Last year, you could get a free Pixel Buds with thePixel 7or thePixel Watchwith the 7 Pro in selected markets. The upcoming Pixel 8 appears to be no different, with the company seemingly bundling a free Pixel Buds orPixel Watch 2with the phones. A new leak sheds light on thePixel 8’s launch day offers and the freebies that Google plans to bundle.
In a post on X, Roland Quandt shared Google’s preorder bundle for the Pixel 8 series. If you opt for the Pixel 8, you will get thePixel Buds Profor free, one of thebest wireless earbudson the market. And with the Pro model, you’ll purportedly get a Pixel Watch 2 at no cost. The bundle appears similar to last year’s Pixel 7 series and corroborates aprevious leak.
Google provided a similarpreorder bundle with the Pixel 7ain May this year, where you could get the Pixel Buds-A Series for free.
This preorder bundle would make the new Pixels a lot more value for money. A free $350 smartwatch will help justify the Pixel 8 Pro’s rumored $1,000 price tag, especially since the Pixel Watch 2 could pack some significant changes, including the switch to a faster and more efficient Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 chip and new health sensors. Based on all the leaks, the watch could give thebest Android watchestough competition this year. And if you were planning to buy the phone and the smartwatch, the preorder bundle is a no-brainer.
With the Pixel 8 seemingly costing $100 more than its predecessor this year, a free pair of Pixel Buds Pro will help sweeten the deal.
It’s likely that the preorder bundle will only be available upon purchasing the Pixel 8 from Google’s online store in the US and select other markets. Other retailers may or may not offer a similar bundle. There will likely be a strong preorder rush for the new Pixels afterGoogle’s announcement on October 4, so try to get your order in early if you want to secure the bundle.
