Fact check: Google revealed that Tensor G2 is actually 5nm, not 4nm 👍🏾
😅😅
Ok
Your intros better day by day
@Mason Get lost bro
Get ready Twitter about to blow up over this 🤦♂️
Pro tip for college students: what discovered this semester is Google Docs also has a built-in voice-text feature, and it works fairly good if your professor speaks loud and clear! You will have to make corrections but it might do a good enough job for you to focus on the lecture and not note taking! Wish I found this sooner on in my time of college haha
With that feature, focus won't be on lectures but on daydreaming
Wish more professors were loud and clear tho 😕
The recorder on the pixel transcribes and it is surprisingly accurate
The act of note taking helps recall IMO
Office 365 also has a dictate function
Love that you dedicate a slot for sustainability. Just as an upgrade, the programmed obsolescence has way more impact than the packaging. 2 years of software upgrades and 5 of security upgrades makes a more sustainable device than a few grams of recycled materials!
I still have a Pixel 5a and I love it. It honestly is all I need in a phone personally. Does everything I need it to, and is unbelievably affordable. I used to go for the Samsung flagships, and if things keep going the way they are now, I'll probably never switch back. Probably gonna snatch up the 7a when it comes out.
Same here, currently loving the pixel 5a. Gonna miss the fingerprint location when I get the newer pixel
@@leonsinclair SAME
i also use pixel 5a. but if you use google fi, the pixel 7 is currently 200 bucks off! i couldn't resist so i got one for me and my wife.
I bought a cheap Japanese Pixel 5a when I heard the pixel 6a was not gonna have a headphone jack and back finger print scanner. Will eventually upgrade to pixel 7a but I liked the older style phones with headphone jacks and rear finger print scanners.
Does the 5a still run smoothly today? I'm just curious cause I just got the pixel 7 pro and am hoping to keep it for 4 years at least
I’m going to start calling my hardware problems “hard problems” but I will never call software solutions “soft answers.”
Love your music
I'm reading this comment on loop

This is a fantastic comment.

I now can't distinguish if the intro B-Roll shots of the phone are from Google or from MKBHD - incredible.
nice
was thinking the same exact thing aha
13:27 also that
Me neither
I'd say MKBHD solely based on the smudges on the metal visor.
I just want to point out what a fresh breath of air your presentation and editing are. The need to content creates to have puzzled or expressive faces and a misleading thumbnail make RUclips reviews frustrating before they even start. i appreciate the clean straight forward deliver you choose and I search out your views for all things tech specifically for this reason. In my eyes, this is what makes your channel head and shoulders above most every other tech review channel.
About 3 months in and my Pixel 7 is going great. My major frustration and disappointment, the fingerprint recognition has resolved itself (magic or software upgrade?). The battery is excellent, no problem going a whole day. I changed over from an iPhone (something I thought would be daunting but it was so simple) and can't imagine ever wanting to go back. The software in this phone makes it smart in so many ways I feel it's a step ahead of the competition. Love my Pixel 7.
I’m honestly thinking of switching from an iPhone to this phone. So videos like this and comments like yours are marking me fore confident to make the switch.
Same here, really happy with my Pixel 7. Just wish it had a better front camera, that's been my only major disappointment. For a line of phones known for their camera quality, they really dropped the ball with the front camera.
That plus the fact that the home screen search bar can't be removed or even repositioned at all without using a separate launcher, but I can live with that.
My phone gives barely 3 hours of screen on time heats up like crazy w the slightest camera use and the network bands and the idle battery drain is intolerable
Would choose google over apple anyday now. Initially Google didn't make good phones, but they have improved so much and they are much better than apple now.
I couldn't imagine ever caring this much about a cell phone lmao
"Photo unblurring" was literally my final project in "image processing" course (Electrical Engineering).
You basically need to find two parameters:
Power - How strong is the blur, meaning - how far was the pixel moved from its original place.
Angle - The angle of the pixels movement in a coordinate system
There is some math going to achieve that, you have to make a Fourier transform to the image to change it into the "frequency domain", then find the angle and the length of the "strips" that you are getting from the image, and viola! you just calculated the two parameters that you need. Now you have to make another Fourier transform to return to the "time domain". With the 2 parameters you have just calculated, you can reverse the process of the blurring effect.
TBH, I'm not working as a signal processing engineer, but as a DevOps Engineer :)
I think everyone in EE should take a DIP course as a tech elective. Really gives a good perspective of imagery as a concept
I geniuenly love that you wrote "viola". Please don't change it. Made my day (in a good way). Bless you, stay healthy! :)
That sounds like computer vision. Were you writing that program in python or something else?
@@markonikolic7957 In Matlab XD
Majored in subjects that include the following courses -
1. Signal processing: Image processing, DSP, Random signal processing
2. Computer engineering - VHDL, Real time systems, Advanced computer architectures.
But I mostly enjoyed the electronics courses and modern physics.
Good 👍
I love how whenever you do Apple/Google reviews you always pay homage to their ad campaigns, including the smallest details, such as colors, framing, song choices, all of it

After 5 years on iOS it was time to come home. Pixel 7 has sold me on Android once again.
Yeah. Just ordered a Pixel Pro 7 and I'm excited. Never used Android until I got a deal on a cheap Oppo phone and learned the Android OS. Even though it's really slow I was using it more than my Apple XR. I did a lot of research and this is the phone I chose to make the final switch. Looking forward to it!
Welcome home. Welcome home
Wait till u sell it after an year 💀
Why@@escanor915
I like my iPhone 15 pro but I must say that all of the Exclusive pixel features are very useful and I really miss them. Im thinking about switching back to pixel for good. Its the cleanest and most unique experience on the android side in my opinion. I may decide to do it when they make the 8 Pro cheaper due to the 9 series coming out.
I absolutely LOVE all of the cool features of this phone, and I still haven't gone through everything yet. I was done with Samsung anyways, after almost 10 years, but it was nice that the Pixel 7 Pro was THIS amazing.
why did you stop using samsung?
@TewPaqs for me, it's because im on my third fold 3 in 8 months. Every time something stops working, samsung say user error and try and make you pay. All three faults on my fold 3 where just hardware faults.
@@TewPaqs I relinquished Samsung too. For the phone started showing some screen issues that Samsung isn't acknowledging and asking us to pay for the fix. Having already paid huge money for the phone, heart broken when the phone develops some hardware issues in less than 2 year usage. Although many users have complained about the green screen issue in S20 series, in public forums including Samsung community forums, they do not acknowledge.
@@yuvaraj80 my s21+ has screen burn. It's 2 years old, I had the same issue with my s8 although it was worse on that phone. Not to mention the paint that's also come off the sides even though it's been in a case since new
I dropped my S10+ 35 feet(still kinda works) so I decided I'd pick up a pixel since I've wanted to try it for a while. But not being able to easily change media output is fucking ridiculously annoying. Afaik only RUclips and RUclips Music bring up the card where you can change it
The recorder app would be incredible for university students, to transcribe lectures. When I was in college I remember frantically trying to write down everything the professor said (so I could just rely on notes later and not do the reading). With this app, you don't even have to take notes anymore, and if a student asks a question, the app will even label the different speakers, so you can transcribe an entire Q&A. And transcribing is not the same as recording, so you won't be breaking any rules.
There are third party apps that do this , I do hope google solution has better quality though. They are good in ai stuff
Also, for subtitles.
@@nehemoth You're right. Isn't there such a job as a transcriber? Where you get paid to listen to stuff and transcribe it? Couldn't you just use this app? Free money LOL.
@@QuantumBraced a phone can take photos, but its not the same thing as contracting a photographer.
@@user-fr2fm3ri3w Pixel has always had the picture recorded but to the level that is doing it now nobody's close to it and even still with the current version nobody's close to that either
"But for patient Pixel people who prefer pristine programming and pretty pictures, the Pixel Pro is pretty perfect." Really liked this alliteration at the end!
Pixel phones age well
right super clever!
Shoulda ended it with "Peace!"
Ewe, not me. Alliteration makes my skin crawl. Not sure why.
And it's funny because if you look at his search history earlier in the video you can see he searched for "alliterations for P"
I went from iPhone 13 to Pixel 7 and love it.
I like the way you give accurate descriptions not just flag shipping one phone thanks.
Hey, Marques. I just wanted to let you know that Tensor G2 is confirmed by Google to be built on Samsung’s 5nm process, not 4nm. Love your work.
The usual MKB attention to detail
Which is better ...5nm or 4?
@@olumideaanu5403 4 should be better as it would be more efficient/ more powerful/ a combination of the two. The smaller the process the closer everything is.
This is tech youtuber? Really? And he doesnt know these basic things ! Thats unacceptable !
@@olumideaanu5403 it's the same node, 4nm is just a slight iteration of the 5nm node
for patient pixel people who prefer pristine programming and pretty pictures the pixel pro is pretty perfect ✨
I was wondering if anyone appreciated the alliteration here lol
perfect prose proffered politely
Yeah i was about to write this whole thing he said. Glad people noticed ☺️
Watching him try to get through the whole line without cracking was very funny.
Literally scrolled just for this *chef's kiss*
That's some pretty good alliteration there at the end :D
At 4:26, you can see he had searched alliterations with P
The last line. What an alliteration! Love your reviews macha!
I can’t believe it’s been five years since the Pixel 2 launched. I remember it being super unique and special for the time. Really feel old now.
Here I am going back deep into the Nexus phones.
I loved my pixel 2 XL. Great phone
I am still using my Pixel 2.

Mee too 😂

Are you that much of a loser? I bet your wife is cheating on you.
I've always been partial towards the Galaxy S and Note lineup. Previously had the S4, Note 4, Note 7 (had to change it out to the LG V20), S8+, and the Note 10+. My Note 10+ lost video output and touch, so I had to get a new phone quickly, and went with the iPhone 14 Pro Max, to which I didn't really prefer UI-wise. so I ultimately paid the restocking fee and traded it in for the Pixel 7 Pro. I love this phone. It's simple, has no extra apps I never used from Samsung, easy to setup and personalize, and I'm excited to check out a lot of these cool features. The camera is awesome, too!
As always Marques- a fantastic review. I had the Pixel 6 pro right when it came out, and I returned it within a week due to all of the issues. I was impressed with the phone and really wanted to keep it, but it was plagued with issues- especially the fingerprint scanner almost never worked even after registering the same finger multiple times. I think the optical fingerprint scanner is an issue especially during colder weather. I received my Pixel 6 pro in December. I believe the colder weather, lower humidity, lower skin hydration makes the optical sensor struggle. I find that the ultrasonic on the S21 worked better than the Pixel optical scanner in all scenarios, but also noticed that when my skin was more hydrated (warmer weather) it worked better. I also tested my theory this past winter by applying lotion at times and noticed the scanner would work better. This may explain why some people had less issues with the Pixel 6 fingerprint scanner based on time of year and location (weather). I think adding the facial recognition helps the Pixel 7, but really the Samsung ultrasonic sensor is better and also include facial recognition. Personally I feel if they brought back the capacitive sensors and placed it on the back of the phone- I would prefer those- they worked perfectly all the time. The Pixel is the more innovative, but the Samsung more practical and dependable. Also for me the 10X optical lens in the S21 is preferred since I do a lot of video and photography of my daughter performances at a distance. Thanks again for a great review!
These intro's are better than any other phone company is capable of at the moment.
Huge stretch
Hell nah apple is on the next level with their ads samsung too ngl

just upgraded from my 4 year old pixel 3xl to a pixel 7. fantastic upgrade, love it.
That's the phone I have and I'm eagerly awaiting my 7 pro.
The unblur feature is really impressive. It's amazing to see technology is still evolving.
Yet next year apple is going to copy this new Pixel feature and claim they invented it.
Unblur tech has been in photoshop for almost a decade now.
@@Jo5ue1 It's a cycle. All tech companies do this to a certain extent.
@@alternatereality7713 yeah but adobe is like software multiplied by software. Adobe has loads of other AI-related features that work like software magic which would be really cool to see on phones. Imagine the 3d tracking AI from adobe on phones, you could add like space ships into your video and other stuff.
Can't wait for the unblur feature in my Google glasses on a night out
Amazing alliteration at the end! I took a chance and preordered the 7 Pro before the embargo was lifted, I'm glad to see there are no glaring problems at this point.
It will be a great upgrade from my aging Pixel 4 XL.
I said out loud "Got damn!"
Same boat. Pre ordered yesterday, upgrading from my 4XL
Just pre-ordered mine. Also upgrading from a 4XL.
Mine is a 3xl and I was waiting for the 7 just because 7 is my favorite number lol
Also upgrading from a 4xl
That outro was pretty awesome.
Regular 7 is crazy value for the pre order package. 7 and Pixel Buds Pro for 599 is great. Also the flat screen and matte aluminium is both the better design and the more practical choice.
No doubt! Wish the Pro had a flat screen too...
Never understood the curved display trend. It's my biggest complaint of the Pixel 7 Pro.
@@cereal1862 It's my second biggest complaint of the P6P (only behind the fingerprint sensor).
@@cereal1862 it's been my biggest complaint since I had the Samsung S9 a couple of years ago. Esthetically nice but adds absolutely no value for user
Is the pixel buds pro free pack only in Europe ?
The visual voice dialing is a feature I have been LONGING for, for years now. I really hope this feature gets picked up by all smartphones soon.
Unlikely no other company puts a major effort in audio transcribing. Google has been doing it for decades

Thank you for your detailed review of this phone. This really helped me decide my next phone.
Absolutely love the alliteration at the end of the video. Pre-ordered my 7 Pro last night and this review makes me excited to receive it this weekend. I didn't experience many bugs with my 6 Pro. Hopefully my 7 Pro experience is every bit as smooth.
Lucky u
In my country it ran out of stock in less than an hour 🥲

Such an informative review of the Pixel 7 on things people care about. Really cool theme in this quick review of software solving hardware limitations. Really cool to have a tech expert perspective that is easy to follow for enthusiasts of all levels.
10:54 the bass differences are coming from the model 7 being thinner, so it has a smaller cavity for the bass to form.
Gotta appreciate these Intros!! Incredible!!
The fingerprint reader is *definitely* much improved this year. Way more reliable, speed is good. It doesn't "instantly" capture your fingerprint like a supersonic reader, but it's almost as fast overall if you keep your finger there for a couple more milliseconds.
Much improved over the pixel 6.
i'll wait till S23 comes out
My pixel 6 pro's reader is actually really good now compared to what it used to be, still not the absolute greatest I've ever used but due to software a really solid reader
I agree. Look the video of marks tech
Yeah, I think Marques is basically tapping the fingerprint sensor like it's on fire, rather than pressing on it. Seen others saying it's working great for them.
laughing in pixel 5 until they release pixel 8.
The AI keeps getting better and better. I finally traded in my Pixel 2XL recently. I do miss one thing from that device......the rear finger print reader. It was so much more natural to use. Oh well!!
I still miss the active edge and I haven't used my pixel 2 in 2 years!
I also kept my 2XL until the 6 came out and i love both.
That finger print sensor on the back is such a tiny thing but damn do I miss it
How does anyone use a rear finger print reader? It's so awkward to hit. For me an in-screen is the most natural to use.
@@DonsaiRoadsOfficial Yeah, I have the 6 as well and it's great.

Great review. Just upgraded to a pixel pro after having an s10e for 4 years and I'm loving this phone !
How's been your experience with the Pixel Pro? I have had an S10+ for 4 years as well and while it's still a good phone, l now need to upgrade.
@@teqnohub Did u got the pixel?
I'm also an S10e user, but getting the P7 in 3-4 days
I'm a Pixel fan. My first all Google phone was the Nexus 6, and I've been hooked ever since. The software is really the selling point. And we're to the point where I don't really feel the need to upgrade simply for hardware every year, or every two years. As long as I'm getting software updates I'm happy.
I loved my nexus phone back n the day ❤️
Bro one question. Can Pixels connect to Windows laptop via USB file sharing? Cuz I think Pixel charging wires are different from ports and I desire to keep laptop and phone integrated

Is your phone having any issues? I keep hearing random people talking about overheating but I could be wrong. I hope it’s still running strong
Coming up for a year since I changed over from an iPhone to a Pixel and I definitely have no regrets. The phone has been super reliable with no major problems except for a short period when the battery drained quickly (never to zero) but that seemed to be short-lived. I still believe the smart software that makes my Pixel such a delight to use is way in front of Apple. Love my Pixel 7.

Your thoughts in the beginning of the video about hardware upgrades as opposed to software was spot on.
I grabbed a 6a a month or so ago (they were offering $300 trade on my old 4a5G, so got the 6a for $150). I'm very impressed with the speech-to-text with Tensor chips; its now giving a pretty decent shot at punctuation (like Marques showed in the vid).

You are awesome Marques! Great, very clear and informative review! Love your delivery! Thank you!
I just bought a 7 Pro last week and its been super impressive since I got it. I love the design of the 6 and 7 and the exclusive features it has. the camera, and feel of the phone are amazing and its my first Pixel phone but not first google phone as I owned the Nexus 6P when it came out and that also was really good for its time. Im looking forward to see what google does with its pixel line and I may also invest in a pixel tablet and watch at some point. Id HIGHLY recommend the pixel to anyone looking for a premium phone. it delivers on all levels. might might be a slow charging phone for 2022 standards but the battery in my experience has been very good. I also don't play games on my phone though lol.

Honestly I did not think I wanted to swap phones but the Pixel 7 here in sweden atm is on such a good deal that I might upgrade from my OP 7t Pro that now in the latest month been acting weird. I just needed to rewatch this review to be sure.
Informative video, great content! Keep up the good work! Cheers
I feel a podcast challenge is a good test for the speech to test. Have the pixel recorder app record the podcast, or at least a segment, and see if it gets the conversation 100% with speech to text. Would be interesting to see it in that interview style setting at work!
I had the pixel 3 and used it to transcribe interviews while I was in a news office. Any further improvements would be astounding. I switched because the pixel couldn’t operate in Caribbean heat tho
Im working for media and i already see the recorder as a way not to transcribe interviews anymore woohoo
It may struggle to pick up recorded audio. The frequency of a live human voice is very different from sound coming out of a speaker. Still, that would be very impressive.
Man, you guys just keep making better and better intros - seriously impressive!

iOS 16 intro GOATed
Amazing alliteration at the end! A+
The intro was crazy
Pixel 4a is still doing a very decent job for me. Will see what Pixel 8 has to offer when it comes out next year.
The Pixel 5 was one of my favorite bodies but the phone is seriously lacking in any kind of power.
@@paulregener7016 typing on the pixel 5, (love it) waiting for a pixel phone with similar front design but better internals.
Still rocking my pixel 5a. Waiting for what 7a has to offer.
Think you mean 8a because the A series is a lower tier (as in you may not care for what the flagship series does, therefore it's an option that gives you the best of what you're happy with)
Still rocking my 4a as well. It's honestly good enough, actually has some same software issues as in this video, but I'm ready for an upgrade. Fingers crossed for a good black friday deal or a 7a.
I preordered the Pixel 7 pro despite having an S21+. It came with 10% off, 350$ in google store credit (nearly free pixel watch) and 470$ additionally off for giving them my current phone. Haven't had a Google phone since the 3XL. I'm looking forward to it.
that sounds like an incredible deal although giving them your s21 probably wasn't the play imo
@@Numb_ they're giving me 470$ for it, and it has a gigantic crack on the back. The used market here in Japan is extremely volatile. I'd be lucky to get 250$ out of it, so google exchange is the best option. But yea my wife has a 6 pro, and the photos (especially in zoom) are mountains better than mine, so I look forward to it. Financing phones in Japan is like 48 months with half price down with extreme penalties for bowing out early, but google lets me do 12 interest free payments so I figured I might as well side grade haha
@@frankieinjapan Ah see you left that vital part out lol. Then of course that was an insane deal
your data and usage on the S21+ is more valuable than the 10% and store credit combined. Google thanks your patronage at supplying them with data the the hardware to recycle for future pixel products.
@@simplylearning9347 The S21 goes to a partner company that refurbished and resells it, not google directly. Plus they only accept the phone if it's completely reset, meaning all bits flipped to zero, which I will do before sending it. The conspiracy paranoia doesn't rub off on me. Nice try haha
I currently have the Google pixel 4a. But recently I have had so many issues, that I'm unsure if I'll bother with another Google phone right now. I mean overheating, freezing, restarting, and issues with my camera. This phone looks promising but I think I'll shop around a bit first.
Love my Pixel 7, definitely a big improvement over the 6.
PSA, when playing some games, if you notice fps choppy then disable smooth display then start the game, it should fix the issue.
I don't particularly like google but 4:16 sold me.
I would totally get a Pixel if it had competitive hardware.
Alliteration aside (and awesome), amazing analysis as always. 😀

**like**
You are the best at explaining things and very detailed, even though I couldn't follow you, I was very impressed by your analysis. I just got one of these phones and it's 100x more than I need. The google phtos are beyond anything I have ever seen. My Apple friends always want to see them.
I'm still rocking the 4XL, and man i gotta say the speakers on this thing are literally insane, I'm gonna miss these speakers when upgrading over to the 7 pro
These intro's are always exceeding my expectations wow
As an iPhone user, this is the first Pixel that seems to be a compelling option. The software features and design make it seem really impressive! Great video!
@Garrus Vakarian True, iPhone is still the best in performance.
@Garrus Vakarian if it opens the apps pretty much at the same time and has no lag who cares. Is tik tok gonna scroll faster or is the email going to send faster ?
@Garrus Vakarian upgrade every year or two, not a problem
@Garrus Vakarian because a 3 year iPhone camera is trash, has 60 hz display, battery is shot, slowed down by software to "preserve battery" etc etc.
@Garrus Vakarian is the iPhone 5 3 years old ? Lmaooo
Love your reviews, MKBHD! It's been a long time since that laptop/ad for Intel and Lenovo or whatever it was.
I may be getting my first smartphone soon, and it will probably be a Pixel Pro, just because it's the best at some things and I know I'd use a high-performance, extra-smart smartphone 🙂
I love my P7! Great Video man keep up the great work! 👊🏿
So many many extra points for going out with that alliterative flourish
Great review as always. I'm a huge lover of the Pixel phones. I hope they are around for a while.
Amazing alliteration and, as always, awesome articulation!
Your face at the end while you were trying to hold the laugh in was priceless.
Thank you for information my brother I’m watching you from Ottawa 😄👍🙏
My 7 Pro arrived a few hours ago, and so far I am very impressed. Such a huge upgrade to my old Pixel 4, I thought the camera app had bugged out at first, turns out it was updating in the Play Store, once all updates had been installed, I am yet to encounter any strange bugs which is great
32 bit apps dont work on these phones
I’m about to pull the trigger and buy one. Would you recommend it after using it for a couple weeks now?
@@MrCaptainTea I definitely would
@@MrCaptainTea Would definitely recommend, no issues so far, best phone I've ever owned
I am disappointed 😅 Samsung is the best
I really like Google‘s approach with these phones. The future-oriented features thanks to the tensor chips for a competitive price especially with the Pixel 7 is a really great deal. The mix of great photos enhanced with AI and the rest of the AI stuff is probably one of the highest ranked points on the wish list of the everyday consumer. Great work!

Smooth alliteration at the end there my guy. 👌
Thanks for this excellent video about the Pixel 7 Pro, it has been instrumental in me buying one - especially for the 50mp camera - the photos are good but none of them come out at 50mp - usually 12.5mp with very small file sizes - I contacted the help link in the camera settings, and wonderfully they rang me straight away - an amazing service - the lady explained that the 50mp photos are automatically compressed to 12.5mp when you look at them. They look good on my screen but for printing I think the small file sizes are a real contraint. Does anyone know of a workaround ?
