As you may know, one of the advantages that the Pro variant has over the standard model is a larger screen size and things are no different for the Pixel 7 Pro. This particular model is equipped with a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED that has native QHD+ (3129 x 1440) resolution and a 120Hz variable refresh rate. On the other hand, the standard Pixel 7 features a 6.3-inch Full HD+ OLED display with a variable refresh rate that maxes out at 90Hz. The screens and the back area of both IP68-rated 5G devices are protected by the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus. The Pixel 7.

The company also provided the Pixel 7 Pro with more LPDDR5 RAM at 12GB as opposed to 8GB on the vanilla Pixel 7. Pre-installed with Android 13, both phones feature the same 50MP PD Quad Bayer main camera that also has an f/1.85 lens, laser autofocus, and both optical & electronic image stabilization. They also have a 12MP f/2.2 ultrawide camera but the version on Pixel 7 Pro has been enhanced with an autofocus feature.

Both devices rely on the same 10.8MP f/2.2 fixed focus camera for selfie duties. The Pixel 7 Pro also has the upper hand when it comes to battery capacity with 5000mAh versus the 4355mAh battery on the standard Pixel 7. Charging-wise, they can support power ratings of up to 23W and 21W, respectively for both wired and wireless charging. The Pixel 7 Series alongside the new Pixel Watch.

Hence, if you really wanted any of these phones so bad, you may have to reach out to your favourite parallel importer or get them directly from official Pixel markets.
