And if you don’t mind parting with your current phone, you can also receive up to $760 in trade-in credit for eligible devices.

Another perk you’ll get when you preorder your new Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL or Pixel 9 Pro Fold is a year of Gemini Advanced for free, a value of $240.

While there are no direct discounts on the updated Pixel 9 lineup, right now when you preorder your Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro or Pixel 9 Pro XL from Best Buy the retailer will throw in a gift card to be used on a future purchase. The base model Pixel 9 will score you a gift card worth $100, while the 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL will score you a $200 gift card. For those that go for the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, you’ll get a free $350 gift card with your purchase. You’ll also get three months of Google One 100GB storage if you’re a new subscriber. 

And if you’re willing to part with an older device, you can get up to $1,099 in trade-in savings through Best Buy’s own trade-in program, though most phones will bring in significantly less than that, so be sure to check your particular model to get a better idea of how much credit you can expect. 

Amazon is offering a $100 gift card with preorders of the Pixel 9 or a $200 gift card with preorders of the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL while supplies last. 

There is also an option for a $350 gift card with the purchase of the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, but it is currently unavailable. We’ll be watching to see if and when the retailer brings this offer back online.

Right now at Target you can get a $100 gift card with your purchase of the base Google Pixel 9 or a $200 gift card when you purchase a Google Pixel 9 Pro XL. You can also grab the Pixel 9 Pro, and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is set to be available soon. However, those two models do not come with a bonus gift card.
