The famous Tesla company, where Elon Musk is CEO, is preparing for the great event of unveiling its insanely-powerful Tesla Phone Pi device, which is expected to happen by next year in April. The phone will be sporting powerful specs that will easily make it a flagship.

After the comparison with the iPhone 14 Pro Max or with the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, we are glad to share the comparison between the Tesla Phone Pi and the Google Pixel 7 Pro that the guys from the ‘Spec World’ YouTube channel made!

The Google Pixel 7 Pro is just around the corner, as the Mountain View-based tech behemoth will release the gadget in less than a week. We have to say right from the start that it will indeed be a tough competitor for Tesla’s future phone – the 50MP rear camera setup, the Google Tensor G2 processor, and the 5000mAh battery speak for themselves. As for the specs of Tesla’s future phone, what we know so far is based on leaks and rumors, which means that the upcoming gadget might prove to have a different set of specs than what you’ll see in this article.

Now, let’s dive into more detail based on the info we have so far:

Tesla Phone Pi has a higher refresh rate

The refresh rate is extremely important nowadays when it comes to smartphones, as they determine how good or bad the image quality is. You need a high refresh rate, especially when it comes to gaming or certain apps, and Tesla Phone Pi is doing better than its competitor in this area.

The future phone of Elon Musk’s company is equipped with a 144Hz for its refresh rate and 1500nits when it comes to brightness. On the other hand, Google Pixel 7 Pro will be capable of a refresh rate of 120Hz and 1200 nits of brightness.

Tesla Phone Pi has a better CPU and GPU

If you’re looking for better performance when it comes to tasks such as gaming or video editing, the Tesla Phone Pi is the device to grab. It’s equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen1 (4nm) chipset, a processing speed of 3.2 GHz, and the Adreno 730 for the GPU. On the other side, the Google Pixel 7 Pro is not doing bad in this area, either, as it will be sporting a Google Tensor Gen2 (4nm) chipset, 3.0GHz for the processing speed, and a Mali G78 MP20 for the GPU.

Tesla Phone Pi has better cameras

Moving on to another crucial aspect of any smartphone nowadays, meaning the cameras, we must say right from the start that the Tesla Phone Pi wins this round as well. The upcoming phone of Elon Musk’s company carries a rear camera setup that consists of a 109MP (f/1.9) Main Wide sensor, two 50MP sensors (the P. Telephoto at f/3.4 and Ultrawide at f/1.8), and the 5MP Macro sensor at f/1.8.

The Google Pixel 7 Pro carries a 108MP Main Wide snapper (f/1.9), a 48MP Telephoto (f/3.5), and a 12MP Ultrawide snapper (f/2.2).

The video recording of the two phones’ rear cameras is the same: up to 8K@30fps.

The selfie camera is clearly in favor of the Tesla Phone Pi: 48MP at f/2.2, compared to only the 12MP (f/2.2) that Google’s flagship carries. The two front cameras can record videos at the same capacity: up to 4K@60fps.

Price: Google Pixel 7 Pro is cheaper

We can expect Google Pixel 7 Pro to cost $99 less than the Tesla Phone Pi. Tesla’s gadget will be priced at $999.

Conclusion

As you can easily conclude for yourself, the Tesla Phone Pi is dominating its opponent in a few key areas, which makes it the winner of the confrontation. Based on 32 factors presented by ‘Spec World’, Tesla’s device won with 24 points, while Google’s Pixel 7 Pro gathered 23 points.

Regardless of which one of the two phones you may choose to buy, you must keep in mind that both of them are amazing. Both are equipped with powerful specs and features, and the choice of which one to add to your collection is ultimately up to you!
