It was a little disappointing to see that the Amazon Prime Big Deals Days sale hasn’t triggered an early discount on the Pixel 9 series, but the best discount we could have hoped for is maybe $100 off. The next best thing is a massive 42% price drop on the Google Pixel 8, which is what the sale has delivered.
This is the lowest price we’ve ever tracked on the near-stock Android device, with the discount slashing almost $300 off the usual price. The deal is only available on the base model of the Pixel 8 in the Obsidian colorway, and you also need a Prime membership to get it. You can sign up for a free 30-day trial if you’re not already subscribed.
Google Pixel 8
A bright display from Google’s 2023 flagship phone
The Google Pixel 8 introduces the new Actua display, a 6.2-inch panel that’s 42% brighter than the Pixel 7. Backed by the fully updated Tensor G3 chipset, and a new 50MP camera, this promises to be one of the more exciting Pixel phones.
The Google Pixel 8 still offers a compelling mix of features and performance. Its 50MP main camera, with improved low-light capabilities and accurate color reproduction, continues to be a standout in its class. The 120Hz display and fast wired charging are notable upgrades over its predecessors, while AI-driven features like Audio Magic Eraser and Magic Editor bring enhanced editing tools to the table. The seven-year update promise makes it no danger to step back a generation, so this is the chance to get the 2023 version for half the price of the latest iteration.
