Google ad shows Pixel 7 Pro camera zoom, Pixel Watch UI and new bands [Video]

For the past week, Google has been running a Pixel 7 ad on YouTube that happens to reveal a lot more of the Pixel Watch than we’ve previously seen.

Starting with the phone, we possibly get our first camera samples from the Pixel 7 Pro. Google shows off somebody capturing a dive from a distance by using 4x optical zoom, like the 6 Pro does today. In the background, you see the La Sagrada Familia church in Barcelona, Spain.

There are also examples of the Pixel 7 offering “more detail, while “more focus” and “more magic” (eraser) are also touted.

App usage on the Pixel Watch app includes the Now Playing screen of YouTube Music for Wear OS, Google Maps navigation, Google Wallet/Pay, and taking a phone call. What’s notable about the last short, assuming its representative, is how you can flip the Pixel Watch so that the crown is at the right instead of the left.

This is a deep dive so sorry Folks🤣the pixel 7 Pro and the watch looks Great, I may grab the pixel watch seen how I've been waiting bloody years for this watch, Im currently using a Pixel 6 Pro, and a Galaxy Fold 4, the galaxy Fold 4 being a sort of surprise purchase as I got a deal that I couldn't refuse, anyway Honestly I'm to going to and throw from the fold 4, to my Pixel 6 Pro, what I'm finding hard to comprehend and live with is the Software experience, granted these are very different devices, however I absolutely love the pixel no bloat, plain Jane software, and I'm especially missing the little things that the Pixel software does, like the now playing, the voice dictation, the seamless updates, the other applications I'm use to using, on the pixel that I cannot make default on the fold 4, don't get me wrong the fold 4 is a phenomenal device, it's software is very good, and with the additional task bar, with the latest Android 12L build it's a bloody good experience, but I'm finding I'm trying to make the Fold 4 into a Pixel Fold, and that means trying to side load install all the pixel applications I can, and as I haven't used a Samsung device in a long time, and I'll never use most of the Samsung applications. So Hey Google, hurry up and make a Pixel Fold, a Pixel Passport, or whatever you want to call it, surely I'm not the only one that wants a Google device like the Samsung galaxy Fold 4.

Speaking of watch faces, we see a few examples, but they are likely applied in post. One that appears to be new is an analog face with two complication spots on the left (weather) and right (day/date).

We get a new shot of the Fitbit experience, specifically the exercise interface. We see rings at the edge possibly representing heart zones (Fat Burn, Cardio, and Peak), BPM (beats per minute) up top, step count, and two other stats.

On the band front, we got a glimpse of what we believe is the woven strap — note the plastic band attachment — in Coral. And a leather band with visible lugs that clearly differ from the default rubber ones.

Other things highlighted in the Pixel 7 and Pixel Watch ad include the Tensor G2 and quite a few Pixel Buds Pro shots. This 30-second video is unlisted and posted on September 22. It has over 830,000 views and presumably played as a YouTube ad.
