The Google Pixel 7 Pro has finally been launched in India and phone lovers are busy checking out reviews of the newly unleashed gadget - not necessarily with the intention to buy, but at least to know how far has Google come in understanding its users' pain points! Well let's just say with a purchase price of ₹84,999, it doesn't have the first checkbox ticked yet. Unless course, the 128GB storage, 12GB RAM and a triple camera setup with Google’s machine learning and image processing capabilities is really your game!
The Google Pixel 7 series offers both Dual SIM and eSIM support. You get a single Nano SIM card slot on the new Pixel phones, but an eSIM can also go along with it. They are also looking to support two eSIMS shortly. The phone features a 6.7-inch Quad-HD LTPO OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, it runs on Android 13 and is powered by the Tensor G2 chipset. With India moving up on the 5G game, the Google Pixel 7 Pro comes enabled with 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, NFC and a USB Type-C port. There’s the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus at the front and the back of the phone. 
Google has upped the game for making a phone a better phone - That's right!! Finally, someone also thought of that feature of a mobile calling device! It has mechanisms installed to filter out background noise in your calls - some of these features may be available after the next few firmware updates. But it seems the current voice quality is also fairly better a lot of its peers. Good job, Google!!
There are reports about the phone being a no-nonsense Google piece but also about the battery draining out if the phone is used at full brightness for a couple of minutes. Now that's a bummer for us using it at night or in the outdoors! Some users are even complaining of the scrolling issue - It seems the phone’s touchscreen constantly sticks on the backstroke of your finger when flicking to scroll. Sometimes the flickering is faster, at times it is slower than intended. And the keyboard laziness is apparent here too while typing.
Anyway, just because Android is everywhere doesn't mean that Google has to be everywhere and good at everything. For low-end phones, it still is ok, but at the higher end, Samsung and Apple have pretty much been calling the shots and for the right reasons. But we will wait for you to get there, G!
