Google Pixel 7 Pro powered by the second-generation Tensor G2 SoC was unveiled in India last week alongside the vanilla Pixel 7. Now users are complaining about faulty scrolling on Google’s latest flagship smartphone. According to user reports on Reddit, the display on the flagship phone offers a “sticky” and inconsistent scrolling experience. Several customers are also experiencing scrolling issues in apps. The Pixel 7 Pro features a 6.7-inch LTPO Quad HD+ (1440 x 3120 pixels) OLED display that offers a 120Hz refresh rate. However, the issue seems to be limited to the Pro model at this time. .
Some early Google Pixel 7 Pro owners have taken to Reddit and Twitter to report issues with the phone’s display and touchscreen. According to a Redditor, the touchscreen “constantly sticks on the back of your finger when flicking to scroll. Not to mention the massive increase in keyboard fumble while typing.” A Reddit user says scrolling is very inconsistent on Google’s new flagship phone.
Several Pixel 7 Pro users are seeing scrolling issues in apps. Affected apps appear to include YouTube and Instagram. According to a post on Reddit, when flicking right/left through a gallery of posts on Instagram, the user has to move their fingers further to get to the next photo. Sometimes it’s slower than expected and at times it goes really fast, he added.

Recent user reports have also suggested that the panel of the Pixel 7 Pro consumes more power than expected, causing the battery to drain faster. The handset’s display draws around 3.5-4W at 600 nits, which is about half the brightness levels the display is capable of. In high brightness mode, at around 1000 nits, the display consumes 6W. However, Google has yet to respond to user reports.
Google’s Pixel 7 Pro smartphone went official in India recently with a price tag of Rs. 84,999 for the sole 12GB RAM + 128GB storage model. It comes in Hazel, Obsidian and Snow colors. It is powered by an octa-core Tensor G2 SoC, along with 12GB of RAM and 128GB of onboard storage.
