I've been waiting on the price to drop back down to $399. Seems like a decent deal if you don't want to wait until Black Friday for a potentially better deal.

p.s. price is the same at Target for local pickup.

This is a good phone; I have one for sale and honestly thinking about keeping this and returning the S24 ultra.

Phone is small, compact and works well. Nothing wrong with it.

I don't know much about phone deals but I'm seeing the same price on Google Fi store. You can also get it for $299 if you're a Google Fi member.

*edit* it says "Stay active on Fi for 120 days to retain this instant rebate"

Anyone know any tricks to get an even better deal?

Find Pixel 9 for around $500 cash or less on your local FB marketplace maybe a better deal

I bought two pixel 7 pro, and both have terrible call quality. Is pixel 8a better, or the same? Specifically, when I receive a call with noisy background, the other side cannot hear me.

It would likely be no improvement.

The antennas on the 6 series were a disaster. The 7 and 8 got new antennas that were equally as bad. Now again Google has new antennas for the 9 series. I guess we'll see.

One of the phones "redirected" from their intended owners..

Because the Pixel 8 has been cheaper and is a better phone. The 8a has zero reason to exist.
Price point. Today the P8 is $699 the 8a $499 as MSRP, not sure I saw P8 at $399 but regardless the 8a is quite similar so if you can get it for a few hondo less than a P8 it may be a good value deal. If you can get the P8 for the same price, then I agree. Ironically I like the 8a because it has a plastic back (not glass) and that is one less expensive thing to break since I put cases on all my phones anyways. I think of these as better Samsung FE but you do at least get the latest P8 series chip in it (Samsung FE usually goes a gen back).

If you think about it you get a fully modern phone/chipset, 7 years of support for $400, when TOL flagships are well over $1000. Are you getting 2.5 the performance, probably not? I think this is a super value play.

Using pixel 7 pro from almost 2 years when it got released , never had any issues with call, you may want to enable clear call and see if that makes any better.

I switched 'clear calling' on and off, neither helped. I bought both from Woot, not sure whether that is the reason.
