The Pixel 8 Pro is now available at a surprisingly low price, making it a solid option for anyone looking to save some cash on a high-end smartphone. Amazon has dropped the price of the unlocked Pixel 8 Pro to just $624, down from its original $999. That’s a hefty $375 off, making it the lowest price we’ve seen yet for this model.
If you’re eyeing the latest Pixel lineup, the price difference between the models is pretty noticeable. The new Pixel 9 starts at $799, while the Pixel 9 Pro comes in at $999. And then there’s the Pixel 9 Pro XL, which can easily go well over $1,200 depending on the specs. This makes the Pixel 8 Pro, now almost half the price of the 9 Pro XL. So if you’re not too fussed about having the absolute latest tech, this is quite a good deal.
In fact, don’t let its age fool you—the Pixel 8 Pro is still a powerhouse. It’s equipped with Google’s Tensor G3 chip, which means it’s got plenty of speed and AI features to keep up with everyday demands and then some. The 6.7-inch Super Actua display looks great, and the camera setup, which was Google’s best at the time of release, still holds its own with great zoom and impressive photo quality. Plus, you’re looking at over 24 hours of battery life, with the option to stretch that up to 72 hours in Extreme Battery Saver mode. Of course, battery life varies vastly based on your usage, but the Pixel 8 Pro is definitely no slouch in that department.
Sure, it’s not the shiny new Pixel 9, but the 8 Pro’s camera, performance, and build still stack up really well, especially now that it’s priced so low. You’re basically getting flagship specs at a mid-range price. If you’re curious about how the Pixel 8 Pros’ camera stacks up against the new kid on the block, the 9 Pro (same camera system as the 9 Pro XL), then I’d recommend watching this video:
If you’re not keen on spending top dollar, these discounts are worth a look. Alongside the 8 Pro, the standard Pixel 8 is also on sale, down from $699 to $499. Both models offer solid value, particularly if you’re trying to dodge the higher prices of the Pixel 9 lineup.
In short, this is a great chance to grab a premium Pixel phone without breaking the bank. The Pixel 8 Pro might not be the newest kid on the block, but with these savings, it’s certainly one of the best deals out there right now. Go grab it on Amazon before the limited-time deal ends.
