This is the first time I see a company essentially releasing the SAME phone as last year with an outdated processor.
Pixel 10a is essentially equal to Pixel 9a with same storage, memory, camera etc. The very small stuff they actually changed (screen brightness increase of 10%) won't actually matter to anyone. How is it that Google didn't upgrade the Pixel 10a to Tensor G5 or make any other meaningful upgrades?

The $100 Google store credit will expire in 365 days. Take that into account when considering this deal.

Is $399 after the $100 off really a good deal for this mediocre phone??? Honest question
Not particularly. It's the inflated trade in values that make it interesting.

It would be for me if I had the $100 off coupon, to go with the $125 trade-in offer on my 6a, AND the $100 I already got back for the 6a battery issue. If I had any use for the $100 store credit or wanted the earbuds, that also would make it worthwhile even without the coupon (or without the trade-in, but with the coupon). Since I don't care so much about store credit, I'd really need a $100 off coupon to seal this deal for me, and I don't have one. I'm on the fence bigtime without it.

It's honestly also only worth it if you want a new phone right now and you want a pixel. My 6a stops getting supported in a little over a year, I like to keep a phone that's still getting updates. I want a new phone sometime in the next year, so a really great deal right now might be worth it. If I wait for lower pricing than this, the trade-in value of the 6a will probably go down and may eat up the difference in savings, anyway. So that's the variables you have to weigh, for me.

People saying it's crazy to trade in a better phone on the 10a are kinda missing the point -- don't trade in if you already have a better phone! Not all of us have the same phone! lol

And on the question of this vs the 9a -- the 10a has SOS satellite features. Could save your butt in an emergency, and the 9a ain't got that.

I've been googling this, trying to figure out if there's still a way to sign up for something or another that would trigger getting this email, and various tech sites say it appears random. Google may have a reasoning for whom they picked, but it's not apparent yet.

Sucks, 'cause I would pop on this phone right now if I got that $100 off. The $100 store credit isn't useful to me and I don't want the earbuds. I've got a 6a to trade in, which I'd be happy using for another year, but they're offering $125 for it now, whereas it was $75 a month ago and will probably go back to that after this sale. And who knows what it will drop to if I wait until black friday or early 2027.

I don't spend a lot on phones, the 6A was the most expensive phone I've ever bought, and it was around $275. So I'm gunning for that, lol, and it would be possible if I got that $100 off coupon. Actually, it would effectively be $175 if I got the coupon, as I already got $100 from Google for the 6a battery issue (my battery is still ok and I didn't need to replace it). I'm not counting the store credit as I'd just buy something I don't want or need just to use it up, probably.
Refer to the SD post I mentioned above, you can get it with FI to save $250 and with $125 trade in you will get the phone for $165 or so effectively

Does anyone still have a $100 code available? DM me. The phone is to be a gift.
Anyone still have a $100 or $150 code? Desperate after getting fleeced. Be honest.

Was DM'd by (iandyli) [email protected] and sent a $5 GC but never received the code. Send my GC back... Crickets

Also, the modem on the 10a is significantly better than the one on the 9a. It's not just the satellite features either. The signal is noticeably better too.

Is it worth trading in an iPhone se(3rd gen) for $218 tax included total? Anyone doing this?
I did - but then I only paid $75 for the SE3 during a previous christmas deal. Trade in value plus the $150 from the 6a battery issue made it a decent price.

I've had a 6a for a while, with the store credit, coupon, and trade-in, I think it's a pretty good deal.
