Google went back to its Nexus phone line roots with the upper midrange price and specs for the Pixel 5. Remember the Google Nexus series? It was just the sweetest thing, to watch manufacturers like Samsung, LG, or HTC taking turns to make Google's phones and sell them at or near cost to expand the market.
For just $699, the Pixel 5 carries a Snapdragon 765 chipset with 5G connectivity, a 12MP main and 16MP ultrawide angle cameras, a 6.01-inch OLED display, 8GB of RAM and 128GB of base storage, plus a finally decent 4000mAh battery capacity, not bad at all. Can you get it for less, though?
Needless to say, you can get the Pixel 5 through Google's virtual Fi carrier that piggybacks on the big US networks and it will work like a charm there. Unfortunately, Google Fi is currently offering it for the same price as carriers, or $699, but you do get the plan deal that is only $17/month per line for three of those, and $10 per GB used, or unlimited data for $50 each. On top of that, if you have an eligible trade-in, you can now get up to $500 off.
Google Pixel 5 deals at Best Buy
- $649 with activation, $599 for the Sprint/T-Mobile model
Needless to say, Best Buy is running its typical $50 discount with activation on Pixel 5 carrier models, and you can order yours below. You save $100 if you get a new line or new account with Sprint.
Google Pixel 5 deals at Verizon
Currently, Verizon offers the Pixel 5 at its retail price of $699.99. With the purchase, you can enjoy Verizon Stream TV for free; however, this offer is linked to a Plus plan. Carriers often refresh their deal portfolio, so once Verizon has a deal on the Pixel 5, we'll make sure to include it here.
Google Pixel 5 deals at AT&T
AT&T currently doesn't have a deal on the Pixel 5. But, you can save up to $200 with an eligible trade-in, which is still not bad, given the fact that right now, not a lot of retailers and carriers offer deals, maybe in preparation for Amazon Prime Day. You can use the value of your trade-in to pay your AT&T bill or to make other purchases at AT&T. Check the details of the offer here below:
Google Pixel 5 at T-Mobile
T-Mobile has been reluctant to host Pixel phones on its website, and currently only offers the Pixel 4a. Right now, your best bet to get the Pixel 5 on T-Mobile is at Best Buy if you are a legacy Sprint customer, just go to Best Buy and choose Sprint as a carrier. The price starts at $599.99.
Pixel 5 price and deals at the Google Store
- Price: $699 for 128GB, up to $555 off with a trade-in
- 150 Google Play Points for apps and games
- 3 months of YouTube Premium free
- Google One (100GB cloud storage)
- Stadia Pro
If you are looking at the most obvious place to get the Pixel 5, the Google Store is a decent bet, as it offers free two-day shipping and trade-in deals which, however, is slightly less generous than what you'd find on carrier websites or at Best Buy, for instance.
Pixel 5 price at Google Fi
Needless to say, you can get the Pixel 5 through Google's virtual Fi carrier that piggybacks on the big US networks and it will work like a charm there. Unfortunately, Google Fi is currently offering it for the same price as carriers, or $699, but you do get the plan deal that is only $17/month per line for three of those, and $10 per GB used, or unlimited data for $50 each. On top of that, if you have an eligible trade-in, you can now get up to $500 off.
Pixel 5 deals at Target, Walmart, Amazon
Right now, Target is offering the Pixel 5 at its retail price of $699, but deals change all the time so it's possible it will get a discount sooner or later. The Pixel 5 retails at its standard price at Amazon and Walmart as well.
However, Amazon currently has a nice deal on a refurbished Pixel 5. Of course, this one isn't new, but it was renewed to work and look like a new one:
