Much like we saw with this morning’s offer on the Pixel Tablet, there are now some even lower prices available on its latest Pixel 8 and 8 Pro smartphones. The ongoing summer deals are indeed available at both Best Buy and Amazon, with the unlocked Pixel 8 starting at $549.99 from the regular $699, and the Pixel 8 Pro now kicking-off at $749 from the usual $999, but Best Buy is now offering some even lower-priced options. Not only can you save an additional $100 if you purchase the unlocked device and get it hooked up with a carrier during the checkout process, but its “excellent” condition open-box listings are serving up some deep deals on Google’s latest as well – some of the best in fact. Head below for a breakdown of the deals.
The real value on the open-box Best Buy listings are with the Excellent condition Obsidian models highlighted below. You’re looking at up to $422 in savings and some of the lowest prices we have ever tracked on Google’s latest flagship smartphones.
- Pixel 8 128GB Obsidian $412 (Reg. $699, Open-Box)
- Full 1-year warranty
- Additional color options here
- Pixel 8 Pro 128GB Obsidian $577 (Reg. $999, Open-Box)
- Full 1-year warranty
- Additional color options here
More details on Best Buy’s open-box units:
This is an Open Box product, which means it’s been opened and returned by another customer. We offer the same Returns and Exchange Promise for Open Box products as our new-in-box products. Full 1-year warranty.
One thing to keep in mind here, is that if you opt for the straight up new listings, you can also add the new entry-level Pixel 8a to your cart at 50% off – look for the “Hot offer Save 50% on Pixel 8a with Add” link on this listing page. This is arguably the best overall value you’ll find for the 8a, but only if you need two (or are linking up with a friend to make this happen). Otherwise, you can score the Google Pixel 8a for $499 with a FREE $50 Amazon gift card thrown in.
The new Pixel 8 Pro landed for the first time last fall as Google latest flagship handset. So unless you’re definitely going to want to pay a whole lot for the new devices later this year, these pre-summer price drops are certainly worth consideration. Powered by the Tensor G3 chip to enable Google’s AI tech, you’ll also find the 6.7-inch Super Actua display, Pixel’s “best pro camera yet,” and an adaptive battery that can last over “24 hours” – engage Extreme Battery Saver for “up to 72 hours.”

The triple camera system includes a dedicated 5x telephoto lens, improved autofocus, and full-resolution photography with Pro controls. And the all-day battery charges faster than ever.
