Just came back from best buy store . I told rep that I need to order pixel 7a with Verizon which is having promotion price of $129. Not sure what he did but he gave the phone for $129 without even activating the line with Verizon. Also did not charge sales tax.

$129 if you activate with Verizon or ATT, awesome deal! Too bad T-Mobile is no longer with Best Buy. Magenta is getting greedy and wants more control

I think you could buy the $100 Best Buy gify cards for $90 on Amazon and save even more with multiple accounts.
yep i was thinking the same thing but didnt want to deal with it.

I could have saved another 40 bucks going this route since i bought two pixel 7a''s for 229

I've been using the 7a for around 10 months now. Still enjoying it. Camera is top-notch, battery life is solid, etc. My only quirk is that sometimes swiping from an app to the home screen will make it go to a blank screen instead...apparently it's a bug with how Android interacts with 3rd-party launchers like Nova. But for $229, can't really wrong.
i notice this as well with my moto g stylus, using Nova launcher

I have the Pixel 8 pro but I read that the Pixel 7Pro was better. I have a few issues with my pixel 8 pro and I'm considering downgrading

179 at verizon if you already have an account there. Plus a 35 dollar "upgrade" fee. I guess I'll stick with my 4a.

Am I the only one who passes on any Best Buy deal due to their industry-worst return policy? I just can't be bothered... All I can say to anyone buying this, read the fine print of all their policies so you aren't surprised. BB lurkers gonna TD the hell outta this.
Industry worst? I have returned like 20 items to best buy with no issues. This is the first I have ever seen with a restocking fee. B&H is far worse for returns and restocking.

How fast does the Pixel 7a charge? You'll be ready to go in just under two hours to go from 0 to 100%. The Pixel 7a needs around 1 hour and 59 minutes to fully charge its battery


Good enough for me , i dont live on my phone 24/7 or play games. They make real portable gaming devices now
Just reading that sounds brutal. My two and a half year old OnePlus 9 charges from zero to 100% in 30 minutes or less.

I went through the process to add to cart - price was $179 due to best buy today. The billed later by verizon shows $0.00/month + 35$ activation. Surely the $179.99 will show up on my verizon bill next month, right? I'm just imagining that I will be getting the slickest deal ever....

Is anyone else seeing this that can enlighten me?


Edit: Reading comprehension is hard for me apparently - I now understand the charges.

How much you pay for that? From my research you paid 2x-4x more so 450-1000

In 2 years i will own a S24 plus for 229.00

If you purchase at Best Buy and use their link to upgrade your Verizon account, how long does the original Verizon device stay active?

I can't imagine that it deactivates your original immediately but ....

Thank you,
Per Best Buy Chat:

I see that if you buy it with phone with a Verizon upgrade then from the purchase day your carrier will get disconnected from the day of the purchase to the delivery .

I doubt an unlocked 7a will ever get lower. The unlocked 6a never got lower than $250. There will probably be some $99 locked deals for BF.

Can you take milkyway star picture at night with 7A model?
Does it have astrophotography mode?
Maybe 7 pro has that option...
