Thanks for the tip on disabling 5G.
Got a Pixel 7 last week and loving the camera on it, I own mirrorless cameras and the quality of photos from it is really good.
Miss having a back button but getting us to swiping.
Any tips I should be aware of?

The Google Camera app is getting a major UI overhaul with the Pixel 8 series
The first big UI overhaul since 2019. A source related to Android AUthority shared screenshots of the new Google Camera UI redesign, which will likely be...
You can turn the back button back on. Go to settings - system - gestures - system navigation - select 3 button navigation.

Likewise thanks @kration , I really missed the buttons and didn't even know it was an option on the pixel7pro, much better

Had my 7 pro since it came out , one thing that i hate is if im outside and its slightly warm, like Saturday morning just gone, the screen dims in the sunlight, even on manual full brightness.
Basically making the phone unusable outside, nothing you can alter to make it better, apart from go inside and out of the sun!

Must be really hot as I've had my 6 Pro in sunlight as a sat nav and it's been fine.
Or its possibly faulty.

I'm thinking of selling my S22 and picking up a Pixel 7 for £390. Was the P7 an improvement over the P6?

No software update this month or are we going straight to Android 14 soon ....

Absolutely, I had the 6 and the FP scanner and mobile signal were utterly rubbish. On the 7 they're great and I think it may be the best phone I've owned.
Soldato
Aw man, that's the exact reasons I got rid of my P6. If the P7 had those issues resolved then I'll give it some serious thought, although I'll see what the P8 has to offer first.
I'm seriously thinking of taking the opportunity to buy the P7 and sit a generation behind because it's just much more cost effective.

Those were the reasons I binned my 6 too. Went iOS after that as I exhausted my patience with android and google. Haven’t gone back yet but have been tempted by 7 many times.
I'm thinking the same. How bad is the battery on the 7 or pro?
Some mixed reports with good and some claiming it's really awful.

There's a way to stop this happening as it was annoying me as well. It's in the developer settings but I can't remember what it is. A Google search should do the trick hopefully.
