Google Pixel 7 Pro 5G, 256GB, Obsidian - Unlocked (Renewed)

Ordered a "Good" quality one, expecting maybe a few scratches on the back. Lo-and-behold it's in absolutely PRISTINE condition. I was using a Nord N10 previously and I've gotta say, swapping to a 1440p OLED screen is a WORLD of a difference in the general viewing quality. The battery is absolutely stellar as well, took it to work at 50%, played music with bluetooth through the day, by the time I got home it was at 17%. 33% battery usage for non stop streaming music and intermittent usage across the span of 7 hours is pretty damn impressive. I've only used budget phones in the past, so the camera quality was a MASSIVE upgrade compared to what I've been accustomed too as well. I cant say how it compares to devices like current year iphones or samsungs, but there's no way its very far behind either one at all. At this price point (Mine was $180), I really do not think it's possible to get an android device that has this level of quality. This is a must have for people on a budget.

Pretty ironic that only a Google phone can be totally deGoogled. Ha. My Pixel 7 Pro arrived fast, in excellent condition and completely unlocked. I was able to install GrapheneOS without a hitch and it works great. I've been wanting one of these for a while. Now, I'm almost totally degoogled. If you're getting one of these to run GraphenOS, do it. It feels so freeing and you can do everything and more that you could on any other normie phone. Graphene comes with the option to run Google Play sandboxed, so you can still run pretty much any app and get push notifications without needing a Google account or giving it hardly any permissions. I get nearly everything I need on F-Droid though. The camera really is awesome. The camera app that comes with GrapheneOS works great, but the only Google app I use is their Pixel camera app that I downloaded through Aurora store because it has some really neat timelapse and night features that can take full advantage of the camera. It took a few tries reconnecting on Aurora to allow me to load it, but eventually it connected through a Russian server and works perfect. It's all in English and the same version, it just installed through a different server since apparently they do some type of check and only allow the camera app to be downloaded on Pixel phones. Be sure to update the phone several times before installing GrapheneOS. It had Android 13 when I received it, but after running all the updates, its up to version 15 now. Battery life has been excellent, so far. I think a large part of that is just because it doesn't have Google constantly running stuff in the background. This is the best phone and OS I've ever had. It does suck that there's no SD card slot or headphone jack, but with how cheap storage is and how simple it is to transfer stuff, its not really a big deal. The 5x optical zoom camera makes up for it. The only complaint I have is it showed a charging brick in the description photos and when I asked if it was included, the automatic AI thing told me it was. I did not receive a charging brick, any accessories or literature, only a cheap 2.0 USB-A to USB-C cable not good for transferring data. (Pic is the city of Destin taken from the beach 20 miles away using 5x zoom and long night time exposure).

0/10 would not recommend. Received the phone in decent condition, it had a few scratches on the screen, and marks on the camera housing, but was overall reasonable considering i selected "Excellent." My first issue was the battery life, it was about 4 hours of screen time at medium brightness, and less on high brightness. it would drain itself really fast when not on, and even without a bunch of background apps. The charging port was loose from the start, and recently even new cables won't stay in, and it doesn't work for data transfer. It frequently overheats and shuts down, and can even shut down when it's too cold. This should never happen from normal use. Just recently, the phone developed a black splotch and some lines on the bottom of the screen, and was getting false inputs. The phone is in a strong case, and has a screen protector, it isn't damaged or cracked anywhere, but this happened. The splotch of black has grown, and now the screen is unusable. Customer service won't do anything about it, and it costs more to repair than replace. I wouldn't buy again and wouldn't recommend you do either! I have never had a phone this bad, even my $100 motorola has been better

I had purchased a Samsung when my older pixel 6 died, and it was just a bad phone. So I knew I wanted to upgrade, but I don't need all of the sophistication of the latest models. So I felt like I was splurging moving up to the 7 pro. And honestly, it is a much greater phone than the six was. What I like most about it is it's Rock, solid stability and reliability, just like the six was. No glitches, no unexpected behavior, just a really really solid Android experience. And for business reasons, that's what's important to me. I don't think I'll ever be able to say I love a phone or you, but I really do like this phone!

I got this device as a training device for my job, because my skills at diagnosing and tutoring for android devices have been lacking. This device was advertised as carrier unlocked. What I received is not. The system is not allowing me to check for further details due to how it was programmed by Google. I do not want to get a more in depth check because that is not my intended use case, but it is indicated by the fact that the device will not allow me to OEM unlock it within the developer settings. For my purposes, it is far more than sufficient and passable as the operating system proper is in full working order, and the device is cosmetically unblemished. I should also note that I am not the only one who has received a carrier locked device, I’ve noticed a couple other reviewers have as well. Moving on to a much more positive note, the device’s hardware is excellent. The display is excellent and gets considerably bright, the battery life is excellent even without the adaptive battery life feature fully operational, and it is a superb value for the cost to boot. The cameras are very good, and this is coming from a hobbyist photographer who uses a DSLR and iPhone 12 Pro. The singular flaw that I have noticed is the carrier lock. Other than that, it is an incredible device, especially for the price point. But that flaw is typically a dealbreaker whose potentiality should be known about, it just did not particularly matter in my case. Edit (Jan. 5, 2025): Found that the device I received seems to be carrier locked to Verizon. Verizon-made apps were buried within the hidden system apps, and strangely aren’t active or visible unless I go out of my way to look for them. Thought I’d add this in case it helps anyone.

The five stars are for the condition of the renewed phone I received, and for how happy it will make me until the updates stop. The cost per month for a dream phone until then is low, but I should have bought an 8 instead. I was thinking of open source as some sort of magic wrapper that would let me keep using the apps and hardware features I have, instead of the reality of no Play Store. Since I dual boot Linux with Windows, I should have expected that. I read about the 7's heating issues too late. Not a gamer, I stay in Extreme Battery saver, with 71 apps greenlit, and 139 suspended, their icons grayed out until I temporarily wake one up with one extra click, when needed, use the Thermal Monitor app by Rollerbush, and run cool enough. I don't miss not running full out, because everything looks and responds great. After I have to buy something else, open source operating system with a browser that runs web apps would make this 7 a nice thing to have around the house. original review follows: Five Stars I have a Pixel at last! Pixel 7 Pro, 5G, US Version, 256GB, Obsidian - Unlocked (Renewed). Since I think I will be able to switch it to open source when Google stops my updates October 2027, this might be one of my best purchases ever. Anyone who doesn’t want to switch over then should spend another hundred dollars for an 8 Pro to get two extra years of updates. Mine was from The Phone Guys, and it was mint! - scratch-free. 7 is too old for built-in battery health in settings, so I downloaded AccuBattery, paid $3.99 to make it pro, and left it running. Right off the bat it estimated the capacity at 5,000 mAh, which is 100%. The accuracy of that estimate increases over time. The app help pages said to charge up from below 15% to 100% to calibrate, so I had some running down to do, because it arrived 92% charged. The AccuBattery report after charging from 14% to 100% was good enough (92% of capacity, and they say wait 5 cycles for a more accurate take) to make me think I got a good battery. If the phone, especially the battery, doesn’t hold up, I will amend this review. If it holds up, and the conversion to open source October 2027 turns out OK, I’ll be in the market for a battery replacement instead of a new phone in three or four or … years.

I recently made the leap from a Pixel 4a to a refurbished Google Pixel 7 Pro, and the difference has been nothing short of remarkable. After a week of use, I can confidently say that this was an upgrade well worth the investment. Having experienced dwindling battery life with my Pixel 4a, I was initially hesitant about the transition. However, my concerns were quickly alleviated when I discovered the astonishing battery life of the Google Pixel 7 Pro. The refurbished device not only looks and performs like new but also boasts an impressive battery that keeps up with my demanding usage throughout the day. The transition from my old phone to the Pixel 7 Pro was seamless, thanks to the user-friendly setup process. Within minutes, I had all my apps, data, and settings transferred, and I was ready to explore the enhanced features of my new device. The shipping experience via FedEx was prompt, and the packaging was secure, ensuring that the refurbished phone arrived in pristine condition. It's clear that the refurbishment process was thorough, as I couldn't find a single flaw or sign of wear on the device. What truly sets this refurbished Pixel 7 Pro apart is the significant cost savings. Coming from a Pixel 4a, I was delighted to enjoy the latest technology at almost half the cost of the manufacturer's suggested retail price. This has been a game-changer for me, providing exceptional value for the money. In summary, my journey from the Pixel 4a to the refurbished Google Pixel 7 Pro has been a joyous one. The battery life is outstanding, the device looks and feels like new, and the cost savings are substantial. If you're contemplating an upgrade or considering a refurbished phone, this Pixel 7 Pro is a fantastic choice. I'm beyond pleased with my purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a premium smartphone experience without the premium price tag.

Performance is fast and smooth for all everyday tasks, from browsing to apps and media use. There were no visible scuffs or scratches at all, not even minor ones, which really exceeded my expectations for a refurbished product. The phone looks and feels premium in every way. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase, especially considering the reasonable price for such a powerful and well-maintained device.

Excelente opción si quieres ahorrarte un buen dinero en un excelente celular, tiene un excelente rendimiento para el uso diario, redes sociales, juegos ligeros y medianamente demandantes. Los puntos más fuertes del equipo son sus impresionantes cámaras, el tele objetivo 5X es una maravilla, fotografía 10 de 10 y video 8.5 a 9. Envío excelente venía en un solo día me llegó y el producto impecable.

Works great and good value. Much better than the same model I previously tried from the Mart of Wal that failed just before warranty then was an absolute NIGHTMARE dealing with their customer 'service'. So far this one seems like a brand new phone.

El teléfono está muy padre y el rendimiento es muy bueno, recomiendo la compra 100%

product good as received and as expected. Will leave review in a year
