Might not be helpful to everyone since it requires Spectrum internet, but if you happen to have that already, they're now selling the Pixel 8 for $349 (Pixel 8 Pro is still $399, but all three colors are showing as OOS) You can buy it on a 36mo installment plan if you want, but you can just pay the full $349 and own the phone outright. According to the terms of the payment plan, you only finance the $349, there are no bill credit shenanigans like with VZW/TMo/ATT. For people without a trade, it's the best price we've seen so far.
Requires activation to get the deal. Cheapest plan is $15/mo, and since Spectrum runs on VZW, the phone unlocks after 60 days.
TIV for a Pixel 7 is not great ($255 at the moment), but average sale price on Swappa right now is $300ish, so it's close to what you'd net from selling the phone yourself. Comes out to $96 for an upgrade to the newest generation.

According to the terms, you can do the 36mo installment plan and just pay the remaining balance if you leave Spectrum. No bill credits like the major carriers. Still seems better to just pay up front, but it is there as an option.

"Limited time offer; subject to change; offers applies to qualified Mobile customers without any outstanding obligation to Charter. Promotion requires enrollment in a 36 mos. Device Payment Plan. If mobile service cancelled, remaining balance on Device Payment Plan becomes due."
My interpretation is that is for the trade-in credit.

No experience with Spectrum wireless but I'm pretty sure they use the VZ network which has been solid for me for years. I scooped up a P8 with this deal. I bought a launch day P8P but I have been struggling with the size and I'm not sure I'll be able to get used to it

Tax on the price you pay ($349).
The trade-in value they show online has the extra $100 included already.
