Undercuts and out-performs the competition

Google Pixel 7 Pro

The Google Pixel 7 Pro is the very best camera phone out now at its price. Why? Because for £849/$899, Google loads the phone up with a mighty camera mix, complete with a powerful periscope camera and an autofocusing ultra-wide, not to mention the same 50MP main camera you get on the Pixel 7. Google's photography software is also incredibly clever both in the camera app and when you come to edit your photos, and video shot on it looks stupendous, too.

Of course, there's more to a smartphone than just its camera, and the Pixel 7 Pro needs to be a hardy, good-looking phone with a great screen and long-lasting battery life. After all, it has to compete with the iPhone 14, Honor Magic 4 Pro and Samsung Galaxy S22, which all cost around the same.

The 7 Pro also has competition from its predecessor, the Pixel 6 Pro. It's a very similar phone in many respects: it has the same main camera, similar power, design and battery life, and the 6 Pro's price has dropped too since the 7 Pro launched.

But with an updated periscope camera, an ultra-wide camera with autofocus and macro capture, as well as Google's latest camera software, is the 7 Pro the obvious choice for Android users who want the best camera phone under £1,000/$1,000?

Design and screen

We tested the Google Pixel 7 Pro in its Hazel finish and, in a two-week period, were asked about it three times by strangers whose eye it caught. It's a large, elegant phone with a curved front and back that tapers into the polished metal frame, and it's striking. Side by side with the Pixel 6 Pro, the 7 Pro sports similar dimensions and weighs nearly the same - just 2g heavier at 212g. It also has the same 6.7-inch screen size, and the visor-style camera bump is back, too, looking more elegant on the Pro than on the smaller Pixel 7.
