I remember getting my Pixel 7 Pro for under $450 after the $525 trade in credit at Best Buy for iPhone 11, which Walmart happened to have for $200. That deal looked like
$750 - $525 credit = $225
$225 + $200 cost of iPhone 11 = $425 total + taxes.
And yeah. 128GB on a $1000+ phone in 2024 is ludicrous.
Today I wouldn't do it even for free. Mint Mobile has the absolute ass of a service. The internet connection was pretty much non-existent because you were always being deprioritized on the network.
Nothing's changed since. You'll still be treated as a second-class citizen on the already crappy T-mobile network. The phone is definitely not worth its MSRP, so it's only a "deal" on paper.
I am hard of hearing but my Pixel 7 (and Pixel 5 and Pixel 3XL and every other phone before) was adequate with the speaker turned up to max volume. Just got a new Pixel 9 Pro XL and I think I'll have to return it. The phone is practically unusable for me. This is definitely a design bug.
I know there are some strong debates around what constitutes redundancy/backup, etc so I don't mean to start that here but adding more GBs and relying on that is a quick way to a single point of failure.

An SD expansion slot costs practically nothing, but since Apple created the market of charging a king's ransom for something very cheap, every OEM is now looking to cash in too.
