    Seems no matter the phone these days, i hear similar issues. Overheating, or getting hot or warm. I'm wondering if it's the high refresh rate. All phones get warm during heavy use. This is why I would never pay over 500 for a phone. Even the higher end phones. I usually wait until they're a year old, even 2. Then search for a new or open box. There's no cell phone worth 900 or more. Not these days. Too much new tech out there for way less.

      You have a point. It really depends on how much you value your phone and what you use it for though.

    Great video. I have been using my pixel 7 pro for several months now and luckily I have not had all this issues. Maybe I am not a heavy user but my experience has been pleasing so far. The only problem I’ve had is battery life that is pretty much less than my 14 pro max.

      Thanks for the sub!!! The Pixel Fold has a similar Tensor G2 chip and I'd personally go towards the Z Fold 5 (if you're set on a foldable) for the 8 Gen 2 and better battery life. But keep in mind the cover screen won't be as wide and not everyone likes OneUI.
      Best of luck!

    Definitely some strange bugs. I've had the 7 pro from release, no overheating messages and I do much the same such as mounting my device on the dash and use it for navigation.
    The recent apps bug I've seen when I used nova launcher. I swapped back to pixel launcher and it went away so odd it stuck around for you.
    Know it's extreme but I'd maybe suggest a factory reset to resolve the issues you're seeing.
    Overall solid review and shame you've had so many issues.

    @ajwalker4416 3 месяца назад

    Brother, great review. I'm a Pixel user and like the "vanilla" Android experience. I really don't want/need all the things other Android makers call "enhancements." That said, my next phone is NOT going to be a Pixel. The overheating issue really bugs me, especially in the summer. I'm looking at Samsung or Motorola. I may go with Motorola for the more "vanilla" Android experience but Samsung has the Always On Display. But the bottom line, as much as I like vanilla Android, the shortcomings of the Pixel devices are driving me back to Moto or Samsung.

    • @johnstech7
      @johnstech7  3 месяца назад +1

      Thank you sir! I'm not too up to date on Motorola's offerings anymore since they were bought by Lenovo a few years back (still have my 2013 Moto X). Hopefully you have better luck with them but honestly you might be better off getting a Samsung device because they "just work" even with all of the bloated software.

    • @ajwalker4416
      @ajwalker4416 3 месяца назад

      @@johnstech7 Yes, I have come to that same conclusion. The big difference for me was Samsung offering Always on Display (AOD) that Motorola does not. That's the only feature I really don't want to lose when moving away from Pixel (along with NFC). So it looks like Samsung is my next device.

    I got it thinking cause its a simple phone battery would be great.. no glitchy mess going on or overheating.. but shacking my head. It cost to much to deal with all that. I wish i would of waited and got my Sony Xperia iv instead.. when i seen it for 750.oo i should of jumped on it . I wasnt sure if it was us version or not so i jumped on the Google pixel 7pro. Its bad.. unless they can seen updates to tighten up these problems.

      About the Pixel 7 pro. I have both sims in mine. For one reason only. Well for two actually. Only the Pixel and iPhone handle visual Voicemail well with two sims. But the killer reason for using the Pixel over the S23U. Is spam detection and call screening. Otherwise I'd definitely give the win to the s23u followed by the iPhone (if you like iOS).

    • @johnstech7
      @johnstech7  9 месяцев назад +1

    3:26 this is the reason i sold my Pixel 6 Pro..
    In the middle of the day and in the middle of an unknown city i was visiting, it decided to forcefully turn on the dark mode while i was driving... With the curved screen reflection and the forced dark mode i couldn't see anything and i almost missed my exit on the highway. This was back in march when the outside temperature was around 20-25C.
    This happened two more times before i had enough and decided to sell the phone. I'm a bit disappointed to hear that the Pixel 7 Pro also has this problem as well....
