Although the Best Buy product listing reads "Save up to $1,140.00 when you trade in a similar device [archive.ph]" (screenshot [archive.org]), there is currently no trade-in value that high. When I collected the data from all 2816 eligible trade-in SKUs, the highest trade-in value was $950.00.

Here are all the trade-in offers as a spreadsheet: Best Buy SKU 6559251 – All Trade-In Values.xlsx [archive.org]

Interesting math:
Google Pixel 7 Pro ― $600.00 base + $250.00 bonus = $550.00

Writing as someone who has both an iPhone 15 Pro and a Pixel 7 Pro, I can say with confidence that both are incredible phones, and the Pixel 8 Pro does have some strong advantages over the 7 Pro.

I still prefer the Pixel cameras over the iPhone ones (more true-to-life images vs. iPhones' exaggerated / cartoony / over-saturated look), and -- though the iPhone is my daily driver now -- I miss a ton of things about the Pixel/Fitbit ecosystem: far better sleep tracking, much better spam protection in calls and texts, flip-to-shhh, etc.

Edited to add:
But yeah, no sane person is gonna argue against the fact that iPhones have better resale value than Android phones. So if that's your biggest consideration, stick with iPhones.

Just traded in a Pixel 7 physically at Best Buy. It took them a while to figure out the discount business. The total trade in value was $450. $250 from Google and $200 was Best Buy gift card. The total came out to $286 for Pixel 8 (128 GB) and Pixel Bud Pro. Here is the math: $699-$250=$449 (tax on this amount was around $37), then subtract $200 Best Buy gift card. Final payment: $286.

I was able to pick up the Buds pro right then, received a message 15 mins later. I went into the store so I could physically trade in the phone, as opposed to mailing it, and also to make sure that all the discounts show up.

It's probably been answered but this is a long thread. Can I just return the watch for 350?

Were the Buds Pro the charcoal color or did you get a choice? When I order online it only says the Bud Pro charcoal color.

Yes, they are the charcoal color. Best Buy does not give you the option to choose any other color. However, they did allow me to choose the color on Pixel 8.

What?
Best Buy gave you a gift card of $200 instead of subtracting $200 from total cost?
Having gift card is a terrible idea since you are now tied to buy over-priced items from Best Buy.

The gift card can be applied to the order right away. It is not one of those situations where the gift card can only be used for future orders.

The split is how Google and Best Buy must have agreed on the discount. $250 from Google and $200 from Best Buy. Maybe someone who works in corporate can explain how these things work.

But the bottom line is you are getting $450 subtracted from the order cost, meaning I charged $286 on my Apple card(get that 2% off as well) to make it $280.

Bro, buy the $149 brand new iPhone SE 3rd gen at Walmart, free shipping to home. It worth $460 lol. You can sell your pixel 7 for much more than $149
