I suppose I can hold out hope for a grippier Pixel 8 Pro. This was something I’d hoped Google would address this year since the Pixel 6 Pro had the same issue, but shiny and slippery seems to be the name of the game for Pro Pixels. Whereas the Pixel 7 unit I received in the Lemongrass colorway has some grip along the frame, the new Pro likes to slide out of my hand or off of slightly unlevel surfaces. If I had to lodge one complaint against the Pixel 7 Pro’s hardware, it’d be that it’s a slippery device. Whether it’s the metal camera bar that seamlessly blends into the frame or the prominent camera lenses that immediately draw your eye, the Pixel 7 Pro is a beautiful device in all three of its color options. You can clearly see the design language that Google introduced last year, but the company refined it to a T for 2022. Let’s take a moment to admire the Pixel 7 Pro, especially the Hazel colorway I received for review. Note that the Pixel 7 Pro has a bigger display with a faster refresh rate, and it's the only current Pixel with a dedicated telephoto lens. Since releasing its flagships last fall, Google has subsequently come out with the cheaper Pixel 7a, which costs $400 less than the Pixel 7 Pro while featuring a Tensor G2 chip of its own. The Pixel 7 Pro went on sale last October, and you can find it at all major carriers as well as on retail site like Amazon and Best Buy. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus don’t even have telephoto lenses or adaptive 120Hz displays. Yet, Google’s handset offers more than those phones, such as a telephoto lens with a 5x optical zoom. You simply get more storage for your buck with the Pixel 7 Pro.Įven lower on the totem pole, the Pixel 7 Pro is only $100 more than the Galaxy S22 and iPhone 14, $100 less than the Galaxy S22 Plus, and the same price as the iPhone 14 Plus. That’s a great value considering the likes of the Galaxy S22 Ultra ($1,199), iPhone 14 Pro ($999) and iPhone 14 Pro Max ($1,099) all feature 128GB in their base models. The Pixel 7 Pro starts at $899 / £849 / AU$1,299 for a base model with 12GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Google Pixel 7 Pro review: Price and availability
