Yes, its normal.

It gets even hotter when you are doing rapid charging. That's why Adaptive Battery and Adaptive Charging features are in this phone to prolong lifespan of battery.

When the reception is lagging, wifi searching, more intense gaming, prolonged youtube/video playbacks, phone will heat up too.

Makes you want to attach a ice pack to it permanently... =(

eh, the heating like no joke leh. just now i setting up my apps and whatnot, even with cover, i can feel the heat.

is it because of using 5g? has there been discussion? i search online seem like got suggest 5g might be the issue.

where to turn off 5g ah

Finally got rid of M1 and am now on Starhub. And believe it or not, my battery drain has been lesser throughout the day now. I noticed right when I switched from singtel to M1, while at work my phone seemed to be draining battery a lot faster than usual. My phone will be in my pocket and mostly untouched. I will notice that the battery will be at 70%+ when it was usually in the high 80s. And towards the end of the work day my battery was hovering in the low 60's percentage when it was previously mid 70's. I kept thinking there was a rogue app causing wakelocks. So I installed BetterBatteryStats and found nothing out of the norm. But since I didnt have anything to prove at the time, I cant say much.

Until I switched to starhub and noticed right away that my battery life is pretty much back to when I was using singtel on the P7. My phone usage habits has not changed one bit throughout this entire time.

Pretty convinced now that M1 is unusable for pixel 7 users. Whatever their network is running on, its not playing well with the P7 baseband at all. Not only was my LTE/5G reliability utter garbage, but as a bonus its massively draining battery too. What a lose lose case. I wouldn't even use it even if M1 gave me free subscription.

For those of you having mediocre battery life on the P7 or P7P and are on M1, maybe its not neecessarily the phone after all.

Nah... it's just M1... It was bad even when I had my Huawei P30 Pro as well. Finally dumped them after so many years with them.

Anyone here got issue accessing 5G from their pixel?
Been stuck with LTE icon for the entire day, just port over from MyRepublic and never once gotten 5G signal.

Their technical support say I've already been using the 5G data. :cry:

last time I said the fingerprint works after I placed tempered glass, now quicker after registering after collecting phone back from CTDI service center
Read HWZ Forum Rules!

I still suffer from fingerprint issues. based on what I check on Reddit, looks like I have dry thumb. I realize it work better if my thumb are slight wet or damp after washing hands. quite a dissapointment. didn't have this issue with my previous phone.

Their 5G is starhub leh..

Anyways MyRepublic support is abosutely dabian.
Managed to somehow fixed it by changing my networking settings via the *#*#4636#*#* and turning the data to NR/LTE/etc/etc/etc for 5minutes and turning it back to NR/LTE only. That's when I started to get 5G signal.

Does anyone have this issue that when taking photos sometimes, the camera does not take a pic when you press the shutter? Doesn't happen all the time but often enough to be annoying.

I just got the Pixel 7 Pro in Black. Beautiful design to my eyes. Smooth, minimal heat from prolonged usage and decent battery life for a day's use. Used to be a Samsung user but swapped over to Google Pixel. Enjoying the experience.

Have a few friends kept trying to convert me to Apple but I just cannot get used to using the Apple iPhone. The user interface I can't get used to it. Been a long time Android user and the Pixel 7 Pro ticks all my boxes.
