- The Google Pixel 10 is now selling for its lowest ever price in the US, at a $200 reduction
- This same reduction isn’t currently available in the UK or Australia
- The Google Pixel 10 series as a whole is selling very well
The Google Pixel 10 is one of the best Android phones you can buy, and there’s never been a better time to do so, because right now, it’s down to just $599 at Amazon in the US. That’s for a 128GB model and is a $200 reduction on the standard price.
Considering the Pixel 10 only launched back in August, that’s a notable drop, and it’s the cheapest price we’ve seen for the phone so far. Sadly, you won’t find the same discount in the UK or Australia, where the Pixel 10 still sells for its full $799 / AU$1,349 price. Mind you, even at that price, it’s well worth considering.
Our four-star Google Pixel 10 review praised its 6.3-inch 120Hz OLED screen, calling it “one of the best smartphone displays you’ll see”, and we were also big fans of its “crisp and colorful” interface, its “stellar” design, and its triple-lens camera, which includes a 48MP main sensor, a 13MP ultra-wide, and a 10.8MP telephoto, offering 5x optical zoom.
Selling well even without a price cut
It also seems that people have taken notice of how good this phone – and the rest of the Google Pixel 10 series – is, as Counterpoint reports that Google’s Pixel series sales jumped 28% year-on-year in the US in September.
That makes for a single-month sales record for Google’s phones, and that growth was mostly driven by the Pixel 10 series.
As Counterpoint notes, this was all the more impressive since the iPhone 17 series launched in September, giving Google’s phones some serious competition.
Compared to other brands, this increase means the Pixel line’s market share at Verizon for phones costing $600 or more rose from just 0.1% in September of 2022 to 7% in September of this year. It similarly rose from 0.1% at T-Mobile to 6.5% this September.
Those numbers still might not sound massive, but it’s a big improvement for Google, and with Samsung only having a 12% share at Verizon, it’s possible that, in a few years, Google could be second only to Apple in this segment of the market.
All of which makes it seem a little strange that the Pixel 10’s price has dropped so much so soon, but perhaps this reduced price will help the brand maintain its sales momentum.
