The Google Pixel 7 isn't much more expensive than the GooglePixel 7a, but is the camera a lot better? We found out in our extensive, in-depth test.
There is only a $100 difference in price between the Google Pixel 7 and the new Google Pixel 7a, so if you’re looking at one, it makes sense to look at the other, too.
When you dig more into the specification, other differences emerge. The Pixel 7 has larger 1.2nm pixels compared to the Pixel 7a’s 0.8nm pixel width, the aperture is f/1.89 on the Pixel 7a compared to the f/1.85 on the Pixel 7, and the sensor itself is 1/1.73 inches on the Pixel 7a, while the Pixel 7 has a 1/1.31-inch sensor. The Pixel 7a also saves photos by default at a higher pixel count than the Pixel 7.
The first photo shows the Pixel 7a delivering some deeper colors, but this is not a trend, as sometimes the Pixel 7 does the same. The level of detail, which is impressive, is identical in both — right down to the tread pattern on the Triumph Stag’s tires. White balance and contrast vary slightly between them, with the Pixel 7 improving over the 7a, but it’s such a small difference it’s hard to say one is better than the other.
There’s so much more of the surroundings in the Pixel 7a’s photo, but the camera doesn’t distort the image too much, so it does appear fairly natural. The Pixel 7’s photo avoids fish-eye distortion but at the expense of an epic, wide-angle view. I prefer the Pixel 7a’s exposure and the brightness of the image in general, although the Pixel 7 does make the sky a little more attractive.
The second photo is all about the white balance, which has been a theme running throughout the test, as both treat the color of the car slightly differently. Personally, I look at the Pixel 7’s photo and prefer it, but there is more of a blue tint to the white than in the Pixel 7a’s photo, and arguably, it’s more true to life due to this. Detail is no different, as is the depth of field created, and one photo is not technically better than the other.Pixel 7a vs.
