One of the reasons why I love the end of the year so much, besides the holiday season, is because capitalism pushes into full throttle. Companies want to sell a lot more than they usually do so they place massive discounts to encourage buying. As a consumer, I love discounts, so the whole thing ends up being a win-win.
Google is going to take part in the Black Friday craze this year, starting next week, but ahead of then, the company has decided to share some of the savings you can expect. This gives you more than enough time to get your pocket ready, so let’s take a look at the deals.
Google Has Some Great Black Friday Deals Coming On Its Current Pixel Hardware Portfolio
Everyone loves savings. If you can get the same great product for a lot cheaper, there’s no reasonable basis to say no. That’s what Black Friday does—it brings sweet discounts to the consumers at the end of the year.
Fortunately for Pixel lovers, Google is going to be partaking, starting November 21st. Here are some of the sweet deals that you’ll be able to grab a hold of in less than a week.
Pixel 9
The Pixel 9 is the company’s base model for the year, bringing Google’s own Tensor G4, fantastic cameras, and a more compact build. For all of that, Google launched the Pixel 9 at $799, but you’ll get $150 off. That brings Google’s latest to just $649.
Pixel 9 Pro & Pixel 9 Pro XL
With the Pixel 9 Pro bar phones, you get a lot of perks over the base Pixel 9. For instance, there’s an extra camera, the selfie camera is upgraded, the screen is better, and you get more RAM. The smaller Pixel 9 Pro launched at $999, while the Pixel 9 Pro XL—for those who love bigger displays—cost $1,099 at launch.
Both phones will be getting $150 as their Black Friday discounts, bringing the Pixel 9 Pro to $849 and the Pixel 9 Pro XL to $949.
Pixel 9 Pro Fold
The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is Google’s second foldable attempt and it is a beautiful refinement of the previous one. It does lose out on some of the things that enhance the other Pro models and the camera setup is a compromise too. Regardless, it’s still a good foldable on paper. It normally costs an eye-watering $1,799, but a $300 discount will bring it to 1,499.
Pixel 8a
For those who like the Pixel experience on a budget, the Pixel 8a will get even cheaper. You get the same great cameras and Pixel software experience for $100 less, taking a $499 phone to $399. That’s a sweet deal.
Pixel Watch 2 & Pixel Watch 3
Need something Pixel-branded on your wrist? You won’t notice too much of a difference between the Pixel Watch 2 and the 41mm Pixel Watch 3, but the latest model finally introduces a 45mm option—perfect for those with bigger wrists.
Both watches will be getting a $100 discount starting November 21st, bringing the 41mm Pixel Watch 3 to $249, the 45mm model to $299, and the Pixel Watch 2 to $149. Sounds good.
Pixel Buds Pro 2
If you want to go the Pixel way for your audio too, the Pixel Buds Pro 2 are a great option, especially with all the Gemini magic that they now have built-in. Google’s Black Friday deal with slash $50 off, bringing them to $179.
