Where can you buy Google Pixel phones? Which one to choose?
Telekom Slovenije last offered the Google Pixel 3, the other Google Pixel phones never caught their attention. A1 Slovenia has not yet launched opportunities in Google devices. Telemach, which has the Google Pixel 6 in black in its offer, and T-2, which has the latest Pixel 7 models in its T-2 Club, but not at the best price, do the best.
It all works very sad, especially since it is the products of the biggest technological giant in the world and the developer of the most popular operating system.
Pixel phones thus belong to the not exactly a flattering list of devices, to which Slovenian users are very fond difficult we access. The list also includes vivo, Oppo, OnePlus, Asus, Nubia (Red Magic) phones, which are available in Slovenia in a limited range or not at all.
We have nothing leftÄ other than to turn our eyes to foreign sellers. It is usually the first address Amazon, and those more skilled searchers are still looking for other stores in our nearest neighbors.
Why don't we have a Google representative in Slovenia?
If we take into account the data of the Statista analysis, in 190 countries around the world there are more like 3 billion Android users. A huge network that no one can compete with. We would expect that such a network of users would simultaneously have unlimited access to all other Google products, especially to Pixel phones, which in recent years matured into a real competitor.
As always, the absence of Google phones can be justified by the small size of the Slovenian market. Although the offer is limited in Slovenia, we can buy them from our neighbors.
The most common reason or excuse why Google does not have a representation in Slovenia is that we are easy too small market. To successfully manage the entire sales and after-sales experience, which includes warranty claims, repairs, customer support, would represent a cost for them that would not be recouped through sales. Of course, we don't have an official reason, so we can only conclude. In any case, we are on I'm getting worse Slovenian consumers, who would like to see the Google phone live before we buy it. If the #140 were available from operators, we believe that many users would reconsider whether they want the latest Samsung or Xiaomi, or will try the Pixel phone this time.
Anyway, hope remains. The Internet is a wonderful thing, and we don't have to go far to get our hands on the latest (or older) Google Pixel phone.
Google Pixel phones: Which one to choose?
Let's start with the best. Last October, we got the Google Pixel 7 and Google Pixel 7 Pro, which will hold the title of the best phones from the American manufacturer until the next release.
The Google Pixel 7 Pro is the best that Google currently has. The Pixel 7 Pro has flagship phone specs but a mid-range price.

The Google Pixel 7 Pro is the follow-up to the very well-received Pixel 6 Pro phone. Of course, it was further polished and built in Nov processor Google Tensor G2, improved cameras, battery, screen … The upgrade is noticeable andfor significantly less money, it's a phone that can compare with other flagships on the market, including Apple's iPhone 14 Pro Max and Galaxy S22/S23.
6.7-palÄni LTPO AMOLED screen The well-known Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection. It refreshes dynamically from 1 to 120 Hz. The maximum brightness is 1,500 nits, resolution up to 1440 x 3120 pixels. Although they have improved the screen, it lags behind the biggest competitors in almost all parameters. Apple and Samsung have the best screens on the market for a reason, but Google didn't giveÄ behind them. And in any case, we must not forget that it is a phone that can boast of almost half the price.
They also improved the cameras. The ultra-wide camera now has a significantly wider angle compared to the Pixel 6 Pro. It also got a macro camera function, which automatically turns on when you get close to the subject. Optimum stabilization is excellent. 5x optical zoom and up to 30x digital zoom are available. You can record in 4K resolution (60 fps), which also applies to the front camera.
What has confused users is the glass back that is very slippery. The matte coating that would improve grip is missing. We recommend using a cover for safer use. Charging is also a weak point of Google, similarly with Samsung and Apple. Google Pixel 7 Pro can be charged at a speed of 23W, you need to buy the charger separately.
Člet's also note the fact that Google offers “only” 3 years of Android upgrades and 5 years of security patches. Samsung offers one year longer Android support, which does not exactly speak in favor of the developer of the Android operating system.
And now the answer to the main question, what is the price of google pixel 7 pro?
- Google Pixel 7 Pro 128GB/12GB
- Snow white: €795.99
- ÄŒrna: 799 €
- Teal: €790.99
- Google Pixel 7 Pro 256GB/12GB
- Snow white: €927.60
- Črna: 851 €
- Grey-green: 860 €
The Google Pixel 7 is cheaper, but still a very good phone. The Pixel 7 made some compromises, but it is also cheaper by up to 300 euros.

Pixel 7 is smaller, cheaper version of the #141 phone Pro. You will make some compromises, however Welded up to almost 300 €. The 6.3-inch screen refreshes at 90 Hz and has a lower resolution (FHD+ vs. QHD+). The battery is smaller (4,355 mAh vs. 5,000 mAh), and as a result, so is its autonomy. It boasts the same main camera as the Pixel 7 Pro, but has not received the upgraded ultra-wide and telephoto cameras.

- Google Pixel 7 256GB/8GB: current price at Amazon Warehouse 637.97 €; It is a product with open packaging: a valid warranty and the possibility of returning the product within 30 days.
Google Pixel 6a is the best budget phone for many. It boasts an excellent camera and an extremely low price.
Google Pixel 6a
Google Pixel 6a is one of the most impressive budget phones, which are available at this time. The main reason is the Tensor G1 processor, which can boast almost flagship performance. According to many, it also has the best set of cameras in this price range. The advantages of the Pixel 6a include an attractive design, a compact 6.1-inch design (OLED screen) and light weight, and Google's own version of Android. Many media have labeled the Google Pixel 6a as the best budget phone, unfortunately we were unable to test it in the editorial office.
On paper, however, we noticed some shortcomings: 60-Hz display only, zoom photography is not useful, there is no 3.5mm headphone jack and slow charging.
The Pixel 6a bets primarily on processor speed, an excellent main camera, an authentic Android experience and extremely low price.
- Google Pixel 6a 128GB/6GB
- Green: 319 €
- Grey-white: 296.67 €; open packaging
- Dark Grey/Black: 319 €
These are the main models that deserve your attention. The Google Pixel 6 Pro is still a great phone, but I'd rather recommend you to sacrifice a few euros and get a significantly better phone (Pixel 7 Pro) with longer Android support. If you're still tempted to buy the Pixel 6 Pro, you can check it out here for €554.
Google Pixel phones do not have access to the 5G network in Slovenia
This is an important fact to remember before any purchase. The unavailability of the 5G network is not an obstacle at the moment, as 4G is more reliable and fast enough for our needs. Whether this will change in the future is not yet known. In all likelihood, there will be no changes until Google officially enters the Slovenian market.
