Although the Pixel 7 series is no longer Google’s latest line of phones, that doesn’t mean they aren’t still worth buying. We’ve found both the 7 and 7 Pro to be among the best Android phones you can buy. With the debut of the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro last October, the Pixel 7 series have become a little scarce, as have the deals. Still, we’ve scoured the internet to find the best discounts. Many of the offers come in the form of trade-in value with bonuses like smartwatch savings.
The Pixel 7 series offers some serious improvements over the 2021 Pixel 6 phones. Both the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro come with the second-gen Tensor chip, so you get a lot more power and efficiency, with battery life remaining relatively the same, even though you’re getting more performance out of the phones.
