At a time when the iPhone 15 Pro still costs well over £1,000, the Google Pixel 9 Pro, one of its key rivals, stands out as a bit of a bargain. Android fans already know they're usually getting a lot more for their money, but the deal we've spotted on Google's current flagship is absolutely amazing. It's a special offer being pushed by a handful of online retailers, but the best place to buy looks to be Amazon. It's available in Hazel or this black "Obsidian" colour | Amazon Because the 30% saving brings the SIM-free handset down to £699, rather than its RRP price of £999. That's getting on for half the price of the iPhone 15 Pro, and it's the lowest price the Pixel 9 Pro has ever been sold at. Amazon looks to be the best place to buy the phone from for two reasons; firstly it's possible to get next-day delivery if you're a Prime member, and Amazon's returns system is so good. Also, the retail giant is offering a £50 coupon towards a set of Pixel Buds 2, which are a perfect companion to the Pixel phone. The £699 offer price is for the 128gb model, in Hazel or Obsidian. There are pink and white versions available on Amazon, but they're used. There are savings on the 256gb model and the 512gb version too and, while they're not quite 30% off, they are very attractive.

Right now, you can grab the 512GB Google Pixel 9 Pro for $919 from Amazon, which means an overall discount of 25% over the usual $1,219 price. However, if you want to save a bit more cash, then you can instead get the 128GB version for $799 from Amazon or the 256GB version for $849. Finally, if you want the most storage possible, then you can grab the 1TB version for $1,149 from Amazon, which is an impressive 21% discount. In our Pixel 9 Pro review, we said the Pixel 09 Pro was "almost magical" and a look at the specs will show why. The phone features a 6.3-inch OLED display, the reasonably powerful Tensor G4 chips, 16GB of RAM and a slew of different storage options to fit your taste. For those shutterbugs out there, the Pixel 9 Pro has an awesome camera setup with 50MP wide (f/1.68), 48MP ultrawide (f/1.7) and 48MP 5x telephoto (f/2.8) lenses, as well as a 42MP selfie (f/2.2) cam. Other deals include: 128GB for $799256GB for $8491TB for $1,149 When we first reviewed the Google Pixel 9 Pro, we had a lot to praise about the device, from its super bright display and sleek compact design to the pretty outstanding battery life. Google has also equipped the phone with a pretty stellar camera setup, with a 50MP main camera, a 48MP Ultrawide, a 48MP telephoto lens with 5x zoom and a 42MP selfie camera. Some might complain that Google's Tensor G4 chip isn't all that powerful compared to other devices. However, we listed the Pixel 9 Pro as the smartest device in our best phones list because it has been designed to get the most out of AI. Compared to the constantly struggling Apple Intelligence, the Google Pixel Pro offers some of the best AI experiences on the market, including access to Gemini Live, as well as a host of AI features like Pixel Studio. The Pixel 9 Pro is the ideal phone for someone looking for a flagship phone that doesn't doesn't break the bank. This deal makes the phone even more tempting, and is one that any shopper looking for a discount should consider.
