✅Recommended if: you want one of the best Android phones that Google has ever produced; you want great camera performance and software support; you like to buy your phones unlocked.
❌Skip this deal if: you can afford the Pixel 8 Pro; you're eligible for a trade-in or carrier deal; you prefer Samsung phones.
The Google Pixel 8 may be last year's flagship, but it's still an outstanding device, coming complete with the efficient Tensor G3 chipset, a compact design with a vibrant 120Hz display, and seven OS updates guaranteed. Like all of Google's latest releases, the camera quality here is top of the line, plus you get all of those AI-powered software features that everyone has been talking about.
Of course, if you're willing to spend a little more, you may want to consider upgrading to the Google Pixel 8 Pro, especially if you can find a good deal. Speaking of which..
Google Pixel 8 Pro 128GB: $999 $799 at Best Buy
If you can afford it, we recommend going with the Pixel 8 Pro over the base model Pixel 8. You get the same custom processor and years of software support, but the Pro is also beefed up with a larger battery, new temperature sensor, and a 48MP telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom and up to 30x Super Res Zoom. The best part? It's currently $200 off at Best Buy.
