Google pixel review8/22/2023 There is a "Natural" color mode if you do want to tone that down, though. It's sharp, bright enough to easily see outside and it's got bold, punchy colors that I found lent themselves well to vibrant YouTube videos, but still managing not to look overly saturated or unrealistic. The display measures 6.7-inches and has a 3,120x1,440-pixel resolution - exactly the same as the 6 Pro. It could even develop a nice patina, like aged brass tools, that actually enhances the look. Whether that's a problem remains to be seen. I do worry, however, that the shiny aluminum strip could be susceptible to damage - in the short time I've been using it, several small hairline scratches are visible on its surface and over time that could become more pronounced. It's IP68 rated for water- and dust-resistance, so spilled drinks are no concern. The design updates give it a stylish look. The Pixel's shots are beautiful, offering some of the best-looking shots of any phone around, but it's not top of the class when it comes to night mode images, so keep that in mind if dark city streets are your photo subject of choice. I've spent a lot of time testing the cameras, putting it up against the iPhone 14 Pro and putting its zoom lens against the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. I claimed battery life was good, but not outstanding in my initial review, and I stand by that - you can get a full day of use, but don't expect to get far into the second day if you don't give it a charge overnight. I still love the refreshed design, the Android 13 software runs beautifully well and while on benchmark tests that Tensor G2 chip might not be a powerhouse, I'm yet to find anything in the real world that can really slow it down. You can read my deeper thoughts on how the phone has coped in this time, but in short I'm still just as impressed with it as when I first published this review in October. It's mid-November and I've now spent over a month using the Pixel 7 Pro since it first landed in my hands.
