These values are not great particularly for Pro, compared to what Samsung offers to their previous gen.

This has been my final tracking for the past 5 days.

This is standard procedure. It will never say delivered. You would magically get an email saying they received it, but the tracking is useless.
Thank you. How long after this tracking status did you get an email from Google that they received the device? It's been almost 8 days for me. The tracking just sat package is late. Google refuses to do anything. Asked me to wait for 2 more weeks.
Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank imjimmy
The FP reader is bad. With or without screen protector. I have a Pixel 6, Pixel 6a and Pixel 7. I don't see any improvement in the FP sensor on Pixel 7. It works about as well as Pixel 6a and very slightly better than Pixel 6.
The accuracy of the FP reader on the P7 is less than 50 percent for me. Try to use the face unlock during the day. With the unimpressive screen and the lag in scrolling, haven't been too happy with the Pixel 7.
My trade in phone is stuck in this status for 10 days:
Moving Through Network
In Transit, Arriving Late

Google is refusing to help as they say it is not delivered. USPS tells me that it was delivered a while ago. Thinking of returning the Pixel 7 - as tomorrow is the last day for the return.
The deal doesn't make sense without the trade in.

I continue to have fp reader issues. Judging from the very active Reddit threads with multiple people voicing frustrations, it's not uncommon to say that the fp reader is not good. I say that as a Nexus and pixel loyalist since Galaxy Nexus. The rear fp reader of days past was far superior, whether it be speed or accuracy of the read
Also, is the trade in amount a refund to the original payment method or a store credit? Thanks.

Note: Your trade-in estimate is valid for 30 days from the day your new phone is delivered.
Even though you can send your trade-in device at any time, if it arrives more than 30 days after your new device was delivered it'll be assessed at current market value instead of your quoted estimate. Current market value is determined by the trade-in terms.
Bracing for a looooong refund process.
One trick someone mentioned on Reddit was to breathe onto the screen to get some moisture, and then they had better luck with the finger print reader, YMMV on that. But definitely wait until Nov update before threatening the class action suit lol!
In regards to the trade in, I sent mine in on Oct 12th, and just today received (almost back to back ) confirmation they received it AND approved it. Try to ignore the Reddit horror stories because A.) They might just be making it up and B.) No one ever reports the positive experiences, just negative, so there is definitely some causation vs correlation bias there.
I am happy to answer any other questions others may have! at the price point i paid for this phone (~$17 OOP depending on how you value credits etc...) I am very happy with the upgrade. I would stick with my P5, however, if the price was anything higher than like 300 or so, as I have not noticed a huge bump in speed and performance over the P5. However, the additional years of security updates are a big bonus to me!
Should you do a chargeback, your Google account is GONE forever.This is the risk with these trade ins. Google dupes you unlike Samsung, Apple and other big corps.

Yep, great phones (I have the P7 and P7P) if you can get them like $200-300 below MSRP.

It may be that Hyla is getting the phone, queueing it, inspecting it and then informing google that the entire process has been completed at once, instead of informing them as the process is taking place.
