Remarkably, the relatively new, and already affordable, Google Pixel 6a is subject to a massive 33% price drop on Amazon right now. That gives you the chance to pick up this compact Pixel for just $299 ($150 off).

Google’s mid-ranger brings the same Tensor processor seen in the Pixel 6 series, delivering upper mid-range horsepower and powerful machine-learning silicon. This silicon is put to good use thanks to features like offline voice dictation and Magic Eraser functionality.

Pixel 5 and 5a deals

Google’s Pixel 5 was a long time coming, and it turned out to be worth the wait. It wasn’t the highest-spec phone on the market, but that wasn’t the aim. At a $700 retail price, it ditched higher-end features like face recognition and the quirky Motion Sense gestures to bring you the stuff you love: a fantastic display, great battery life, and joyous software.

Google has decided to discontinue the Pixel 5 and the Pixel 4a 5G to make way for the launch of the Pixel 6. Unfortunately, that means that the two phones will remain on sale only until current stocks last, and they are limited. You might need to go refurbished to get your hands on one.

Here are a few of your options still available if you’re looking to get a Pixel 5.

Honorary mention for the Pixel 5a, which launched in August 2021, and it offered everything Google smartphones are known for. Solid performance, a smooth software experience, and some of the sharpest smartphone cameras you can shoot with. It also brings key improvements in build quality and battery life yet is somehow cheaper than its predecessor, the Pixel 5.


Pixel 4a

The Google Pixel 4a takes many of the style cues from the Pixel 4 but at a lower asking price. All of Google’s parts and attention are now turned towards their latest devices so this is another discontinued device, although you can very occasionally pick up a new model.

The Pixel 4a 5G is essentially the 5G-enabled version of the Pixel 4a, but that’s not the only upgrade. The phone has a bigger screen, a faster Snapdragon 765G processor, and a bigger battery. As a result, it perfectly hits the balance between premium and budget, making it one of the best mid-range phones on the market.

Again, this particular phone has been discontinued, and prices are being hiked on available models.


Pixel 4

Google is also axing the Pixel 4 from its lineup, meaning you’ll have to hurry if you want the newest Pixel flagship in your pocket. There are pros and cons to the Pixel 4, but it offers a camera experience that’s tough to top.

Weirdly in comparison to its successors, the Pixel 4 is still available in new condition pretty regularly. There aren’t any hoops to jump through so that you can bring the phone to your carrier of choice.


Pixel 3 and 3a

Pixel 3a and 3a XL

Stepping back another half-generation, the Google Pixel 3a and 3a XL still make fine choices for mid-range devices. They step down to a Snapdragon 670 processor but retain many features such as Google’s powerful camera and integrated Google Assistant.

There are only deals on for the Pixel 3a XL version right now, so check them out if you want to go big with this line.

Pixel 2 and 2XL

If you’re itching for a dose of Pixel nostalgia, you can still pick up a classic Pixel 2 XL at just $128 right now on Amazon. The Pixel 2 may not be a top-notch daily driver anymore, but it still has reasonable specs and could well be used as a backup to your more recent Pixel model.
