Google’s Black Friday sale has kicked off with sizable discounts on Pixel phones, wearables, earbuds, tablets, smart home gear, and more.
You’ll notice the base 128GB Pixel 9 is down to $649 ($150 off) at Google and Best Buy, for example. But some colors of the flagship Tensor G4 smartphone are actually even cheaper in Amazon’s Black Friday sale right now, with its porcelain and peony pink models going for $548.98 there. That’s beating the all-time low by a significant margin of about $49.

Google’s new Pixel 9 has a slightly larger 6.3-inch OLED display than its predecessor, along with a new Tensor G4 processor, a bigger battery, 12GB of RAM, and a dual rear camera setup with a new 48-megapixel sensor for its ultrawide. Read our review.
The Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL — which have larger screens, bigger batteries, more cameras, and more RAM compared to the Pixel 9 — are also $150 off at Google, starting at $849 and $949 for their base 128GB configuration. Again, you’d probably rather grab get the Pixel 9 Pro from Amazon and Best Buy, where you can find the Pixel 9 Pro for starting at an all-time low $799 ($200 off) or the Pixel 9 Pro XL at Amazon for $934.13.

The Pixel 9 Pro is available in a smaller size than Google’s previous pro-grade phones. It has the latest Tensor processor, a 6.3-inch OLED screen, a triple-camera setup like previous models, and a new 42-megapixel front camera.
The Pixel 9 Pro Fold, meanwhile, is $300 off and matching its record low at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google. That doesn’t make the resulting $1,499 price for the starting 256GB model any less harsh, but it helps if your heart is set on foldables.
The Google Pixel Tablet on its own is down to a new all-time low price of $279 ($120 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google for a 128GB model, or $359 for 256GB at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google. You can also get the 256GB model bundled with a speaker dock for $459 ($140 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google. While we think it could use a bit more versatility as a portable home hub of sorts, it’s hard to find a better Android tablet at this price.

Google’s 11-inch Pixel Tablet uses the same Tensor G2 chip found in the Pixel 7 lineup. It’s also available with a magnetic charging dock so you can use it as a de facto smart display. Read our review.
If it’s a smartwatch you’re after, we think the Pixel Watch 3 is the first one in its line that fully embodies what the flagship wearable should be, and Bluetooth / Wi-Fi models are matching the all-time low as much as $70 off. That brings the 41mm size down to $279.99 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google, while the bigger 45mm version drops to $329.99 at Amazon and Google.
The LTE version is $100 off, bringing the connected 41mm watch down to $349.99 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google. The same discount applies to the 45mm LTE model ($399.99 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Google), though Amazon is currently beating the record price specifically on the matte black version with an obsidian band, down to $379.97 right now (about $120 off).
