I'm on the hunt for this phone.

I want to get it less than $650.

Last year I managed to get the 7 for $469 but it hasn't been anywhere near that price best being $631 in September which I thought black Friday would be cheaper or at least on par but wasn't even close.

I got $1000 worth of Amazon gift card vouchers at a 10% discount so have a bit of money to play with there at 10% less but a lot of theirs are us, UK or European models.

Any suggestions?
Doesn't have to be from Amazon.

Also anyone gone down the refurbished route? There are a lot of retailers offering the excellent condition very good and good etc but would rather new.

Any help would be appreciated.

  What’s so good about the pixel 8 that you need to upgrade your 7

    Nothing really that I can see.
    However I have held onto an LG 30+ for at least 4 years now and really due to for an upgrade so I'll get her old one and she'll get the new one.

  How about the Pixel 8A?

    Apparently it's basically the same as the 7.
    So I don't see the point, plus I missed out on those specials on black friday so hardly see the point now!

      Well, the 8A is basically the same as the 8, which is not much different to the 7, so yes. But you just said it is to replace LG30+.

      What difference do you care about between any of them?

        That's true, it's unfortunate that I can't go back in time to the black Friday deal.

        +1

        Decided to go for the 7 pro as it seems generally better than the 8.
        It is also a good price at Amazon with my 10% off vouchers.
