If your current phone is giving 'dying battery' energy, Amazon’s October sale has some major Ws for you. Google’s latest Pixel 11 Pro and Pro XL are seeing price cuts of $250 or more, and honestly, the math is mathing in our favor right now.
Here is the tea on the pricing: The base Pixel 11 Pro with 256GB of storage is down to $849—that’s a $250 discount from the usual $1,099. If you’re eyeing the Pro XL, you can snag the 256GB model for $999, which is a $300 price break. Even the standard Pixel 11 (256GB) got a glow-up, dropping $150 to land at $749.
Why it's a move
Right now, the price gap between the standard Pixel 11 and the Pro is only $100 instead of the usual $200. When you consider the Pro’s superior camera system, it’s basically a no-brainer to upgrade. We’ve been obsessing over the new camera modes and the Magic Capture feature, which are highkey impressive. Some of the AI-powered Gemini features like 'Rambler'—which cleans up your voice-to-text mess—are super convenient, though other 'proactive' AI stuff can be hit or miss.
Why it matters
We're always skeptical of hype, but a $300 discount on a top-tier flagship device is a genuine win. If you’ve been waiting for a reason to ditch your laggy phone, this sale is a solid excuse to pull the trigger.
