As today is the first pre-order date for the new Pixel 4a that has a release date of August 20th, It will be listed at Bestbuy and other places today starting at $349 for the phone itself. Hopefully one of these listings will include a gift card like last years 3a, so it may pay to be patient and hold out on ordering.

Edit: Bestbuy just listed the 4a for 349 and no gift card yet, or 249 with Sprint activation, or 299 with other carriers activation...

Isn't this $40 more than MSRP? And all you get is a case?

What am I missing? What's the deal?

Isn't the base price $350? Why does the case bump up the price by $40

After ordering, you can edit the order and cancel the case (which is $40).

Keep in mind the 5G model of the Pixel 4a might be coming out soon, and rumored to be either 449 or 499.

The price is $350 and this post proves the specs as well. We just have to wait to see if Google or Best Buy throws in a sweetener in this deal. Last year I bought the 3a for $150 with an iPhone SE trade in and got a $100 gift card. Which I bought the Nest Router for free. Yesterday I sold the phone for $250 and am waiting to upgrade to the 4a.

I also have that $100 google credit left from last pixel 3a deal , pending in my account. Was hoping to use for pixel 4a but no deal this time so just waiting to see if something popup on store.google.com

Available from Google unlocked or set up for Verizon or Google Fi. "Buy Pixel 4a now and enjoy entertainment, games & apps, and extra storage with 3 month trials of YouTube Premium, Google Play Pass, and Google One on us" I have no idea if the trial offers will also be available from other retailers.

https://store.google.com/product/pixel_4a

My google preorder estimates delivery on Aug 19 or 20. (Phone is released on Aug 20).
