FYI, in the US at least, there are two Pixel 6 "standard (aka not Pro)" models; one with and one without mmWave.
Based on the specs on the Visible site and the price, it appears that they are selling the one without mmWave. (The mmWave is typically $100 more.)
The Pixel 6 from Verizon (or from Google for Verizon) has mmWave, as well as the Pixel 6 from AT&T.
The Pixel 6 from T-Mobile (or sold from Google as unlocked) does NOT have mmWave.
"Although mmWave 5G offers exponentially faster speeds than Sub-6GHz 5G, it's more limited in terms of range. That means a phone with mmWave 5G support will need to be located somewhat close to a 5G tower to truly enjoy those faster speeds. This may work in major metropolitan areas where there are multiple towers spread throughout the city, but it's less of a possibility in rural areas. Because of that, mmWave 5G rollout has been slow and it's available only in select cities."

So, 599-99-50=450
With visible 500-200+75(visible 3mo svc)-99(buds MSRP)=375
For me I added losing CB and real value of buds
599-200-99+10(5% cb of 200)+29($70 resale value of pixel buds)+75(visible 3 mo payment)=414 but I would be charged tax on MSRP
Add 5% cb $30 on $599 from PayPal ~ 414-30 = 384
Add 2% cb from tcb = 599*2% = 12 then 384-12= $372
Delta tax diff at 8.25 = 13.7 (599-432). So my price for visible would be 389
Target 500-99-50-22.5(5% redcard)=432.5
If you value the buds, then visible is better else you're going to break even. The buds are gonna be a hard sell for many. You would save $43 if you can handle all the hassles of visible and liquidating the assets.
Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank
But still might be worth it since service value might be more than cash back amount.
