We’re only a couple of weeks removed from Google I/O, where the tech giant gave us a glimpse of all the fun Gemini AI features coming to Android, Chrome, and its web products. Now, it’s giving you a chance to save big money on the devices that are guaranteed to take full advantage of them. One of the biggest highlights from Google’s summer sale saves you 50 percent on an unlocked Pixel 8A when you buy a Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, or Pixel Fold.

That would bring the Pixel 8A down to just $249.50 for the 128GB model or $279.50 for the 512GB model from Google. Just add both devices to your cart, and the discount will apply automatically. As an added bonus, Google will throw in a $50 store credit with any Pixel 8A purchase. It’s a great opportunity to spring for upgrades for your partner or family, even if you end up getting stuck with the lesser model, which is wholly capable of offering the essential Android experience.

Even better, you still get the built-in discounts currently going on those other devices, including the base 128GB Pixel 8 that’s down to $549 ($150 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and from Google, only $50 more than the record price. The Pixel 8 Pro is also matching its all-time low of $749 ($250 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google, and the bendable Pixel Fold is $500 off right now for the base 256GB model at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google, bringing it down to $1,299 and matching the lowest price we’ve seen so far.

The Pixel 8 comes with just a couple of key upgrades over the Pixel 7, and it misses out on several higher-end features on the 8 Pro, like a telephoto lens. But its combination of price, features, and the promise of seven years of OS updates makes it one of the best mainstream Android phones. Read our review.

The Pixel 8 Pro offers some solid upgrades over the standard Pixel 8, including a 5x telephoto lens, a bigger 6.7-inch screen, and the promise of more on-device AI capabilities in the near future. Read our review.

The Pixel Watch 2 offers great upgrades over the original, including an improved battery life that lasts all day, faster charging, and a more comprehensive suite of fitness and health tracking. You can pick up the Wi-Fi model on sale right now for $289.99 ($60 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and via Google’s store, or get the Wear OS watch with LTE connectivity starting around $319.99 ($90 off) at Amazon.

If those still don’t fit in your budget but you’re curious about Google’s wearables, the original Pixel Watch comes in significantly lower, starting at $179.99 ($100 off) for the Wi-Fi model at Amazon, Best Buy, and from Google or $229.99 ($100 off) for one with LTE at Amazon and Google. We weren’t super jazzed about the original Pixel Watch when we reviewed it at launch nearly two years ago since its battery life and GPS were particularly troublesome. But at this price, it can be a great Fitbit alternative if you like the platform but don’t care for the fitness bands.

Speaking of which, you can pick up a number of discounted Fitbit watches, too, such as the Fitbit Charge 6, which we think is the best one you can buy. It’s down to around $139.95 ($20 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google.

In case you haven’t heard, you can now buy the Pixel Tablet without its speaker dock. The new SKU launched in May for $399, but it’s now as low as $319 ($80 off) for the 128GB configuration from Google, which is a new all-time low price.

You can also still get the Tensor G2 tablet bundled with its magnetic charging speaker dock in a matching color starting at $419 ($80 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and from Google, which is only $20 more than the all-time low. When docked, playback automatically comes through the speaker without any wires or fiddling around with software toggles.

Google’s 11-inch Pixel Tablet uses the same Tensor G2 chip found in the Pixel 7 lineup. It also comes with a magnetic charging dock so you can use it as a de facto smart display. Read our review.

If you’re looking for some affordable earbuds to discretely enjoy your summer playlist, the Pixel Buds Pro are still at the all-time low $139.99 mark they recently hit, which saves you $60. You’ll find that deal at Amazon, Best Buy, and directly from Google.

The Pixel Buds Pro added solid active noise cancellation compared to the last-gen pair while retaining decent sound quality, although we felt the transparency mode was lacking and would have appreciated a better microphone for calls. You can also save a bit on the less remarkable (but still good for the money) Pixel Buds A-Series, which are currently starting around $79 ($20 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google.

Google’s Pixel Buds Pro are the company’s first earbuds to include active noise cancellation. They also combine impressive sound, great battery life, and good comfort — all without the connection issues of earlier models. Read our review.
