FAQ

Which retailer has the best Black Friday Google Pixel deals?

It depends on what you're looking for. If you prefer to buy unlocked phones, you'll find that retailers like Amazon and Best Buy are more than willing to discount Pixel devices heavily during sale events. 

If you're okay with making a change to your wireless service or you have a device to trade in, you can expect many carriers to discount their Pixel stock as well. As a matter of fact, there are already plenty of Mint Mobile deals and Verizon deals available for the Google Pixel 9 series at this exact moment. 

Last but not least, if you don't mind a preowned item, Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend typically presents a unique opportunity to buy refurbished tech on sites like BackMarket.com. These devices have been tested and renewed to meet like-new standards, and all items from BackMarket are supported by a one-year warranty. Of course, mileage with refurbished phones may vary, but the site is worth a look while you're shopping.

When do Black Friday phone deals start?

Black Friday deals are actually starting to kick off right now, and the best offers will continue to run through November 29th. That being said, the offers on display will continue to get better as we approach the holiday, so keep checking this guide as I add new Pixel discounts. 

What Black Friday Google Pixel deals can I expect?

Fortunately, Amazon's recent Prime Day event gives us a good idea of what we can expect as the Black Friday deals go live. During that 48-hour sale, we saw a ton of last-gen Pixel phones score record-breaking discounts, while Google tablets and smartwatches saw similarly tempting price drops. We didn't see any major discounts on the Pixel 9 series or the Google Pixel Watch 3, however, but that could change by the time Black Friday weekend rolls around.

    I need some sort of an app to block all Black Friday deals for the Pixel 9 Pro XL. I just don't need to be tempted again to do something I said I wouldn't be doing right away. 😉
