The so-called Super Res Zoom is undoubtedly one of the biggest upgrades the Pixel 7 Pro offers over its predecessor. It’s a combination of software, hardware and machine learning that allows for solid 30x zoom photos even if the actual telephoto zoom caps at 5x.
Here’s a gallery of One World Trade Center in Manhattan. The zoom starts at 1x and ends at 30x.
To show the power of the so-called Super Res Zoom, Google shared a gallery of photos showing what the Pixel 7 Pro is capable of. From 20x zoom and up, the phone uses a new machine learning-powered upscaler, powered by the new Tensor G2 SoC. And after 15x magnification, the handset uses advanced Zoom Stabilization, so you don’t need a tripod to take long-range shots.
Super Res Zoom from 1x to 30x
Google says it has been working on the Super Res Zoom thing since 2018 because users are looking for advanced zoom capabilities without having to carry a bulky and expensive DSLR camera setup. Make sure to check out the full gallery of samples at the source link down below.
