Google Pixel 7 Pro: New flagship impresses in DxOMark camera and display tests

There may be questions about the Pixel 7 Pro's power consumption under certain circumstances. However, it seems that Google has made strides with the display it has included in its flagship smartphone from last year's Pixel 6 Pro. While we are yet to publish our Pixel 7 Pro review, DxOMark has analysed the smartphone in numerous areas, including its display.

For context, leaks from pre-release units suggested that Google has equipped the Pixel 7 Pro with the Samsung S6E3HC4, a newer display panel than the one found in the Pixel 6 Pro. Early tests emphasise this, with the Pixel 7 Pro capable of significantly higher peak brightness figures than its predecessor. In DxOMark's view, the Pixel 7 Pro's display is only second to the iPhone 14 Pro Max and is a huge upgrade from the Pixel 6 Pro. In short, the Pixel 7 Pro has a colour-accurate and bright display, as well as good software tunings to optimise brightness for low-light conditions and when viewing HDR10 content.
