Best Google Pixel Deals: Pixel 7 Free With Trade-In, $250 Off Unlocked Pixel 6 and More

We’ve rounded up the best bargains on all of Google’s latest phones, including some chances to save on the brand-new Pixel 7 and 7 Pro.

If you already use Google for your email, calendar and cloud storage, it’s tough to compete with the convenience offered by a Google Pixel phone. And right now you’ve got a few great options to choose from, as all of Google’s current phones have earned a spot on our list of the best phones overall for 2022.

The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro hit shelves just last month, and are the most advanced phones in Google’s lineup. However, there are plenty of other options if you don’t want to spend the money to upgrade to Google’s latest and greatest. The previous-generation Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are still great picks, with more than enough power for most people’s needs. And if you’re after the most affordable option, the budget-friendly Pixel 6A is our favorite Android phone under $500 right now. But no matter which model works best for your needs, there’s no reason to pay more than you have to. Below, you’ll find our roundup of all the best deals on all Pixel phones that you can shop for right now from both carriers and retailers.

If you’re having a hard time deciding which Pixel model is going to work best for you, be sure to check out our comparison of the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro to their previous-gen counterparts for a full breakdown of their specs and performance. If affordability is your top priority, you’ll probably want to opt for the budget-friendly Pixel 6A.

Pixel 7 and 7 Pro deals

The Pixel 7 and 7 Pro hit shelves back in October, and like most new phone releases, there’s a huge variety of offers available at carriers, as well as some discounts available through retailers. There’s a good chance we’ll start to see even more deals pop up as we get closer to Black Friday as well, so be sure to check back often.

Pixel 6A deals

CNET’s Lisa Eadicicco called Google’s affordable next-gen Pixel 6A the «best Android phone under $500.» It’s slightly smaller than the full-size Pixel 7, and features a 6.1-inch OLED display with a refresh rate of 60Hz. It’s equipped with 128GB of storage and 6GB of RAM, which is slightly less than the standard Pixel 7 has, but is still more than sufficient for most people’s needs. It also boasts 5G capabilities and support for Wi-Fi 6 for lightning-fast browsing. It’s already a solid value at its usual price of $449, but we’ve rounded up some of the best deals and offers out there so you can pick one up for even less.

Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro deals

Since the release of the new Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, the Pixel 6 is no longer the most advanced series in Google’s lineup. However, these previous-gen flagship phones still have plenty to offer, and are a great choice if you’re looking for a compromise between Google’s latest and greatest phones, and its budget-friendly Pixel 6a. Since the release of the new phones, lots of carriers and retailers have shifted their best offers over to the Pixel 7 series, but there are still a few deals you can take advantage of to get a Pixel 6 in your hands for less.
