SAVE $200: As of March 3, the Google Pixel 9 (Unlocked, 128GB) is available for $599 at Amazon. That’s down from $799, a 25% discount on list price.
I wasn't planning on upgrading my phone today, but then I saw that Amazon dropped the Google Pixel 9 (Unlocked, 128GB) to $599. That's a $200 discount, which is rare for a brand-new flagship device. If you've been eyeing Google's latest AI-powered phone, this might be the perfect time to grab it.
I've tested enough phones to know that not all flagships are created equal. The Pixel 9 stands out because of Google's Gemini AI, which does some seriously cool stuff like editing photos with Magic Editor, rewriting backgrounds, and even making sure everyone in a group photo looks their best with Best Take. The 50MP main camera and 48MP ultrawide sensor make sure your photos always come out crisp, and if you like getting up close, the Macro Focus mode is a nice touch.
Nobody likes a phone that dies before dinner. Google claims the Pixel 9 lasts 24 hours on a charge, and if you use Extreme Battery Saver, you can stretch that to 72 hours. Under the hood, you're getting 12GB of RAM and a 3.1GHz processor, which means it should handle just about anything you throw at it.
Here's everything that matters about this deal:
Price: $599 (Was $799)
Retailer: Amazon
Display: 6.3-inch Actua, 120Hz refresh rate
Processor: 3.1GHz
RAM: 12GB
Storage: 128GB
Cameras: 50MP main, 48MP ultrawide
Battery: 24-hour battery, up to 72 hours with Extreme Battery Saver
AI Features: Gemini AI, Magic Editor, Best Take
Connectivity: Unlocked (works with major carriers)
One of my biggest pet peeves with budget phones is the sluggish screen. The Pixel 9's 6.3-inch Actua display refreshes at 120Hz, so scrolling feels smooth, and everything looks crisp. Whether you're gaming, watching videos, or just doom-scrolling, it's a big step up from older models.
A flagship phone for $599 is a wild deal, especially since it comes unlocked, so you can use it with Google Fi, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and more. If you've been thinking about upgrading, now's a good time to do it before the price jumps back up.
