The best Google deals of Black Friday 2018: Google Home Hub, Pixel 3

The Pixel 3 was just released last month, but if you waited until November to buy one, you’ll be rewarded with up to a $200 price cut. Additionally, for Black Friday and Cyber Monday this year, Google’s sales will also center on accessories for the home, including the new Google Home Hub, Nest devices, and Chromecast dongles. While the newly announced Pixel Slate will not receive a discount, there are some deals on laptops like the Pixelbook and Chromebooks.

Here’s a look at what you can expect to save on at the Google Store and beyond.

The best Google product to buy on Black Friday

Google Home Hub, the company’s inevitable Google Assistant on a screen, is one of the better deals from Google this season. At $99, that $50 savings makes it officially cheaper than the retail price of display-less Google Home speaker.

That doesn’t mean the Pixel 3 isn’t going on sale at all… just don’t expect the usual BOGO deals like you would get with Samsung phones. Instead, starting on November 18th, Google will offer a buy one, get the second phone for half off for Pixel 3 devices. Then, on November 22nd, Google’s discounting the Pixel 3 and 3 XL down to $649 and $699, respectively — which is a savings of $150 for the smaller device and $200 for the larger one. On Cyber Monday, the phones will go back to their original retail prices, but you’ll get a free Google Home Hub and a $50 credit to spend on the Google Store. That’s not the best deal, but it could be ideal if you’re already interested in the smart display and you were planning to buy a phone case for your Pixel anyway.

Lastly, it looks like Google’s clearing up some inventory from last year’s hardware event, too. The Google Clips camera (remember that?) is getting a price cut from $250 down to $125, and the Pixel Buds are now $109, down from $159. With plenty of Google products under $50, now’s a good time to snag presents ahead of the holidays.
