Pixel 7 Pro

Reliable flagship with questionable battery life.

The 7 Pro balances performance and battery, especially with crDroid.

The camera stack and Tensor-only optimizations are solid.

The jump from a Galaxy A32 5G was dramatic. The Tensor G2 keeps the phone responsive, especially with 12 GB of RAM.

Battery life wavers when I needed Play Integrity. However, the camera quality more than compensates, making it one of my favorite phones.

My volume rocker fell off, thoguh I was able to use an app for displaying a virtual volume rocker. Despite this quirk and the shattered back glass, I seriously can't complain about the experience.
