Guys be wary of you have T-Mobile. The best buy "unlocked" version does not include T-Mobile as a supported carrier. I believe the Google Store version of the unlocked pixel8/8pro DO support T-Mobile, but not as good of a deal as best buy with the trade-in
This is wrong. There are two models of the P8:
  • Model# G9BQD which is the non mmWave version sold everywhere, and
  • Model# GKWS6 which is the mmWave version sold only through Verizon, AT&T and Google Store
BestBuy sells G9BQD as the unlocked model. It's fully compatible with T-Mo. BB no longer activates T-Mo phones since their partnership ended on 9/30. However, not activating has nothing to do with the phone's compatibility. Don't conflate the two.

No issues last year with the p6 to p7 trade in. Out in less then 10 mins with 2 different transactions.

Just do the data swap (backup)before you got into best buy to save time

Pixel fan through and through, but the phone is going to crap the bed wayyyyy before 7 years gets here.
Pretty much. The battery on my Nexus 6P and port on my Pixel 3XL both lasted less than a year. Google replaced both of them for free, but it's still a pain in the neck.

I'm seeing $450 for my Pixel 7 to be traded in unlocked, and in good condition. It's tempting, but even after selling the pixel buds pro online, I'd still owe money to upgrade to the Pixel 8. Buying the iPhone SE from walmart to trade in is still a better value. I can still sell my own pixel 7 for around the same price on Swappa.com, and sell the pixel buds pro as well and come out ahead.

Then pixel 7 went on sale without any trade-in for $289 from Mint a few months after launch...
I got in that deal. It also came with a free 12 month 10gb plan from mint. Now mint upgraded it to 15 gb for free which is awesome!

Do Pixels get regular software updates like iPhones? My Samsung only had one software update in the last two years.
I have a 6a. I get regular monthly software updates. I get OS updates for 4 years. This is one of the primary selling points of a pure Google phone. Also my phone was purchased through the Mint mobile deal. It was unlocked. I was able to have the bootloader unlocked (I don't really need this option, but did it anyway). My phone works on T-mo and Verizon and all the MVNO's on those towers.

Just put in a pre-order for a 256gb pixel 8, trading in an iphone 11 256gb. $310 after trade in with the free pixel bud pros. Very Slick indeed.

I hate that tax is getting added on. So its not really $239 after the fact, its $239+$70 tax = $309.

However you can maybe sell those Pixel Buds Pro for $100 so that helps.

Anyone know precisely which iPhone SE 3rd Gen to buy from Walmart that will give the least amount of issues at Best Buy?

Did you trade in online? BB website doesn't show the option to trade MVNO branded iPhones.

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
I thought that was just me. It's very frustrating to sometimes have to switch hands JUST so I can unlock my phone

I'm right handed and wondering if it has anything to do with the skin texture. Saw on Reddit someone suggesting to touch your thumb to your nose. Maybe that oils the thumb and reads better. 🤷
