We might be hearing about new Samsung phones in Galaxy Unpacked 2025 later today, but I'm more excited about this Pixel phone deal. The Google Pixel 8a is one of the best phones we've tested and incredible value for money, and this Amazon deal just made it even cheaper.

Right now, you can get the Google Pixel 8a for $399 at Amazon. This is $100 off and the lowest price I've seen for the phone unlocked. In short, this is a total steal.
