I want to get a Pixel 8. Here it costs 800€, and only today because it is 11/11 a popular provider offers a 22% off, being 623 the end price. Do you know if they get a bigger discount on Black Friday or is this a very good offer? Thanks.

    I got the pixel 8. If you plan to keep your phone for 7 years, you might as well get the one that is overpowered now, because in a few years it will perform better than anything else you can buy now.

    Also, likely not a very good idea but I’ll put it out here if someone can confirm whether it’s legit: there seems to be a Singles Day on Aliexpress right now and they’re selling the Pixel 7a for €339 (after using their promo code). The major catch though is that those are US, Taiwanese or Japanese units, so probably there will be a difference in phone signal strength as the bands are likely not the same as in Europe.

    Since you mentioned in another comment that you’re sensitive to the price, another good option would be to look at the used market as sometimes you can find very good deals. For example, right now there’s an auction on Ebay for a Pixel 7a that seems to be in very good condition and which ends tomorrow and right now they’re at €299: https://www.ebay.de/itm/386256899286 . I haven’t searched that much and you probably can find even better deals.

    It’s good, you get for as cheaper and reasonable timed. also, patience is not waiting for a certain moment of time but to accept your current status for the moment that when the good opportunities appear, then you are prepared to take advantage of the good times.
