The Google Pixel 7 will unblur all your old pictures
Google is taking its uniqueFace Unblurfeature from the Pixel 6 series and expanding the canvas — both on where that “unblurring” applies and how many people can use it. While Photo Unblur will be exclusive to thePixel 7 and Pixel 7 Proat the beginning, everyone who uses Google Photos will be able to sharpen their old pictures soon enough.
Face Unblur on the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro wasn’t a user-accessible mode, but spot corrections driven by machine learning that can enhance details of human faces in a photo even when capture times drag on a little too long. As far as what Google has said about Photo Unblur, we do know that there will be a user experience here that will focus on sharpness and noise reduction with “just a few taps.”
On the Pixel 7 devices, a lot of arm grease comes from collating details from the main and ultrawide cameras and adds in some special sauce from the Tensor G2’s dedicated machine-learning power. That said, the machine learning stuff isn’t limited to the new Pixels — it will also work with old stills, too. Supposedly, that’s where opening up access via the Google Photos app comes into play, but details on what that will entail and when weren’t discussed at the Made by Google event.
Google has brought other features out of the Pixel roundhouse and into Photos such asReal Toneand, inan unofficial capacity, Magic Eraser.

Google did not reinvent the wheel with the Pixel 7, but there was no need to. With improved cameras, the next-gen Tensor G2 chipset, and Google’s wonderfully feature-filled software, the Pixel 7 earns its price tag again this year.
Google’s Pixel 7 Pro refines the Pixel experience after the 6 Pro’s initial stumbles last year, improving stability and taking the camera prowess to new levels with image fusing and 4K60fps video on all cameras. 30W fast charging and Pixel’s addictive features like automatic Call screening and Pixel recorder help make the Pixel 7 Pro an alluring phone even as an iterative update.
