Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL: How to buy Google’s latest smartphones

Google finally unveiled the new Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL — the company’s latest and greatest set of smartphones, featuring an upgraded processor and improved internals, a new design, and more.

Now that the new phones are out, you might be wondering how you can get your hands on them for yourself. The phones are available in a few different colors, including “just black,” “clearly white,” and “not pink.” In case you’re wondering how to get the Google Pixel 3 or Google Pixel 3 XL for yourself, we put together this guide.

Unlocked

As you might expect, the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are both now available for purchase unlocked through the Google Store. Here’s a rundown of Pixel 3 unlocked pricing.

• 64GB Google Pixel 3: $800 or $33.29 per month for 24 months with Google Store financing
• 128GB Google Pixel 3: $900 or $37.46 per month for 24 months with Google Store financing
• 64GB Google Pixel 3 XL: $900 or $37.46 per month for 24 months with Google Store financing
• 128GB Google Pixel 3 XL: $1,000 or $41.63 per month for 24 months with Google Store financing

The unlocked version of the phone is compatible with all major carriers — so if you’re on T-Mobile, Sprint, or AT&T, that’s how you’ll have to get the phones, considering the fact that they’re exclusive to Verizon.

Carriers

As mentioned, the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are exclusively available on Verizon, meaning that you won’t be able to get them through any other carrier except Google’s own Project Fi.

T-Mobile

While the Google Pixel 3 was exclusive to Verizon at launch, the phone is now also available on T-Mobile. Pricing for the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL can be found below.

• 64GB Google Pixel 3: $800, or $30 per month for 24 months with $80 down.
• 64GB Google Pixel 3 XL: $900, or $30 per month for 24 months with $180 down.

Visible

The Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are coming to Visible. If you own a Pixel 3 device, you can now bring it to Visible to use on the $40-per-month carrier. Not only that, but if you bring your Pixel to Visible and activate a new line, you’ll get a $100 prepaid Mastercard Virtual Account.

Verizon

The Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are now available straight through the Verizon website or in a Verizon store, so if you’re a Verizon customer or willing to make the switch, then you can pull the trigger now.

Here’s a rundown of pricing for the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL on Verizon.

Google Project Fi

As you would expect, the Google Pixel 3 is also available through Google’s own Project Fi, and it’s available for the same price as it is unlocked — so you’ll save a few bucks through Google compared to through Verizon. When it comes to deals, Project Fi is also offering a $799 service credit when you buy two Pixel 3 or Pixel 3 XL phones and add a new member to an existing group plan.
