If I were writing out a shopping list for my next phone, then I'd include excellent performance, industry-leading cameras, AI features that are actually helpful, and battery life that can be relied on. And with the Galaxy S26 series still weeks away, one such phone that ticks all the boxes – and is currently discounted – is the Google Pixel 10 Pro at Amazon for $799 (was $999).

That's just $50 more than the Black Friday price, and likely the best deal you'll see on the four-star smartphone for a while.

Google's latest Pro phone boasts industry-leading specs and Pixel camera technology that we rate extremely highly. Then there are the AI features that show Google is leaving Apple in its wake. This is the best discount we've seen on the Pixel 10 Pro since Black Friday, so it's one worth snapping up if you don't want to wait around for the rumored Samsung Galaxy S26 launch later this month.

Our Google Pixel 10 Pro review was carried out by our Senior Editor, Philip Berne, who concluded that the phone "is a fantastic addition to the Pixel line, with useful new features like magnetic charging and AI tools that are helpful and not overbearing."

Regarding specs, the Pixel 10 Pro is impressively equipped with Google’s Tensor G5 chipset and 12GB of RAM – that's more than enough to breeze through most on-device AI processing. In terms of design, Google has decided to stick very closely to the aesthetic they nailed with the Pixel 9 Pro.

Then there's the camera system with a lineup that features a 48MP wide, a 13MP ultra-wide, and a 10.8MP zoom. This is a long way off the new 200MP resolution phones that have been released these past few months, but if it's quality of output you're after, then you can't fault the Pixel 10 Pro.

A saving of $200 off a flagship phone is not to be sniffed at, but it won't be for everyone. If you're undecided, take some time to shop around using our guides to the best phones and best camera phones.
