I've ignored MKBHD since end of 2020 when he said S20 FE was phone of the year. It is a defective phone, not just some units. The touch screen layer was defective and Samsung refused to acknowledge it at all. They told users to basically fuck off. This was when a youtuber should be calling companies out and defending the consumer. He downplayed it in the review and didn't even mention the problem in the year end video. There's no good value in a phone with a touch screen that doesn't fucking work right. If he used it for any amount of time with swype it would be an obvious issue. Even if he didn't personally experience issues, he just didn't do the due diligence even by the end of the year. It was disgusting to witness firsthand. I watched that channel for a good 7-8 years. Someone sent me an MKBHD video, the first one I've seen in literal years, and he's on about the airpods pro 2 somehow being a good idea at concerts in place of hearing protection because of the new adaptive noise cancelation that lower sounds that are too loud. It was insane. Luckily I watched Snazzy labs video instead where they say please do not wear these to concerts in place of hearing protection. Pretty ridiculous that the first video I see in years is just as flawed and stretching for uniqueness as I could have expected.

One major issue I had with the Pixel 6 (and went through three phones) was that when you have the screen set to very low brightness, grays weren't consistent. One phone the entire bottom half of screen was red. The second the right half of the screen was green and the third the left side green. How's the Pixel 7?

It's basically exactly the same meh rigid oled panel, so it'll still potentially have the rainbowing off axis and poor low light performance, however it's probably slightly newer and with slightly updated display drivers. It'll still be one of the weakest aspects of the phone

As someone who recently upgraded from the 3a to the 6a, I really miss the lightness and smallness of the older pixels, the 2 was too small, but past the 3 they were good, ever since the 5 though they've been gargantuan, and my current 6a is super heavy and big, it's the only thing I don't like about it.
