Google Pixel8a + $100 Best Buy GC - $499 (Preorder)

$499.00

Best Buy just put up their own deal on the Pixel 8a announced today.

$499, but they include a $100 Best Buy GC with it.

You can also save another $100 by activating the phone through them.

It looks like they don't have their trade-in offers up for it yet, but likely will at some point today if you're waiting for that as well.

Google Fi has the phone for $299 with poor trade in deals. You have to maintain service though

That was only ever on the 8 Pro, not the regular 8 (or the new 8a)

That said, I've found it oddly useful on my 8 Pro. I didn't think I would, but it's come in handy. Though, admittedly, a very niche use case and I wouldn't care if it weren't there either.

Why even is it there? Do we have any idea now vs at release lol

Seems like useless hardware that just added cost. Or maybe grabbed some headlines who knows

Ever since flagship phones started charging $800+ on release unlike the olden days of $500 goes with the saying the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

I don't see Amazon offering a $100 gift card like Best Buy.

I find it very odd that the 5a is not on the trade in list over at Best Buy.
