There are plenty of holiday promotions on phones that can get you a good deal, but oftentimes they require a trade-in or force you into committing to a length service agreement. That’s why I’m loving Amazon’s Pixel 10 deal, which doesn’t just bring it down to its lowest price, but it’s even better than the deals I saw for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Right now, you can land yourself an unlocked version of the Pixel 10 for $549 plus tax. That comes out to a 31% off discount, down from its original $799 cost. What makes this deal even better is that it’s from Amazon. Meaning, you just pay that price, and it’s all yours.
Beyond the no-fuss offer Amazon’s giving with this unlocked phone, I mention how the addition of a triple camera makes for a much more substantial upgrade in years past. In my Pixel 10 review, I explain how it has a bigger advantage with its new 10.5MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom against rivals like the Samsung Galaxy S25 and iPhone 17.
With the latter, my Pixel 10 vs iPhone 17 zoom camera shoot-out exposes how much of a difference this telephoto camera makes against Apple’s newest phone. But beyond the zoom, I also love how it comes packed with some of my favorite AI-assisted photo editing tools. For example, you’ll look like a pro making complex photo edits with the help of Ask Photos.
It’s running Android 16 out of the box, but the best part is how Google continues to prove it’s one of the best AI phones out there. Some of its new AI features include Magic Cue, which proactively makes recommendations based on what I’m doing with the phone, Voice Translate, which makes phone conversations in other languages a breeze, and all of the new stuff with Gemini — like being able to create videos with Veo 3.
I can go on and on about why I love the Pixel 10. Considering how it normally costs $799, this $250 instant discount makes it even better. You’ll make good use out of this best phone contender because of Google’s pledge of 7 years worth of major Android and security updates.
