While the Google empire may be built on its internet-search domination, Google is also known for making some of the best Android phones on the market, some of which have made our list of best mobile phones for 2024. Google Pixel phones are powerful and user-friendly and are a welcome addition to anyone already integrated into the Google ecosystem.
Whether you need the mighty Pixel 8 Pro, the versatile Pixel Fold or a more affordable model such as the Pixel 7A or the previous-gen Pixel 6A, you don’t have to overspend because we’ve scoured the web looking for the best available deals on Google Pixel phones. Not sure what the right model is for you? We’ve done a compare-and-contrast between the Pixel 8 and its previous-generation counterpart, with a full breakdown of their specs and performance.
Pixel 8 and 8 Pro deals
Released in late 2023, the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro are the latest phones in Google’s flagship lineup. They’re equipped with a next-gen Tensor G3 processor, new AI features and improved screens. You have a few ways to buy one for less right now.
Just note that in our ongoing review of the Pixel 8 Pro, CNET uncovered some camera problems that we felt were serious enough to warrant holding off on recommending the phone. Google says it’s working to quickly solve these issues via a software update, and we’re confident that it will. We had no such problems with the Pixel 8 and rated it very highly.
While there are no direct discounts from Google right now, you can get up to $750 in trade-in value, so you could theoretically get the Pixel 8 phone for free, or possibly a steeply reduced price. A purchase also gets you three months of YouTube Premium, six months of Fitbit Premium and six months of Google One with the purchase.
New and existing AT&T customers desiring the Pixel 8 Pro can get up to $1,000 off with trade-in and purchase on installment (with an eligible unlimited plan).
AT&T is offering savings on Pixel phones when they’re purchased on an installment plan. Score the Google Pixel 8 Pro for $0 per month by trading in an eligible device, with a trade-in value of up to $1,040. You must also switch to an eligible unlimited data plan.
The Pixel 8 will cost you $11 per month but you can get savings of up to $444 in the form of bill credits over 36 months, with no trade-in required.
Customers adding a new line at Verizon on any 5G Unlimited plan can get the Pixel 8 for free. Alternatively, you can save up to $800 with just a trade-in if you’re an existing customer who qualifies for an upgrade.
If you prefer the Pixel 8 Pro, you can get up to $1,000 off with a new line and trade-in of the same brand (any model, any condition).

If you want to upgrade, Verizon is offering $200 off, no trade-in or new line required.
Verizon also has a few bonus offers. You can get a Google Pixel Watch 2 for free with your phone purchase, but note that you’ll need a new line of service to get the discount.
T-Mobile customers on a Go5G Plus or Go5G Next plan can get $800 off either model with an eligible trade-in or a new line of service. That gets you the Pixel 8 for free and the 8 Pro for $200.

There are no straightforward discounts on the Google Pixel 7 or 7 Pro through Google right now, but you can trade in your old phone from Google, Apple, Samsung and other brands for up to $515 off (with the latest iPhones netting you the biggest discount).
Similar to Google, AT&T isn’t offering comprehensive deals on the Pixel 7 or 7 Pro right now, but if you’re looking to trade in your old Apple, Samsung or Google phone, you can save up to $500. Newer models (especially iPhones) earn the highest trade-in value.
Best Buy is currently offering $200 off the Pixel 7, bringing the retail price down to $399. The Pixel 7 Pro is $300 off, so it’s retailing at Best Buy right now for $599.

Plus, the purchase of either phone scores you one month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, three months of Google One and three months of YouTube Premium.
Amazon has some bigger discounts on the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro right now, with some options up to 42% off the list price. However, the deals vary a lot based on the color and storage configurations, so be sure to check all the options to zero in on the best deal currently available.
Although Verizon doesn’t have any straightforward discounts on the Pixel 7 or 7 Pro right now, the company is offering savings if you combine the purchase with a Google Pixel Watch 2.

As with the Google Pixel 8 and 8 Pro when you buy six months of service you get six months for free. Both phones are in stock, but available only in a locked model.
