What did you guys get?

I ordered the regular Pixel 7 - lemongrass. Wanted the pro. But I can't handle big phones.

Can't wait for this one to arrive. It says delivery in 17th Oct

One thing about this year compared to other years is no freebies- other than. $100 store credit for next purchase for Canadians.

I did buy the iPhone 14 pro on launch day and returned it after 2 weeks. Just wanted to see Pixel 7 and then decide.

I got the regular in obsidian. I ordered from Fi - $100 off plus $100 back for my 4a5G. Got a Pixel Watch in Obsidian as well.

I still need to order Pixel Buds (I had Jabra buds that failed me a second time in 2 years).

7 Pro, 512, Hazel. Not a fan of the gold trim but preferred this color to the others.

$600 for my 512 6 Pro, $200 store credit (liking the tablet) and 32 bucks in Google One credits.

Still not sure as i really love my 6 Pro but curious how the refinements will effect heat and battery life even if only a tad.

I couldn't pass up on this deal. I just got an email to trade in my Pixel 4a worth $300 trade in and an additional $200 Google Store credit which I will use to buy the Pixel Buds Pro (FREE).

I preordered the Pixel 7 Pro. So for $599 I get a Pixel 7 Pro Hazel and a pair of Pixel Buds Pro. :p

I need to see real life usage reviews plus money is looking funny for me us but apparently you get 450 dollars toward p7 if you trade in p6 so I think I might get it IF the modem is better

In Canada we don't get that much of a deal. For my Pixel 6 the trade in value is only CAD 290 (USD 210). So i ended up not trading. We get a $100 store credit

With so many people trading in the Pixel 6, I wonder whether longer OS support even matters. 😂 What’s the point of longer software support when most of your customers are upgrading on a yearly basis?

I now this might sound dumb or trivial but I kept my P6 and parted with my P4a instead. I just love the Kinda Coral combo and it’s a bigger slab vs the P4a. It also has a more premium feel vs the P4a. The P4a is a light plastic phone that creaks and pops when you use it. The P6 has a glass back and just feels stronger.

I didn’t check trade in prices for the 6 but I nearly got most of my money back for a 3 year old phone. Which is why I used the P4a.

P6 gets $440 trade in, P6P gets $480 and that's and for the 128 GB.
There are some upgrades from the P6 to the P7 but 8t isn't a lot. Better camera overall and front cam is 10.1 MP from 8 MP. But I didn't have a P6 so coming from the 4a, I get a big upgrade. My 4a didn't creek and make noise lol. But I've had a case on it then whole time.

Trading in my 6 Pro for an Obsidian 7 Pro. Hoping that the cellular issues are resolved with the new modem.

7 pro 128 GB in snow.

I just hope 128GB is enough. I plan to use google photos so hoping that won't affect my photo cloud storage. I don't expect to download all the apps I have on my iphone.

I have an s22 plus and am waiting for Black Friday here in the USA as typically that is when best discounts are offered. I am deciding if I want to trade it in for a Pixel 7 pro or wait for s23. Hard to decide. 8 Gen 2 is supposed to be a pretty big upgrade from the 8 Gen 1 and most reports say the Tensor 2 is not a big upgrade from Tensor 1. Would be nice to hear people's experience with performance in the new Pixel and software reliability.

I had a few Pixels over the years and the last one I had was right before the Tensor and the software was a mess. I love pure Android though so I am willing to give Google another shot if they got things worked out now.

I wasn’t planning on buying a Pixel 7, but the fact that Google gave me $250 for a Pixel 3 (which I paid $75 for several months ago) made this a no brainer.

I’m curious but worried about the fingerprint scanner. I owned 2 different 6’s and a 6a and all 3 just sucked.
