The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro are Google's latest and greatest smartphones, and they're not just separated by the number of supported features and the price tags: they also have different screen sizes. The Pixel lineup of smartphones hasn't gotten off on the right foot, but there's immense potential for the new devices. Since Google designs both the Pixel hardware and Android software for the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, they have an opportunity to provide deep optimization and integration with the company's products and services.

For the most part, the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro retain the same design as last generation's Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro. The main differences between the two generations' designs are the colors and the camera bar. Many past generations of Pixel smartphones were characterized by bright, flashy colors and unique designs. With the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, this is still true in reference to the camera bar. While other smartphones utilize a camera bump to house larger sensors, the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro use a camera bar that extends across the width of the device. However, unlike past Pixels, the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro have familiar colorways and a single-tone design.

Smartphone manufacturers take different measures to distinguish their base and premium models, and Google is no exception. For example, Apple offers multiple sizes of both the base iPhone 14 and the premium iPhone 14 Pro. That means prospective buyers can choose either model and do not have to consider screen size. However, Google only offers one size for both the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro. Though there has been an industry shift to larger phones in recent years, not everyone has the same preference for screen size. To choose the right Pixel 7 model, it's important to know the different screen sizes available.

Pixel 7 & 7 Pro Screen Sizes And Display Features

Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro

The Pixel 7 has a 6.3-inch display, the smaller of the two models in this year's lineup. It is a standard FHD+ display with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 and 416 pixels per inch (ppi). The Pixel 7 has an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display panel, meaning it can turn off the display at the pixel level. This makes for deeper blacks and more immersive colors, as well as better battery life for the device overall. It's rated for up to 1000 nits of brightness during HDR use and can go all the way up to 1400 nits of peak brightness. Since the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro are only offered in one size each, people who prefer a smaller form factor will have to pick the Pixel 7.

The Pixel 7 Pro is the larger of the two devices, and it packs a 6.7-inch display. It has a better QHD+ display with a resolution of 1440 x 3120 and 512 ppi. A notable difference from the Pixel 7 is that the Pixel 7 Pro has an LTPO OLED display panel, providing variable refresh rate. The screen can refresh at up to 120 Hz when needed, or slow down to 60 Hz when unmoving content is on the screen. It has the same 1000 nits of brightness during HDR use but can hit a higher peak brightness of 1500 nits. There are many differences that distinguish the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, but a major consideration for prospective buyers is the screen sizes of both smartphones.
