The Google Pixel 7 is another older flagship on offer coming in at £417. It’s still one few compact phones with a premium build on the market even a year after its release and offers some of the best photos of any device out there. The Tensor G2 performs adequately and the battery life is good enough to comfortably last you a whole day of use. You’re also in for at least two more major Android version updates following Android 15 and 5 years of security patches.
