[Pre Order] $250 Bonus Store Credit with Google Pixel 7, $300 Bonus Store Credit with Google Pixel 7 Pro @ Google Store

380

This should stack nicely with the 10% back from the 2TB subscription* - possibly save even more using Unidays or StudentBeans…

Hope this helps someone!

*If you sign up to the 2TB storage plan, it includes 10% back on Google store purchases

    Probably should wait and see if the phone is any good I guess first? Can't be worse than the pixel 6 though.

    • +1

      I keep saying that but they keep dropping the ball :(

    • I keep hearing that the Pixel 6 phones are crap, however most review sites rate them highly in their category of cheap, mid-range phones.

      I used to generally trust the reviews from GSM Arena, Android Authority, Toms Guide etc. which all say it isn't horrible. Have these review sites all sold out? Am I getting old and should I start telling people to get off my lawn with their tiktoks and grams?

      Are there any good independent phone reviewers? I generally do a search and check a couple of the above mentioned sites, I don't like watching 30 minute youtube videos just to find out that I might get a 1% increase in performance or the camera doesn't do shit that I'm not interested in anyway.

    What's the 10%?

    • +1

      If you sign up to the 2TB storage plan, it includes 10% back on Google store purchases

      • Do you know if you contact Google you can get the Google One store credit faster than the 30 days?

    • +3

      You get 10% credit back if your on the 2TB Google One subscription. So the P7P 256GB will get you $300+$144.9=$444.9 credits.

      The monthly fee for the 2TB tier is $12.49, so I wonder if you can subscribe for a month, preorder the phone, get the credits, then cancel?

      • What can credits be used on? Phones in future?

      • +1

        Yes, you can cancel after you have received the credits

  • +1

    Tempted but looking at specs it doesnt look like much of an upgrade on my years old s20+ 5g

  • Google Store: What qualifies under our price match policy?

    Here's what my cart looks like for a Pixel 7 Pro 256GB and adaptor with 10% off from StudentBeans, $300 store credit and 10% back from the 2TB storage plan.

    $1,344.60 - $300 - $134.46 = $900.14

    Understandable it's store credit and not a direct discount, but it helps if you had something planned to buy.

    Add $12.49 on top if you wanna include google storage.

    • +1

      Genuine question, why not order the phone first, wait til the you get the $300 store credits, then buy the charger?

      • Good idea, but I'm planning to buy other smart home stuff :)

        • Understood thanks. I was just wondering if there was a special reason that makes my plan unfavourable :)

          • @kevorulez: Nah I think I'm gonna get the buds pro and pixel stand with the credit

    • +1

      Check for local guide emails too! I just got another 15% off all non-phone products in my order (watch / bellroy case / watch band).

      • +1

        Legend, found an old email with the code <3

      • if anyone has a spare 15% code on Watch and accessories, please DM.

    • Hi.. Can I get a spare StudentBeans code. Thanks in advance.

  • Is the credit only for hardware, or can it be used to pay for Google storage etc.?

    • +1

      Looks like it can only be used for things on store.google.com
      So only for hardware/items in the store.
      Google storage (Google one) is not in the google store and uses google play credits

      They are not premium dollars and their phones are pretty good. It is not basic android - it is good android without bloatware. The thing about android, you have lots of choice - so you pick what you like. I personally have had Pixel 5 for a couple of years, bought it at around $750 and it was a great phone - small, reasonably quick and does what phones need to do, has wireless charging, is waterproof. For my partner we bought a cheapie Motorolla, cause it is good enough. For my son IPhone, because moron teenagers. Now IPhone is where the premium money is (but the phone is good and arguably worth it) and possibly Samsung (but I haven't checked lately - they don't tick all my boxes).

    Here's some quick instructions for people trying to get that 10% back in the google store through Google One promotion
    Note: You need to have signed up for the google one 2TB plan BEFORE buying the pixel

    1. Go to Google one sign up/purchase here
    2. Purchase/Upgrade to the 2 TB Plan (Can choose monthly)
    3. Then proceed to add the Pixel 7 pro to cart
    4. In checkout page, apply the StudentBeans coupon for 10% off, if you have one. You can request one here
    5. Enjoy your 10% Google shop credit (and 10% off Student Beans discount if you got one)

    ps. The 10% Google shop credit is of the amount you paid. i.e. Pixel 7 Pro $1449 -10% student beans discount = $1304.10, You get $130.41 Google store credits

    • How long does it take for this to work? I have signed up but not seen the 10% credit back from the Google One benefits

      • Just did this too, I assume not until it has shipped

        • I meant for the offer to show up during check out like this (credit to Emphasise). It is not showing up in my cart. I just talked to google support, they said to wait for 24 hours.

          • @ash: Hmm, I only upgraded like 10 minutes before putting through the order and I got it.
            Order Confirmation
            Maybe try clearing your cookies for google.com and see if it shows up in your cart?

          • @ash: Oh sorry, I upgraded my google one plan to the one with 10% and it was there straight away

      • +6

        I signed up - but had a one month free plan….you can't get the 10% credits till the free month ends d'oh

        • +3

          Wow that's a massive asterisk. Vote this up, people need to see this.

          • @MyEducation: Just checked my wife's google - she had a normal offer, ie. no free first month.

            So only works if you don't have the first month free offer.

        • +2

          If you downgrade to a lower plan then go back up to the 2TB plan you won't be on the free trial anymore.

    • Is this the same as "[Pre Order] 10% off Google Pixel 7 or Pixel 7 Pro @ Google Store" 10% credit from https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/729085 or different/stacking?

      • This bonus credit stacks with 10% discount codes (student 10% or the targeted pre-order 10% code).
        The codes do not stack and only 1 can be used.

    • Can the Google One subscription be cancelled as soon as the order has been placed without impacting on the 10% shop credit?

      Thanks.

      • Maybe, but the 10% Google One credit only gets added to your account after 30 days.
        I would probably keep it until my credit is awarded.

        This is what is said on the receipt

        Credit earned from this purchase will be added to your account 30 days after the order has been dispatched, and can be used for the purchase of any Google Store device or accessory. It will expire 365 days after being added to your account Learn more

        • So there is a risk to be charged for 2 months of the Google One subscription. That is what I want to avoid.

          • @Xishnik: I mean you could cancel it and hope google honours it, but I think paying $25 (2x monthly fee $12.50) is worth the $100+ credit you get, assuming you will use it for something like a charger

            • +2

              @MyEducation: I went into the learn more and found this: 'The earned credit is added to your account 30 days after your purchase is dispatched and you must still be an eligible Google One plan manager at that time in order to receive the credit.'

              So it basically guarantees that you need to be subscribed for two months. Yes, it still makes sense to do it that way as the credit is great than the 2x monthly charges.

  • Any news on when Nest Wifi Pro is coming to Aus?

    • US only for now. No word on availability in other regions.

      • that really sux. i was waiting years for wifi 6 support

        • Get a Unifi U6-LITE ~$190, or a U6-PRO ~$290 if you need the extra range/bandwidth. Great wifi devices, but you need to plug it into your existing router and disable the wifi on your router

          • @MyEducation: I want Google though lol I want that constant firmware updates and ongoing new features being released on the google homes app

  • Tempted, wonder what the speakers are like tho.
    Really need to upgrade from pixel 2 basically dead now,

    • The speaker loudness (both earpiece and loud speakers) has to be improved a bit IMO - still too quiet in some situations. Nothing near as good as that on my previous Pixel 3XL or iPhones in general. To be expected with the speaker under the screen I suppose. Hopefully they fix up the finger print scanner - was nothing wrong with the hardware one on the back of the P5.

      Anyway will probably wait a minute before getting one, probably upgrade before EOFY 23 if reviews are decent and any bugs are ironed out. To be honest the P5 hasn't skipped a beat and like the smaller form factor to the bigger handsets (one handed operation, longer battery due to larger screen chewing it up, better pocket ability, doesn't bend lol).

      • Yeah I would wait but pretty badly need a new phone, ordered the 256gb pro, 10% off, 300 credit and 10% back from my google one membership was enough to push it.

        I deserve a new phone after dealing with this pixel 2 since it's release haha.

        • +1

          Sounds good if you need one.. may as well :P
          Yes that's lasted you well, pretty old now and no more updates on the pixel 3 even.

          • @G-rig: Just checked the last update on my pixel 2 was october 2020…..yikes..

            • +1

              @Willy Beamish: Yeah need to get the security updates.. will be way better speed, batter, camera etc.

              I don't upgrade all the time maybe every second one - it may be difficult to decide if i'd get the pixel 7 or 7 pro next time, I do like the smaller size (one hand operation, smaller in pocket, long battery) but assume the bigger battery would make up for the size for the pro. Not aware on other differences yet but no doubt better for watching videos etc.

              Buy Pixel 7 Pro and get a gift of A$300 Google Store credit towards your next purchase.^

              Really need that off the actual phone, not anything else from the store.. unless can return the first one in x amount of days?

              • @G-rig: There would have to be some kind of term and condition to prevent that but I plan on getting some pixel buds pro anyway.

                Sure it would be great if it was straight off the price, but as long as you have a plan for the credit it's not too bad.

                • @Willy Beamish: I usually just wait at least 6 months, then get one and do a price protection claim for 28 degrees within 12 months of purchasing it. the Pixel 3xl got down to $588 instead of $1500 (got one at the half price sale $750 from google before that before they were releasing the pixel 4).

        • What are you using the 1tb google one space for ? Shared with family ??

  • +1

    Edit: found it. Offer ends October 16, 2022 at 11:59pm AEDT. Hopefully some preliminary reviews get leaked by then.

    Anyone know how long this deal will last? When I click 'learn more' on the Google page it just bounces me.

  • Considering how pixel 6 wasn't so great, I'm thinking maybe it's best to sit back and wait for reviews to roll in, and hopefully by then there will be decent discounts around as well

    • What did you not like about your pixel 6 to find it not great?

  • +2

    Got a 10% discount code from google for registering interest and will get a $300 store credit too. I am on a pixel 3xl so I will take the risk that its good. Key thinking for me, if the finger print is still bad then has face unlock. Also has android 13 so hopefully this will fix some of the 6 issues. Bought so I will see, fingers crossed its good.

    • Where did you register your interest to get the 10% additioanl?

      • +1

        We can only use one 10% coupon per order - whether it is from Unidays or StudentEdge or direct Google sent one.

        You may DM me for Unidays code.

        • Oh cool, thanks for that. I already have access to Unidays. Appreciate your help.

          • +1

            @mr chow: The other way to save another 10% is by subscribing to 2TB Google One storage plan.

        • Can you pls DM the Unidays 10% coupon code.

    • Bear in mind that face unlock is just unlock, its not bio metric authentication meaning you cant authorise using it within banking apps etc

      • Useless, sounds like they are a few years behind apple still. Nothing wrong with the pixel 5 f
        Hardware fingerprint unlock .

        Plus it sounds like someone could hold up a picture of you and it would unlock.

  • +1

    Can I use the credit to purchase another Google Phone?

    • sure

    • Would be good if you could use the $250 for the second phone and return the first one. Better and Easier to just get a cash discount to start with

      • +1

        Just wait for jbhifi bonus trade in starting on the 13th.

        • Did just that and 220$ trade in for pixel 5.
          Still waiting for the bonus coupons for the Google TV and hub gen 2, and $100 gift card

  • +3

    Just letting everyone know that I did not receive 10% discount code in email but I was able to get it through chat on Google store website. So simply go on chat and request one, they only ask you to sign up for their news and updates via email.

    • Thanks, mate! Did the same thing and got a 10% discount code. Cheers

    • I just tried to request a discount code from Google chat and was told they cannot manually generate one. Does anyone have a spare discount code willing to share? Thank you

  • Thanks, i have spoken to chat and obtained a code and it isnt working for me so trying to export OZB alternatives.

  • Hey guys, anyone able to share a 10 percent discount code please?

  • When do we receive the $300 credit? I ordered on Sunday and got the dispatched update today but no sign of the $300 yet.

    • Google Store credit is added to their account approximately 24 hours after the entire order ships

      Above the footer on https://store.google.com/?hl=en-GB.

      • Yes I read that but I wasn't sure if shipping means when it's dispatched or when it's delivered.

        Turns out it's the same day it's dispatched. I received the credit shortly after I got the dispatch update.

    • My code arrived a couple hours ago, phone shipped out today. Used it to purchase the 4g pixel watch. I also recently received a 15% off coupon for being a local guide (lvl 6) that couldn't be used towards the Pixel phone unfortunately. In the end:
      Pixel 7 Pro, $1,169 using 10% student code
      4g Pixel Watch, $251 using local guide discount & $300 Google store credit

      1-2 week wait for the watch

      • Why didn't you wait 30 days for the 10% Google one credit to arrive?

        • Good question, no acceptable answer other than I don't have Google One

  • Phone shipped yesterday, received code yesterday and received phone today!

    • How is it, find any bugs yet? :D

      • not yet opened. planning to bring out to claim trs. The google tax invoice is split into 2 documents, 1st one being the discount, 2nd being the phone (full price). Anyone claimed before knows if we can just claim the full price?

  • +1

    Received mine today too, seems good. Only part way through the setup but the good news is that the finger print scanner seems very fast and accurate so far (7 Pro).

    The polished aluminium frame on the Pro looks shitty tho IMO, would much rather the satin anodising on the normal 7.
