The Magic Street Search

To celebrate the launch of the Pixel 7 series, Verizon has partnered with Google to create The Magic Street Search, a one-of-a-kind virtual scavenger hunt powered by Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband. We tapped three of the coolest influencers — Desus Nice, Yvonne Ng and Jenna Bandy — to post photo scavenger hunt clues to give you a chance to win the new Pixel 7 Pro. There's only one catch: they used the Pixel's Magic Eraser feature in Google Photos to “remove” legendary landmarks in New York City and Los Angeles from their photos. Your job is to find those locations in Verizon’s custom Google Maps experience. If you succeed, you can enter for a chance to win the new Pixel 7 Pro.

Need some help along the way? Verizon's Magic Street Search Car — inspired by Google’s Street View Car, but topped with new Pixel 7 Pro phones and powered by 5G Ultra Wideband — will tweet additional clues on Verizon's Twitter with footage captured on the go.

Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro are here!

The Pixel 7 series puts the world at your fingertips with interactive features that help you live your life without worrying about the little things. Both phones take full advantage of 5G Ultra Wideband so you can download and stream movies and TV shows in minutes, video conference and collaborate remotely in near real-time and take advantage of new immersive experiences⁸. This is yet another example of Verizon’s focus to accelerate 5G mobility growth with cutting-edge new smartphones. Here are the coolest Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro features.

Performance that adapts to you: At A Glance lets you see important information and shortcuts right on your home screen to save you time based on context — like when your next business appointment is. Pixel searches your commonly used apps, like Gmail, to find hotel reservations, food delivery ETA and video doorbell notifications from Nest and Ring.

Speech recognition is also getting a big boost in the new Pixel phones. Now you have access to additional languages in Live Translate, and instant voice replies from your lock screen with Assistant Voice Typing.

Even the battery adjusts to your needs. Pixel's Adaptive Battery can last over 24 hours by prioritizing power to the apps you use the most⁹.

Photography that unleashes true self-expression: Pixel continues to prove that a great camera is more than just hardware and megapixels. The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro include new features that turn your snapshots into art with zero learning curve.

Want to get rid of that telephone line in the background of a portrait or that exit sign from your wedding photos? Magic Eraser in Google Photos makes distractions disappear, or you can use it to camouflage objects to put the focus on your subject.

Zoom to your heart's desire and get crisp photos. Pixel 7 Pro has the highest quality zoom on a Pixel, ever. Pixel 7 Pro’s Super Res Zoom camera provides image quality comparable to a 10x optical zoom — so you can see the subject at its sharpest — as if you were right up close. On Pixel 7, Super Res Zoom now provides up to 2x optical zoom equivalent results without the need of any extra Telephoto lens¹⁰. For video fans, Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro are now able to create high-quality videos with a beautiful out-of-focus background and colors — called Cinematic Blur — that draw attention to the subject of interest. And with 10-bit HDR, you can record videos with vibrant contrast so you can document epic landscapes and cinematic moments with hyper-realistic quality.

Security, privacy and peace of mind: Keep your business and personal information safe with the new Pixel 7 series thanks to multiple layers of hardware security. Under the hood, Tensor G2 has the Google Security Anchor built in, and it works with the certified, next-gen Titan M2 security chip, which makes Pixel even more resilient to attacks¹¹.

Security risks are constantly evolving. To protect you and your sensitive data against these threats, Pixel comes with at least five years of security updates. With these updates, your Pixel gets even more secure over time.

Whether you run IT for an Enterprise or manage a small business, the Pixel 7 series gives you the peace of mind, battery life and Google innovations you need for powerful, all-day productivity. And later this year, Pixel 7 will offer a free built-in VPN, enabled by Google One, so you have extra protection wherever you’re connected and no matter what app or browser you’re using.
