Best Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro Deals: Where to Save on Google’s Latest Phones

The latest models in Google’s flagship lineup are here, and we’ve rounded up all the best ways to get one in your hand for less.

If you already use Google as your primary email, calendar and cloud storage service, it just makes sense to get a Google phone. And if you want the latest and greatest it has to offer, you’ll want to pick a Pixel 7 series. There are two models in the lineup — the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro — which feature a new second-gen Tensor Chip, Google’s in-house silicon and improved cameras compared to the previous-gen Pixel 6. You’ll find these new Pixel phones in stock and available at most major retailers and carriers, and thanks to wide range of incredible offers, you can even get one of these sleek new Google devices in your hand for less. So whether you’re an Android user looking to upgrade to the latest model, or a lifelong Apple fan looking to make the switch, read on for the very best Pixel 7 deals you can shop right now.

The smaller Pixel 7 has a more compact 6.3-inch display, down from the 6.4 inches of its predecessor, though still a touch larger than the budget Pixel 6A. The resolution has remained the same, though, meaning slightly more pixels per inch (416 ppi versus 411 ppi). The Pixel 7 Pro retains a 6.7-inch display.

Particular attention has been paid to the cameras in the Pixel 7 series devices, especially when it comes to zooming and low-light performance. The Pixel 7 Pro is getting a new macro photography mode not found on the regular Pixel 7. The Pixel 7 has, however, seen its camera upgraded to an 11-megapixel sensor, up from the 8 megapixels of the Pixel 6, bringing it in line with its larger counterpart.

What colors do the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro come in?

The Pixel 7 comes in three color variants: snow (white), obsidian (black) and lemongrass (yellow). The larger Pixel 7 Pro is available in snow, obsidian, and hazel (green).

How much do the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro cost?

The Pixel 7 series retains the same retail price points that the departing Pixel 6 series held with a $599 starting price. Here’s how US pricing breaks down in full:

Pixel 7 (128 GB): $599
Pixel 7 (256GB): $699
Pixel 7 Pro (128GB): $899
Pixel 7 Pro (256GB): $999
Pixel 7 Pro (512GB): $1,099
