Thread Details
Anyone have thoughts on Pixel 9/Pro Black Friday deals? Google's preview shows $150 off all 9 models, but honestly, I'm kind of disappointed. Doesn't seem as good as the 30% off coupon or the recent deal with the 256GB Pixel 9 for $549. Curious if you feel the same or expect better deals to pop up!

They have both the 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL 256GB phones for 1000, with 500 in trade-in credits (no change to plan required).
I traded in an old s10e from amazon, get to keep/sell my current Pixel 8.

If you don't need pro, that pixel 9 deal was also insanely good. I wouldn't expect bf to come close to the 30% off deal or the recent 9 deal. I waited for the 8 pro to drop in price last year post bf. It never happened. They kept pushing the 8a. I feel like that's what will happen this year with the 9a.
If goog did the 30% deal for everyone for bf it'd be epic, but I wouldn't expect it since they already previewed the 150 off for bf.

I wanted to bite at the 256GB P9 last week, but the inferior trade in value was a deal breaker. I'm also ID.me eligible and understand it's not stackable with other sales items. I'm also looking at accessories that aren't in high demand like the 45w power adapter.

If we're qualifying the deals, then the best deal I've found is $600 for the Pro XL with $100 bonus on any trade-in...you just have to be a Spectrum customer.

If you're not getting the 9 xl, the ikea 45w adapter actually was reviewed highly by 'allthingsoneplace' on youtube. That will hit max charging speeds for everything but the 9 xl.
If you want to be future proofed, the official google adapter and the anker 313 45w will charge the 9 xl at full speeds. Basically you need pps 21v to get full speeds, and this is hard to find in adapters. Both of these adapters were also reviewed highly by the same youtuber.
I'm actually going through some videos in his channel again right now. It's annoying how some adapters from the same brand are good and some aren't. There's some good and bad ugreens, ankers, and he said to stay away from the ikea 30w one but the 45w one is good.
