Best Buy's page if you want to activate an unlocked device as part of the order says "We're currently only able to activate service on this unlocked device with Verizon, Google Fi Wireless and AT&T."

But that doesn't mean the phone isn't compatible with T-Mobile, it probably means they don't stock T-Mobile SIMs and service. Do you have a source that says this unlocked phone from Best Buy will not take a T-Mobile SIM?

Also, trade-in note at checkout if you're selecting store pickup is "Bring your trade-in device to the store when you pick up your new item."

Do Pixels get regular software updates like iPhones? My Samsung only had one software update in the last two years.
Pixel 8 has guaranteed OS and security updates for 7 years.

That beats everyone except the latest fairphone, and that's not sold in the US.

That's my only real gripe about the Pixel 7. It reads my left thumb almost every time. It reads my right thumb about half the time. No amount of calibration will fix it for more than a day. My Pixel 5 worked every time with any finger.

I'll wait for Black Friday to see if there is a better offer
Holy s---. I thought I was the only one. Exact same boat.

My #1 gripe about the P7 is the in-screen fingerprint reader. Almost broke me to the point of switching to Apple.

I bought the iphone (straight talk) from walmart, will be picking up and trading in (in person) at best buy. There was no option for straight talk so I picked Verizon. Hopefully no one cares. Thanks OP!
Can you please keep us all updated? Thank you!

Google is such a ripoff. Tried doing the trade in for 8Pro and guess what it gave me for my Galaxy Fold 4 256GB TI value ? A mere $300ish. I can shove this phone up to their ... for free. What a joke.

I went back to my Pixel 5 and still use it for that very reason. But, of course it's an old phone now, so I won't have much choice but to upgrade soon Frown

I agree that the fingerprint sensor on the Pixel 7 isn't great.

You should try adding your troublesome finger as two different fingerprints. Program the same finger, two times, like two different fingers. This helped mine become more reliable, though still not perfect.

Be a lot better if you could get the watch with the Pixel 8. The pro is too large.

Unless you need it right now or simply want it right now. Wait until Black Friday through the holiday season. Typically they have much better deals that come along for the phone itself. Now if you want the included buds or watch, maybe a different story.

Second this. They only give $325 for the pixel 7 trade in, so no thanks I will still use my pixel 7.
Last year, they only ask for less than $100 from the 6 to 7 upgrade.

Did the 6 to 7 bestbuy upgrade last year for $30 + had to buy a $100 gift card.

Going from 7 to 8 will be a total of $297 (will drop by about $30 with tax offsets), and a pair of pixel pro headphones. If the headphones were on par with other $200 sets, I'd be all over it, but they don't seem like much of a step-up from my jabra active 75t per rtings.

Going from lemongrass to Hazel seems like a bit of a downgrade as well as I love my clear case. I am a spectrum customer, so I might just do the $400 pro 7 deal for a 2nd phone, buy a cheap plan, then unlock/swap sims after 2 months as I've already prepaid the full year on my current phone. I just won't be able to use it for 2 months as I'm not looking to port my number.

Decisions... decisions...
