initially worked, and then I added a second smart tv to it, and it totally trash the bed misunderstanding commands and simply doing something unrelated to the command given. Recently, it lost network connection and can no longer connect. Google's online help is perhaps a contradiction, and less than useless, wasting alot of time following procedures that fail, such as simply connecting the device back to Google Home and my home network after a factory reset. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT, because you won't know when it will simply stop working and you'll have next to no support for it. I will never buy another google product ever again.

What has happened to google maps?It's just hopeless. Time and time again it doesn't know where we are or takes an I correct route.

wanted improved and it has delivered as i have experienced no slower movements thus far. The remote works with my pixel phone, so "hey google, find my remote" makes the remote start ringing out a chime which will be so useful. Now the for the main unexpected improvement and that is my oled tv is now so much more colorful then before and that has to be the upgraded hardware. Seriously the improvement is stark. I highly recommend upgrading.

I truly thank you to all TCL team members to helped us with such a wonderful manners once again thank you so much

and their first solution was to send me to one of those dodgy mall repairers. That is who they have partnered with as their authorised repairer. Beyond belief. If your phone goes wrong you will expend hours and hours of your time speaking to morons.

Never again.

I find it hard to rate a phone because I'm comparing a phone to a desktop PC. And I haven't really been through hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of… Read more

cell phones, so I can't compare phone to phone. So in my opinion, a phone that functions, obviously not equivalent to a PC, but functions similar to a PC would receive more positive feedback from me.

The first thing I noted was the heat the phone produces, which is similar to a PC. PCs produce phenomenal heat, so a phone that is producing phenomenal heat as opposed to no heat is a phone, in my opinion, that is functioning better. Of course heat causes problems such as freezing and shutdown. My phone hasn't shut down but it has frozen. In the case of that I just turn the phone off and let it cool down, put it in the shade or find a way to help cool it down just by leaving it. Once I boot it back up again it works fine. the overheating is causing the problem which as I always knew was a problem for a phone that overheats but I've never come across a phone that overheats like this one because I've never really invested in a phone until now.

While I bought this phone refurbished, not brand new, it was relatively cheap, within the $300 range. The phone was marked as a flagship phone, but doesn't have display alt mode, which was disappointing because I wanted to use the phone specifically for display port alt mode. But upon use and process in time, I have found that the display alt mode is not entirely necessary if necessary at all.

The camera is very good, better than any phone I've had. Not saying I've had any good phones, I haven't had any brilliant, high grade, top of the mark phones. This is probably the best phone I've ever owned and the camera functions very well. I bought the phone because I have a visual impairment that has increased so much I am almost blind. So I needed a phone that could facilitate in daily functions such as reading. The phone is integrated with Google Lens which is a brilliant application that can perform OCR to the standard of a $5,000 device. Also the camera is brilliant for taking general photos for selling online.

I have to use talkback which I think is a problem with most phones but overall talkback works at an optimal performance with this phone 95% of the time. Sometimes it glitches out, sometimes it becomes unresponsive and at these times I simply restart the phone by pressing and holding down the power button, the volume up and volume down button for 5 seconds and the phone reboots and restarts everything and works back to normal. It's a minor hiccup, but not a huge hiccup as I can see the problem being much larger and bigger with other phones. There are Google Pixel Pro 8 and 9, I believe. This is generation 7, so it's fairly obsolete. And as far as an obsolete phone goes, I have to say I'm rather satisfied with its functionality. It's very lightweight, very slim and has a very suave appearance which is good. I don't use this phone in public or carry it around much because from experience carrying phones around, carrying phones around usually ends up in damaging them. So it's best just to let the phone remain stationary. It acts as a great router for internet tethering to my desktop PC better than other phones, which is brilliant. During tethering it doesn't overheat. In fact it doesn't heat up at all. The phone is almost dormant during tethering. So I can simply use my PC in compensation for using the phone which is really very good. It also is good for transferring files to and from the PC. I'm writing this review after a month or so of use with this phone. I haven't had it for two to three years, so I'm not writing a mature product review.

But the main reason I bought this phone is because of the integration of display port mode which it doesn't even have so that was disappointing. But also it turns out the integration with Google Lens and the Google Pixel Pro 7 is superior to most phones. So optical character reading which is hard to achieve and also expensive has become very achievable and very inexpensive with this phone. So for this fact alone I am very grateful to have this phone. Which is an aspect that most people would not want the phone for.

Apart from that, the standard send text and make calls is just fine, as it always has been fine with most phones since they were made. Which is really what a phone is for, but as of late, there are a few other reasons to own a phone that a phone couldn't achieve 10 years ago. Happy with this phone, if I have problems with it in the future, I'll simply upgrade.

I don't see how a general civilian can rate hardware and software out of five because we don't know what the hardware is made of or how it's made. Neither do we know what the software, how the software was written. We're just basing our vote on experience which is not really relative to the reality of the composition of the hardware and software. So I just gave it four out of five and five for functionality

loading all my stuff on the phone only to find everything froze and I had no choice but to zero everything and start again.

The phone itself works ok, takes fair photos/video, has some nice useful features like telling it to set a timer. It has been pretty durable. Google Photo edit is ok but not great. Used to have an option to save as opposed to saving a copy so now I waste time deleting the extra image. My previous generations older Samsung could make significantly better audio/video recordings from its mic. If I sing a song with my guitar the recording is shabby. Not much good for a musician. My wife's very old $300 Vivo has far longer battery life and much better preloaded apps. It is years old and still amazes me for what you get for your money.

Certain poorly designed software updates frequently interrupt. Google might have fired their best engineers. One update reset alarm settings and my alarm didn't wake me up. Software updates on other phones have never changed my stored settings until Pixel. Recently when viewing photos a pop-up appears urging me to backup files to their cloud and it can't be closed. There is no close this window option. I have to restart the phone to get rid of it. It is so annoying that I am certain I'll never buy another Google product. I'm on a contract with my provider. One year to go and it is gone.

does not reconnect unless you disconnect / connect it again. Google knows about this issue for years, it has been reported in forums but it was left unanswered. This problem occured several times a week for the last 3 years.

BASIC LAWS OF PHYSICS.

Yet Google and governments allow these to exploit the vulnerable.

I want to wake people to anger in the hope something night change.

I agree with the other experiences here. The wifi performance degrades too quickly. Even after one day. My point goes from 130Mbps down to a measly… Read more

10Mbps. I have 2 wifi points and both can degrade quickly. Only a system reboot (or power down/up) resolves this. Besides this you are forced to use a ethernet cable if possible which should perform much better.

I understand all wifi systems degrade over time but this system issue is atrocious and users should not be having to put up with this with constant restarts. So frustrating. Where are the stability fixes Google? These are rubbish.

purports to have a restitution program. Australian Consumer Law states that consumers are entitled to reasonable life of electronic devices. I have so far had about 40 email exchanges with Google. No email trail. Repeated requests for the same information. Different people responding to emails .. no consistency. No response to request for advice on the potential risk of retaining the device with a severely swollen battery. The retailer has been helpful but say Google refused to provide restitution for the damaged phone. I have been a committed Pixel user. No longer!

Google Home / Google Nest are, without exaggeration, the most unreliable consumer electronics I have encountered. I own at least six different Google… Read more

Home and Nest devices, and when they actually function, it is close to miraculous. Voice recognition is inconsistent, device routing is chaotic, and the system behaves unpredictably. One moment a command triggers on a particular speaker or display, the next moment a completely different unit responds (or fails to respond at all). Switching between devices is erratic, and half the time the system simply refuses to connect or execute basic tasks. Google Home has already been discontinued, and the Google Nest Hub is not an improvement. Based on the direction of the product line, I would not be surprised if Nest is discontinued sooner rather than later. On top of this, the devices are data-harvesting machines that depend on faulty updates, often rendering them temporarily or permanently useless. I have spent serious money on equipment that is now essentially worthless and unwanted on the second-hand market. Google’s priority is not the customer; it is the monetisation of user data for advertising. Reliability and support are afterthoughts. My advice: avoid Google Home and Google Nest products entirely. They are outdated, unreliable, intrusive, and a poor investment.

Google are scum, use standover tactics and censor anything that doesn't fit the agenda – Won't publish reviews they don't like or their paying customers ask to have taken down they will take down. As per the review below if you aren't… Read more

Based on reviews had hopes for this phone. Unfortunately for a flagship phone there are handy functions present in other Android phones which Google… Read more

have removed from Pixel phones. e.g it is not possible to set the priority for wifi calling you are stuck with the default priority sim only meaning wifi calling while overseas will not work. If you are using the Pixel as a mobile hotspot Google have removed the option to even view which devices are connected it will only display the quantity of devices no way to see what they are. Nope wouldn't ever consider a Google phone again.

Tablet and dock order arrived in 4 days in good condition. The price was competitive so happy with this online purchase which was quick to setup. Have yet to try all features.

Very easy to use and manage – Very simple to use and easy to manage. Very convenient and have never experienced any problems when creating a website. Easy to access, the layout is simple and great for managing multiple websites.

Ridiculous warranty process – I'd had my buds for around 2 months and they were working well but then one started to disconnect randomly while in use, and connect randomly when… Read more

not in use and inside the charging case, sometimes causing my podcast app to play when I wasn't listening to it which was annoying. The problem bud would also lose charge at times when in the charging case but would then randomly charge again. In the end I was fed up with the unreliability and contacted Google about a replacement.

The warranty process is ridiculous. I was in an online chat for an hour and a half involving lots of aimless troubleshooting, some of it irrelevant, some I'd already tried and one was inappropriate while the issue isn't actively happening which it wasn't during the chat. The 'Customer Care' person, also didn't read my initial explanation of the issue fully and tried to fix a charging issue with the charging case, which was never a problem in the first place and then tried to finish the chat when the case was shown to be charging correctly. Eventually I was offered a replacement under warranty but the whole process has put me off every buying a Google product again. It shouldn't be anywhere near this hard!

Google, you are an enormous company. You can and should do a lot better than this!
