Amazon is throwing in a free $100 gift card with the Pixel 8a right now - a superb value
Who can resist an Amazon gift card?
The Google Pixel 8a is shaping up to be a superb mid-range flagship and you can buy it with a very cool bonus bundled in. Right now, the Google Pixel 8a at Amazon is $499 with a $100 Amazon gift card included (was $599). With Amazon seemingly selling everything you could ever want, it’s particularly nice to effectively have $100 free to spend there.
Only announced a matter of days ago, the Google Pixel 8a was a little overlooked due to being announced the same day as the iPad Pro (2024) and iPad Air (2024) but it’s a worthy inclusion to the Google Pixel arsenal. Due to being so new, we haven’t seen any discounts making this one particularly special.
It’s too early to say if the Google Pixel 8a will end up up one our shortlist of the best Android phones since we're still in the process of reviewing the device. Early impressions are positive, however, and we're confident in recommending it as decent mid-range option for those interested in its suite of AI features.
