Google Pixel 7 Pro 5G, US Version, 512GB, Obsidian - Unlocked (Renewed)

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).

The phone works great and looks very clean for a renewed device. Camera quality is excellent, just as expected from a Pixel, and overall performance is smooth. My only real concern is that the phone tends to heat up a bit quickly during use, which was slightly worrying. Aside from that issue, I’m satisfied with the purchase and would recommend it.

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.

Buying a renewed product is a hit-or-miss in my experience, but this was by far the best experience I have had with purchasing a renewed product. This phone goes for roughly $900 in my area, and buying a refurbished version of this phone saved me around $500. So far, I have had a positive experience using this as a daily driver. This phone did not ship in an OEM enclosure, which I expected. I did, however, expect a charging block, which did not come with my phone. No big deal, though, because they did ship a data-capable USB-C cord with my phone. The phone was wrapped with multiple layers of bubble wrap and was padded with paper. Everything has worked properly from what I used, all the way from the fingerprint sensor to the NFC reader. There was a smudge on the screen when I opened the package, but I was able to buff it out with a microfiber cloth. No visible scratches exist on the screen or outside of the phone. Other than that, this is a solid phone to have. It has already beat my old iPhone 12 Pro in regards to hardware and battery life, and I will not be looking back at Apple products anymore. The phone is fast, responsive, and a great size for someone with relatively big hands. One great feature that made this phone stand out compared to other phones like Samsung is that the bootloader is easily unlockable, allowing me to flash a custom ROm and root my phone which gives me unrestricted control over the operating system.

Perfect phone. Excellent new like with no issues. Used as a tradein with Xfinity. I spent $200 on phone and received a $830 credit for a latest model phone. Pixel makes a VERY GOOD phone. I will definitely buy again. Pixel is as good as any from the other 2 guys. I luv Pixel!!!

Phone came in nearly perfect condition, barely the smallest of micro scratches on the back glass. Other then that, absolutely perfect

no scratches no wear. its like i got a new phone for such a great price. and this phone is such a great phone. takes amazing pics. love this purchase.

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 llegó en perfectas condiciones, obviamente llegó en una caja cualquiera y con un cable usb chino, pero el teléfono está muy bien, sin detalles y viene una pegatina indicando las pruebas que corrieron en el dispositivo

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

Muy bien teléfono, roma fotos muy buenas con su teleobjetivo, suplente normal, y gran angular, y selfies de muy buena calidad y resolución. El procesador es rápido sin ser un súper bólido pero si no juegas en el teléfono para todas las tareas tiene muy buena respuesta y agilidad en abrir y cerrar aplicaciones. El teléfono que compre es renovado en excelentes condiciones y solo traía un ligero y minúsculo rayoncito en en la parte baja de la pantalla que solo poniéndolo a contra luz y observando con mucho detalle se alcanza apenas a apreciar. La batería tiene muy buena duración, con actividad durante todo el día con tareas cotidianas como Whatsapp, facebook, abrir archivos de excel, Word, PDF, en iar correos, tomar fotos y videos, te alcanza con unas 6 a 7 hrs de pantalla. La verdad estoy muy contento con el teléfono y volvería a comprar otro teléfono renovado de Amazon.
