Google spoken its new flagship smartphone series, and we’re here to compare them. In this article, we’ll compare the Google Pixel 7 vs Google Pixel 7 Pro. As you probably once know, these two phones are quite similar in many ways. Still, there are a number of differences that make the Pixel 7 Pro the ‘Pro’ of the two models. The question is, are those differences worth the uneaten money. The Pixel 7 Pro is quite a bit increasingly expensive, starting at $899, compared to the $599 price tag of the Pixel 7.
We do hope that this vendible will help you make a purchasing decision. We’ll first list their specifications, and will then move to a number of other categories. We’ll take a squint at their designs, displays, performance, shower situation, cameras, and audio aspects. Do note that this is an early comparison, without less than a day of use. So, this is not a full review or anything of the sort, we’re working on those as we speak. That stuff said, let’s get started.

Google Pixel 7 vs Google Pixel 7 Pro: Design
The Google Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, unsurprisingly sport the same diamond language. They’re far from stuff identical, though. The Pixel 7 is smaller, and that goes for both height and width, while it’s moreover slightly thinner as well. It is moreover lighter on top of everything. The Pixel 7 moreover has a unappetizing display, which is 0.4 inches smaller in diagonal. That’s the main reason why this phone is smaller overall, of course.
Both smartphones do have a centered exhibit camera hole, and thin bezels. The Pixel 7 Pro does include a curved display, though. The ‘Pro’ model moreover has an uneaten camera on the back. It has three cameras in its camera visor, while the Pixel 7 has two. Speaking of which, the camera visor is now protected by metal. It looks increasingly premium this way, and it’s increasingly protected, but the Pixel 6’s camera visor was increasingly aesthetically pleasing due to the unrelatedness between materials. That’s arguable, though, of course.
Both phones are quite slippery in the hand. They’re made from aluminum and glass, though you’ll find that their aluminum finish is variegated in comparison. Both devices are IP68 certified for water and pebbles resistance as well, and they do finger somewhat similar to the Pixel 6 series. The weight distribution does seem to be largest here, though, at least that’s what we thought without our initial hands-on. We do recommend getting a case, regardless of which phone you end up buying.
Google Pixel 7 vs Google Pixel 7 Pro: Display
These two phones do have variegated displays. The Pixel 7 comes with a smaller, 6.3-inch fullHD (2400 x 1080) AMOLED panel. That is a 90Hz display, and it’s flat. It offers a 416 PPI, and it’s protected by the Gorilla Glass Victus. This exhibit gets up to 1,400 nits of peak brightness, and it supports HDR10 content. It moreover has a 1 million:1 unrelatedness ratio, and full 24-bit verisimilitude depth for 16 million colors.
The Pixel 7 Pro, on the flip side, includes a 6.7-inch QHD (3120 x 1440) LTPO OLED display. This panel is curved, and it has a 120Hz refresh rate (adaptive). We’re looking at a 512 PPI here, while this panel is moreover protected by the Gorilla Glass Victus. This exhibit gets up to 1,500 nits of peak brightness, it moreover supports HDR, and has the same unrelatedness ratio. It moreover offers full 24-bit depth for 16 million colors.
Both of these displays are unquestionably really good. They offer punchy colors, unconfined viewing angles, and deep blacks. They moreover do get quite unexceptionable when you need them to. The Pixel 7 Pro’s exhibit is sharper, and it offers a higher refresh rate. The vast majority of people won’t notice the difference in refresh rate, though, and the same goes for the resolution difference. The Pixel 7 is increasingly than sharp unbearable for most people. What you should ask yourself, though, is whether you prefer smaller unappetizing displays, or huge curved ones.
Google Pixel 7 vs Google Pixel 7 Pro: Performance
Both of these phones are fueled by the Google Tensor G2. They moreover include LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 wink storage. The Pixel 7 comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB/256GB of storage. The Pixel 7 Pro includes 12GB of RAM and 128GB/256GB/512GB of storage. Technically, the performance shouldn’t be that much variegated day-to-day, and without our initial usage, that seems to be true.
Both of these phones do a unconfined job thus far. They can multitask really fast, the same goes for opening and latter apps. Some games we tried to run worked perfectly fine, and we still didn’t notice any excessive heat. As once mentioned, though, we didn’t use them for long thus far, so that may change. You’ll have to wait for our full review. Thus far, though, they both perform admirably with no outstanding quirks or lag.
Google Pixel 7 vs Google Pixel 7 Pro: Battery
The Google Pixel 7 comes with a 4,355mAh battery, while the Pixel 7 Pro includes a 5,000mAh unit. Quite frankly, we didn’t spend nearly unbearable time with either phone to judge their shower life. The 5,000mAh shower topics should be unbearable for the ‘Pro’ model, but the regular one is a bit worrying. This phone has a higher refresh rate and a larger exhibit than the Pixel 6a, which has a slightly larger battery. So, we’re not too optimistic, to be quite honest. Who knows, though, perhaps Google manages to surprise us thanks to the Tensor G2 and some optimizations.
In terms of charging, we believe it remains unchanged in comparison to last year. Google did not personize word-for-word charging speeds, but it did share some info. You can get up to 50-percent tuition in well-nigh 30 minutes with a uniform charger. Speaking of which, the charger is not included in the box, but the phone support USB-PD 3.0 (PPS) charging. We believe it will take virtually 2 hours to fully tuition these devices, a bit less for the Pixel 7. We could be wrong though. Speaking of charging, both phones offer up to 23W wireless charging, and moreover reverse wireless charging support.
Google Pixel 7 vs Google Pixel 7 Pro: Cameras
The cameras are usually some of the most interesting parts of Pixel phones. Google decided to alimony the hardware very similar here, with some changes to the selfie camera. On the back, you’ll find a 50-megapixel ISOCELL GN1 main camera, paired with a 12-megapixel ultrawide unit (114-degree for the Pixel 7, and 125.8-degree FoV for the Pixel 7 Pro). The front-facing camera is a 10.8-megapixel unit that will be used for squatter unlock as well. The Pixel 7 Pro moreover has a 48-megapixel telephoto camera on the when now, which now offers plane largest performance, and remoter zoom.
The initial impressions with the cameras are unquestionably really good. The performance seems to be similar to the Pixel 6 series, which is not bad at all. The selfie camera does seem to be improved, expressly in low light. Both phones handle HDR like champs, as you’d expect them to, based on previous Pixel cameras. We didn’t get a endangerment to test out the video performance just yet, though. In any case, the expectations are upper for these cameras. You’ll be worldly-wise to get all the details in our full reviews. What we’re wondering well-nigh the most are the improvements to the selfie camera, Real Tone, video recording, and unstipulated low light performance.
Audio
In terms of audio, there’s not really much to say here. They both pack in a set of stereo speakers, which sound similar to last year. Once again, the ‘Pro’ model does seem to offer very slightly clearer output, but it could be just a placebo effect. Both sets of speakers are quite punchy, and they are moreover well-balanced. You’ll moreover get some toned out of them.
You will not find an audio jack on either one of these two phones. That’s not surprising at all, as Google removed the headphone jack from its mid-range series as well. You can segregate between Bluetooth and a Type-C connection, depending on whether you’d like to go wireless or not. Bluetooth 5.2 is supported here, by the way.
