These stellar deals on the entire Pixel 6 series are still alive — including a $300 Pixel 6a
While we’re less than three weeks from theGoogle Pixel 7’sdebut, all of the recent leaks — and even Google official communications surrounding the device — point to it being an iterative upgrade rather than a major overhaul the way the Pixel 6 series was. So if you need an awesome new phone right now, take advantage of the deep discounts available for the Pixel 6 series and the still pretty-new Pixel 6a might be the best option, especially if you’re tightening your budget.
We’ve seen theGoogle Pixel 6adrop to $400 already, but it’s back down to $400 at Amazon again. Best Buy’s deal to get the Pixel 6a for $300 if you activate it on purchase at AT&T, Google FI, Sprint, T-Mobile, or Verizon is still active — and if not, they have the same $400 pricing as Amazon. The Pixel 6a features the same processor as the Pixel 6, a slightly smaller screen, essentially the same cameras as the Pixel 5a, and all the same Pixel software perks like Magic Eraser, automatic Call Screening, and the wonderful auto-transcribing Pixel Recorder. This adds up to one of thebest budget phones on the marketand a remarkable value, even when it isn’t on sale.

The Pixel 6a is not only the single-best budget phone on the market today; it’s also one of the best overall Android phones around, and you can grab it for $400 at Amazon or as low as $300 at Best Buy with activation on a participating carrier.
If you simply cannot abide losing wireless charging — which I cannot fault you for, wireless charging is dope — that and the camera upgrades on the Pixel 6 are worth the extra $100 to get a Google Pixel 6. $500 isn’t the lowest price ever for the Pixel 6, but it’s great if you don’t have a phone to trade in at your carrier, especially when we’re unsure if the Pixel 7 will stick to $600 or be higher priced amid a year of sharp inflation. The Pixel 6’s biggest complaint at this point is battery life now that the early Tensor bugs have been ironed out, and betweengreat wireless chargers for the Pixel 6and a wide variety ofPPS chargersto help you top off the 6 as needed in the afternoon or once you arrive home from work.
The Pixel 6 might turn back into a pumpkin this Halloween, but today, it’s still one of the best Android phones to buy. Between Tensor’s AI performance, Google’s computational photography prowess, and Pixel’s small but ever-so-life-changing features, this phone will serve you well for years to come.
The Pixel 6 Pro for $649 is a deal we’ve seen several times in the last two months, and depending on your carrier, you’re able to probably get a better deal there. But if you live life unlocked, don’t want to wait for the Pixel 7 Pro — and its $900 or more price tag — then this is a nice alternative to buying aflashy Samsung phoneif you just can’t get down with One UI. And remember that since we’re 16 days from the Pixel 7 Pro announcement, you could buy the 6 Pro, leave it in the box until October 6, and then either open it or return it based on what you see.
The current cream of Google’s crop is discounted ahead of the new hotness, and if you can’t stomach spending $900 on a phone at the moment, the Pixel 6 Pro is a good purchase down at these Pixel 6-level prices.
