Why you can trust Pocket-lint
(Pocket-lint) – Google is expected to announce the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro alongside the Pixel Watch during an event on 6 October, though the company has already teased the devices and released some details.
For the details we don’t know, rumours have filled in the blanks. We’ve covered off how the Google Pixel 7 Pro and Pixel 7 are expected to compare to each other in a separate feature, but here we are looking at how the Pixel 7 Pro is expected to compare to the Pixel 6 Pro.
Should you upgrade and what will the differences be if you’re choosing between the Pixel 7 Pro and Pixel 6 Pro? Price
Rumour has it the Google Pixel 7 Pro will start at the same price as the Pixel 6 Pro started at in the US – meaning $899. It is not clear if this will be the case for all countries, but for now, it looks like the Pixel 7 Pro won’t be more expensive than its predecessor.
POCKET-LINT VIDEO OF THE DAY
It is likely the Pixel 6 Pro will come down in price with the launch of the Pixel 7 Pro, if you can get hold of it, but until the new model launches, we don’t know what this will be. It’s around £100 cheaper currently in the UK.

The Google Pixel 7 Pro is expected to share similar design traits to its predecessor, including the prominent camera housing that spans the width of the rear, though there will be some refinements. Based on the teasers from Google, the Pixel 7 Pro won’t have a two-tone rear like the Pixel 6 Pro and the camera housing will be metallic instead of glass, which will see the lenses stand out more.
From the front though, the Pixel 7 Pro is expected to look very similar to the Pixel 6 Pro with a slightly curved display and a punch hole camera at the top in the centre. An under-display fingerprint sensor is expected and it looks like the Pixel 7 Pro will measure around the same as its predecessor, possibly fractionally smaller in height but larger in width.
