Samsung fanboys incoming.
Go watch Geekerwan video about smartphone. This list is not a good list
The 7 is a much better value than the 7 pro
Congratulations to the Pixel 7 Pro.
Never thought the S22 Ultra would be defeated on the reader's choice section. Google really redeemed themselves with the 7 series 👑
Absolutely love my pixel 7 pro 🔥. Thanks . 🍻😎
Neither.
Note 9 is still the ultimate Android phone. The only contender is Sony phones but those aren't available in most countries.
I am watching this on a pixel 7 pro! I came from a OnePlus Nord and the upgrade has been phenomenal 🔥
pixel is the most unreliable phone with tonns of bugs and biuld quality issues. Which is more it cannot cope with games and heavy load.
The only thing that pixel has on the s22u is the price
LOL how'd I know it'd be the Pixel? Coming from the same channel that did an entire video to fix all the "common" problems by the phone of the year. Awesome!
100 percent agree
Samsung galaxy fold 4 & s22 ultra are best of their category
I hate the curved screen and way too large, we want a pro that is the size of the standard and make the larger an XL or something
S22 ultra is still the best phone that was released earlier than pixel and iPhone. 4 year major upgrade, excellent camera, usability of Spen, etc.
Like for "real" that is a fortune 😂
Great choice
Happy to hear it and you made my day cause I wrote this comment with the one and only pixel 7 PRO
How is $900 for a smartphone not a fortune?
Motorola edge 30 ultra should have been here. Tensor G2-no confidence on long term.
A good smartphone is not just hardware, but it's also not just software, it's a mix of the 2, like 60% hardware 40% software.
The problem is that at Google, it's 30% hardware and 70% software, even Apple, which I don't really like, doesn't allow itself to do that.
And Apple's biggest selling point is its software.
Today, YouTubers want us to believe that Google's software is worth $500 – $600 a piece.
I'm not getting on this bandwagon 🚆.
The Pixel 7 Pro has worse hardware than an S21 Ultra or an iPhone 12 Pro Max (apart from 120 hertz for the 12 pro Max) released 2 years ago, which today is around $600 new for the S21 Ultra which will have almost as many updates as the Pixel 7 Pro, and the 12 Pro is easily around $750 – $800 new with more updates than the Pixel 7 Pro released 2 years after it.
Tell me seriously, what and how this Pixel 7 Pro is such a good deal 🤔
Best phone pixel pro. Really good phone one plus 10 pro.
I fully agree with pixel being best this year. Google has done something actually GREAT with this phone. Not only is it great, but the price is the same which is nuts.
I disagree with your survey, I like the Samsung s22 ultra
I disagree with pixel 7 pro, purely battery wise
Just got the Pixel 7 Pro and it's Amazing!
Funny pixel shows heating issue on screen when its too hot 🤣🤣
Seriously? If someone said Pixel 7 is the best phone I would think that's acceptable, as it really is perfect for the price and an amazing phone obviously. But the 7 pro is overpriced. Also, Samsung phones nowadays are objectively better than any other android devices, even the pixels. They even provide longer software support and damn the S22 ultra has almost everything better than the pixel 7 pro.
ThanksMuch!
For 900 I'd want near peer gaming performance. The tensor lacks this.
Why this channel ded ?
Aah yes, $900 isn't a fortune to spend on a smartphone which essentially makes calls and browses the internet.
Remember to:
– Rest
– Drink atleast 1liter water
– eat
– be happy
– Pray to god for a great life
– exercise and study
– I know we can be succesful:)
😂, just get the Motorola edge 30 ultra
Seriously! Is just $899 (=$900) not a fortune to spend on a smartphone? Merry Xmas and a happy New Year to you.🙂
Agreed that they voted the Google Pixel 7 pro to be the best
Interesting how s22ultra got beaten out by pixel even though
S22 ultra has more versatile cameras– ( iphone 14 pro beats out both pixel and samsung in overall still both pixel and s22 are in toe to toe)
better soc than g2
better battery life( battery tests) and charging speed
S pen, Features and stuffs — good lock thingy
Even 1 more os update (4yr os + 5 yr secu)
Yea pixel beats out samsung over ui smoothness and animations( which is quite subjective)
Faster updates
Better haptics and videography
Lets see how things are with others tech youtubers ( particularly from MKBHD)
Great video! Short and sweet!!!
Looks like android authority are sponsored by Google.
Pixels are crap, tried my first one from the black Friday sale and they had so much issues from previous generations
Disappointed… Very bad.. No battery backup… Heating issues.. Pixel 7 pro😂 unbelievable 🙄
Wtf choice 🤮
These reviewers always like Pixel. They conned me a couple of times and both times the phones were severely flawed. As far as price and saving cash, Samsung gives incredible trade ins. I paid like $200 for the S22 Ultra. Can’t beat that.
I find it funny the fact that you don't consider 900$ a bunch of money
I would pay more to get anything from some other brand than buying a stupid samsung or garbage google device.
Watched it 20secs after posted gang
Zenphone 9
