Google has been circling around dropping the Pixel 9 price with surprise vouchers and enhanced trade-in prices in recent weeks. But the company has finally, officially, slashed the price of its flagship phone in an early Black Friday sale.

With this early Black Friday deal on the Pixel 8 Pro at $718— an even lower price than what was offered during Prime Day in October —there has never been a better time to upgrade your smartphone. As stocks may be limited due to high demand during this promotional period, you should act quickly to secure this deal before it’s gone.

Amazon and Best Buy are selling last year's Google Pixel 8 Pro at a huge $400 discount with no strings attached that makes the jumbo-sized Android handset a very smart Black Friday 2024 purchase... if you hurry.

Update November 5th: Update: Google is rolling out another major discount for the Pixel 9 series. People with gold status on Play Points can claim a 30% discount on a Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro / XL and Pixel 9 Pro Fold, according to redditors who have claimed the deal.

The Google Pixel 8a, Pixel 9, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold are on sale. Come learn all about Google's early Black Friday offers.

Before we dive into the reasons behind this price difference, it's worth noting that the Pixel 9 Pro has a significantly lower Bill of Materials (BOM) than even the Pixel 8 Pro. This is mainly due to the lower cost of components used by Google.

According to a new report, Google’s cost for producing a PIxel 9 Pro is just over $400, which might be lower than the previous generation.

It's also worth noting that both the Pixel 9 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro have a retail price of $999. However, Google often offers discounts on the Pixel 9 Pro, such as up to $150 off for Google One members or 30% off for Play Points members. In contrast, Apple rarely provides promotions on the iPhone 16 Pro.

You can score up to $150 off Apple's brand-new 2024 M4 iMac and get your hands on one of the best all-in-one desktops. Plus, AppleCare is discounted too.
