It may be a few years old at this point, but the Google Pixel 7 Pro is still a good investment given it currently costs less than some of the best budget phones on the market. Right now, you can pick up an unlocked 7 Pro for $199.99 with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage at Best Buy. That’s the lowest price we’ve seen on the last-gen smartphone, which initially launched at $999.
The Pixel 9 Pro is a better phone, but Best Buy’s latest Google promo is still an excellent deal on a smartphone with flagship specs that typically costs considerably more. For just $200, you get a 6.7-inch screen with a speedy 120Hz refresh rate and an impressive triple camera array, one that includes a 48-megapixel telephoto lens. The last-gen smartphone also offers all-day battery life and a robust IP68 rating for water and dust resistance, along with a handful of Pixel-exclusive features, including spam call blocking and the transcribing Recorder app.
There are some caveats to bear in mind, though. The Pixel 7 Pro doesn’t offer some of the AI camera tricks found on Google’s newer phones, and it runs on Google’s slower (yet still snappy enough) Tensor G2 chipset. The Pixel 7 Pro isn’t guaranteed to receive OS and security updates after October 2027, either, whereas buying a newer phone will get you a few years more. If extended peace of mind isn’t all that important to you, though, you’ll likely be happy with the Pixel 7 Pro at this price.
