed the difference from 60 to 90 and it feels pretty good using the phone at 90hz.Camera- This is where a pixel never disappoints, it is said that a picture is worth more than a 1000 words and when you take a photo from this (with a creative mind, ofcourse not just point and shoot randomness) you can really tell a story. Apart from the pictures the pixel 7 has improved videography as well which many people complaint in the older pixel. Stable video can be shot over this phone and if you want to shoot some quality videos then this can do it no problem. (Also there is a YouTube channel which shows the capabilities of a pixel 6a which shoots at night as well as day, those videos look stunning. Just imagine what this bad boy can do then.)Battery- This is very debatable aspect of a phone, Pixel 7 has a battery that can last a day and half if you are not using it most of the time, let's say you are at your office working on your laptop, or while travelling focusing on the road, or eventually back at home and spending time with your family. In that case it will last. Where as on the other hand if you are continuously using your phone texting your friends, clicking photos videos uploading on socials making memories, going to places using navigation/GPS and a network then it may last you 3/4 of the day. And you are constantly gaming on it you may have to charge during the day maybe even twice.It all boils down on your usage. In my usage it lasted me a day with all the activities mentioned above, some mixed and some excluded. On an average I am getting an average of 5 hours before I kill the phone at night. I charge the phone overnight so there was no requirement of fast charge in the first place. Wireless charging comes in hand only if you have a fast chi charger.Few points to note:Pixel series is the smartest smartphone that you can buy.This phone has some editing magic when it comes to photos (eraser, unblur, motion capture etc)The haptics are really great and they do notify you well enough even if the phone is in pockets during a bike ride.Yesterday Google launched their pixel 7 a and I am not saying that it is un necessary but seeing what that delivers in that price makes me question the existence of pixel 7 because it is basically a pixel 7 with plastic back. A few differences apart (screen, build, cameras) if you are getting a chance to grab the pixel 7 not the 7a around 45k then definitely go this.Fingerprint reader did had some issues at the start but when you delete your finger scans a couple of times(let's say like 3-4) and then redo the scan it works well. Also I would recommend to scan and keep two prints of the same thumb to reduce any more errors.They have added face scan as well that works like a charm.Last thing I wanted to bring to your notice was that I received the Japanese version of the pixel, still did not arrive to reason till this day as to why was that? Even when pixels are started to ship out to India.On an ending note tho, I came from a pixel experience flashed k20 pro running on Android 13 so there was nothing really fancy that I liked about the stock Android because at this point i was using stock from 3 generations and stock is CLEAN.

Great feature packed phone at ₹45k
Got the phone at 45k with credit card discount. Out of the box, just connecting to WiFi, the phone was overheating with Dec 2022 patch from the factory.Used pixel repair with adb and USB debugging enabled by following the on-screen instructions from the site to install April 2023 update. I used adb pm to run background optimization after applying April 2023 and June 2023 feature drop. Also disabled dual sim dual standby along with 2G which improved battery life and reduced standby drain overnight (4%).I have disabled Dual Sim Dual Standby by dialing *#*#4636#*#* > Phone Info > Toggle Enable DSDS from On to OffPros:- CPU performance is almost yesteryear flagship and has enough power. Battery saver or extreme battery saver didn't hamper single core or multi core performance. Coming from 4a which lacked serious CPU/GPU power Tensor G2 is a capable SoC.- Display is great quality and color accurate- Worthy camera upgrade when coming from 4a and can record in 4k 30 HDR or 60 FPS on non HDR .- On device AI/ML is much faster than 4a and voice assistant doesn't use too much battery.-Speakers are very balanced and tuned for high volume output at max volume though you lose some mid low or bass focused music will not seem good.- Fp sensor and face is decent. It was fast enough- Build quality is top notch- LTE and WiFi is much better when upgrading from 4a. I thought LTE signal would be worse but it is only slightly better say -2 to -3dBm.- App optimization is top notch and 90Hz felt like 120Hz. Had to slow down animations to 5x on both 4a and 7 to notice huge difference when comparing 60Hz and 90Hz refresh rates. 4a and 7 UI is so slick and you'll notice only when scrolling a big text webpage and 90Hz is noticeable.- Clear Calling is great and helps in noisy or crowded place. On par or beats Apple's Voice Isolation feature.- Auto Spatial Audio on BT or headset. Almost on par Windows Sonic.Cons:- Better out of the box experience without resorting to adb and manually tune it.- 5G connectivity can be improved and currently its very aggressive as low signal drops it to LTE/4G.- Runs hotter on sustained workloads and throttle point is 42C after which SoC throttle down to maintain temperature. Needs vapor chamber with next version as graphite sheet can only dissipate heat away and not cool it under heavy loads.- No Google VPN- Launch Price was on higher side- No free uploads to Photos app which was available on 4a.- No power adapter in the box and somewhat slower charge speed, if you have Google 18W PD adapter use the same as 20/22V PPS with 30W adapter barely makes difference.

Amazing product
The phone itself is a masterpiece the AI makes the photos more realistic that what it shows. The stock android is already a thing that i am attracted to. So, it checks all my boxes for buying it.The fingerprint scanner is not great as that of Oneplus but not as bad either the on screen scanner is around just below the center of screen so, its a weird position but overall its ok. Once you have scanned a finger correctly (tho it took me a few tries) it didnt have any problem recognising it.UI is of stock android is already good and free of bloatware so its a blessing in disguise. The AI really learns from your day to day working around the phone and optimize the battery around it. A lot of features as Transcribe and Live captions help a lot when you are not able to play sound in reels but you want to know whats going on. It live transcribes what they are speaking. A lot of wonderful features.But oh boy the Camera is above all, tensor G2 chip really knows it way around photographs. What is shown on screen while capturing will differ by heavens after its processed. The processed image Crisp and crystal clear.10/10 would recommend as its value for money

The worst mobike you could buy in this segment
This is japanese model not induan version. The service centre couriers the devise to abroad if any service to be done out of warranty.The mobile heats up for normal usage also and doesn't allow you to take video more than 20min as this heats up with a pop up.Camera sounds can't be switched off the heat was about 44 degrees peak which i was unable to hold the phone in hand better go for iphone for few buck extra.Photo camera is great but video sucks at low light conditions the best thing you can do is go for alternative mobilesBy the way i broke my screen in just 12 days of buying this mobile.

Overall Review
It's the finest Android phone with the cleanest UI I have ever used. The photos from the device are even better and clearer than apple's and the updates are smooth and recurring enough on regular intervals . I am highly satisfied with the purchase.
