This thread is for the purpose of only discussing and informing other members of the best deal you have found for pixel XL.
Please don't discuss any other topic try to keep it clutter free and to the point, perhaps help someone save a few pounds.
I've preordered from cpw, Google and EE direct.
This is the deal I got as an upgrade from EE, not sure if it's good or not but I feel it is:
Pixel XL black 128gb
£39 x 24 unlimited mins and SMS with 1gb data. 100 upfront on handset. Total cost £1036.00. Expected to arrive on the 20th.

Best buy was offering a $100 best buy gift card and a free chromecast with pre order..... With Verizon wireless activation. Lol.

I believe so. And there could be more fine print. That was just over the phone. And he took a looooong pause before he said with Verizon. Activation. Lol.

There is of course the offer of a free daydream headset if you pre-order through Google store or project fi.
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

Which the free daydream is an $80 value through google. And best buys offer is $135 value. Minus Verizon sign up which is a forever debt. Lol. $80 daydream is worth it to me. As long as we are first to get it and don't have to wait forever when released.

went on bestbuy to check out their offer.
what I saw:
if you buy it 'retail' its $799 and only comes with a free chromecast, no $100 card.
if you finance it for $31/mo for 24 months, you then get the $100 BB card and the chromecast total cost of payments: $744
they also offer it for $299 with a 2 year contract, that also comes with the $100 card and chromecast.

Is the free daydream promotion still available? I didn't see anything on the play store for that and I haven't received a code by email yet.

Last I read was any pixel phone pre ordered through google. So as long as ordered before launch on 10/20. It took a day or 2 before I got the email. And Im sire they are busy. And the official promo code won't go out until after orders ship, within 4 weeks.

Should be in effect still, provided of course you can actually order one before the 20th on the google store.
So there is no confusion, I have attached the email I got regarding the free daydream.

You're supposed to receive the code after the device is activated.

*Offer applies to redemption of one Daydream View device with the pre-order of a Pixel device on the Google Store in the U.S. starting from 10/4/2016 and available while supplies last.

I ordered my 128gb yesterday. Got an email from Google today saying to expect the promo code for the daydream.
Thanks for being one of the first to order Pixel, a phone by Google. Because you made your purchase during the pre-order period, you're eligible to receive the new Daydream View virtual reality headset on us.
Within approximately four weeks of your phone shipping, you will receive a promo code via email which you can use to redeem your Daydream View on Google Store, as long as you didn't cancel your order or return your Pixel phone. Full terms of the promotion can be found below.*
Get ready to experience high-quality, immersive VR with your Pixel and Daydream View.
Sincerely,
The Google Store Team

Best Buy currently has a $200 gift card for a new line of service:
Receive a FREE $200 Best Buy Gift Card with a Monthly Installment Billing purchase and activation of select Smartphones with Verizon Wireless.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/promo/verizon-smartphones-evn4314
For a pre-order the website indicates you also get the Chromecast, which would come with a $100 gift card if you already have Verizon and don't want a new line:
Receive a FREE $100 Best Buy Gift Card with purchase and activation of a Google Pixel, or Google Pixel XL.
If you wait until the phone releases you may be able to get $25, rather than a Chromecast:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/clp/my-best-buy-mobile/pcmcat748300506854.c?id=pcmcat74830050685
Although I like root for Tasker, I'm not sure it's worth giving up automatic updates and roughly $175 after accounting for part of a month's service at Verizon. Of course if I start considering the financial aspect, then iPhone 7 resale values come into play. I'll probably wait to see it in person before deciding if I want $225 in Best Buy gift cards.
EDIT: Previously the Best Buy gift cards were noted to end in November, but currently the website reads "Offer ends: 10/23/2016".

I got a receipt in the US Pre-order on the google store... confused...

I see that you'd like to receive a promotional code for a DayDream, on a pre-order. I've found that the Promotional offer is launched only in US. I wish I could send one to you right away.
I'll take this as a feedback and put it forward to our store team, so that they can come up with these offers in Canadian Google Store too.*You can leave us a feedback too, on the Store page. It is accessed by our Store team and they’ll work on it.

I keep forgetting sarcasm doesn't translate well o Americans, lol.
He's just getting across the point that while you guys get all sort of incentives from Google to buy their products, they offer people outside of the US nothing at all. ?

[Q] google play credit

so obviously the google play pre orders havent even shipped yet while others are getting theirs from other vendors. i just want to know to the people who received their tablets if they got the $25 google store credit. people were saying it should be loaded onto your account when activating the tablet for the first time while others are saying its only for google play pre orders. if it doesnt matter and everyone gets it, im gonna cancel my order and try to get it at gamestop
You get it with gamestop, too.
The problem with getting from gamestop is you can't just walk in and buy it. You can order it in for wave 2 which comes in a couple weeks.

some people in the other thread were saying they just went to the store and bought it without preordering so im gonna try my luck lol. hopefully my gamestop will let me do it. btw do you get a card or validation code for the credit or is it automatically applied when you first register the tablet?
It's automatically applied when you activate.

The Development section is a bit slow at the moment (posting-wise). Does anyone know if unlocking the bootloader and rooting removes the $25 option when you're on Google Play? I know not everyone here has received theirs yet. Just wondering.

I think that was only available until 7/12, but don't quote me on that.
I would definitively check. I still can't get mine out of the box, not sure where my credit comes from yet.. :victory:
EDIT: Finally watched a dozen unboxing videos, while watching I just slid the box off without realizing.. (j/k) Anyways on topic, GameStop gets the $25 credit, once you enter your Google account info you get this screen;

Give me yours, I'll get it out of the box.
Once I logged into to my Google account the $25 credit was applied, you have to link a credit card however (mine was already linked to my account). As far as just walking into Gamestop and buying without preorder, you can't. Asus only shipped the number of preorders each store made. The store I picked mine up only had 3, 2 of which were mine.

I did not preorder from gamestop. I called a gamestop around me and asked if they had one. They had one left and I left work to go pick it up. I bought it no hassle, though the price tag on it was $99,999 LOL! I was told that I couldn't get the $25 play credit. I just got home and activated my N7 and instantly got an email saying I got a credit of $25 in the play store..
Not only did I get it without preordering, I got the $25 as well too.

I got the credit too when I bought mine at Sam's Club an hour ago. As soon as I activated the tablet, I got an email confirming the credit and the tablet told me I had it as well.

So pissed that Gamestop has it before we do (Play preorders). Feel like cancelling mine and trying to hit up a local GS instead. It would be easier to exchange if anything was wrong with it too (knock on wood).

I preordered from google as well. I just got insanely lucky.
i guess its a hit or miss with gamestop. i called a few and a majority of them only have them for pre orders. btw dont bother calling google for cancelling either. after being on hold for almost an hour they said since they are about to ship theres no way they can modify or cancel the current order. you can only return the item once they deliever it to you. you wont pay a restocking fee as long as the box is not open and they will send you a prepaid shipping label for a return.
Questions go in the Q&A section

AT&T Galaxy Gear Promo

Walked into an AT&T store recently and they had a sign up where if you upgrade to the Note 3, you get the Galaxy Tab 3, and Samsung Galaxy Gear.
I inquired about the promo as I recently upgraded and got 2 Note 3's. Alas, since I have gone past the buyer's remorse period, they could not apply the offer to me.
Fast forward to yesterday, I happened to be at Best Buy and came across the Galaxy Gear at the Samsung Area and decided I would call AT&T to inquire about the promotion.
Long story short, 15 minutes later, I have in my mailbox an order confirmation for 2 Black Galaxy Gears on the way to my home.
Of course, YMMV...so goodluck!

I'm guessing you upgraded through AT&T?
Don't seem to see the deal online or I'd see if Sam's Club would be cool and match despite buying at release.
Actually, I ugraded one of the phones thru Best Buy and the other thru AT&T.

i just called AT&T, and they don't have any special like that going right now. do you have a name of who you spoke with? i just bought two Note 3s, and i'd love to get the Gear for free. thanks.

Confirmation After Choosing New Batch(Battery Fix) Replacement
UPDATE 9/2/2016:
Samsung Issues Statement About Faulty Devices:
https://news.samsung.com/global/statement-on-galaxy-note7
Samsung is committed to producing the highest quality products and we take every incident report from our valued customers very seriously. In response to recently reported cases of the new Galaxy Note7, we conducted a thorough investigation and found a battery cell issue.
To date (as of September 1) there have been 35 cases that have been reported globally and we are currently conducting a thorough inspection with our suppliers to identify possible affected batteries in the market. However, because our customers’ safety is an absolute priority at Samsung, we have stopped sales of the Galaxy Note7.
For customers who already have Galaxy Note7 devices, we will voluntarily replace their current device with a new one over the coming weeks.
We acknowledge the inconvenience this may cause in the market but this is to ensure that Samsung continues to deliver the highest quality products to our customers. We are working closely with our partners to ensure the replacement experience is as convenient and efficient as possible.
T-Mobile Acknowledges It & Issues Refunds-Future Exchange:
https://newsroom.t-mobile.com/news-and-blogs/samsung-note7-update.htm
Earlier today, Samsung announced that it has stopped sales globally of the Galaxy Note7. T-Mobile has suspended sales of the device in all channels.
We are working closely with Samsung as they are finalizing details of their exchange program for the Note7, and we want to make sure T-Mobile customers are taken care of as Samsung works to resolve this.
Starting immediately, customers who are concerned about using the Note 7 can return the device to T-Mobile for a full, complete refund. They’ll get a full refund of anything paid for the device and any Note7 accessories. We’ll waive any restocking charges and shipping fees, and customers can keep the free Netflix subscription they received with purchase during pre-order.
Customers can visit their local T-Mobile store where they bought the device or call 611 or 1-800-937-8997 to do this, and they can then use their refund to choose a similar device or any device in T-Moble’s stores, including a new Note7 replacement which we expect to be available in the next two weeks.
We will update this statement as we have more information from Samsung regarding their exchange program for customers.

You will get it before in store release. Happens every time.
For reference, I preordered the s7 Edge from T-mobile on February 24th, and received it March 3rd, so 8 days. If we preorder the Note7 today on the 2nd, and same timeline applies, we'd get it delivered on the 10th. (obviously these timeframes are totally speculative on my part)
They have a habit of shipping phones 1-2 weeks prior to formal launch

You think they'll give away free Gear Vr like they did with Galaxy s7?

Not on the initial preorder offer. Your options are:
-Gear Fit 2 [Estimated Worth ~$179.00]
-1 Year Netflix [Estimated Worth ~$110]
-256GB microsd Card [Estimated worth ~$249.99 (assuming it is the 256GB evoplus)]
From the text:
For those making the smart decision to pre-order the Galaxy Note7, you can choose between a 256GB microSD Memory Card to store all the pictures and video you take while skydiving, a Samsung Gear Fit2 wearable to respond to texts or track your step count while rocky mountain climbing, or a year of Netflix – over a $110 value
I think I'll choose the 256 card as it has the most $ value.
I also wish it was a free gearvr offer, but I'm not complaining
You normally get your phone a week after pre-order. Every Galaxy phone I decided to pre-order I've got before the store released it.
Just had to say it again, that 256GB Card is a really nice perk. I usually buy the max storage card for my phone anyways.
$850
-$250 256 Evo Plus Card
-$20 samsung pay offer
= $580
Considering I sold my s7 edge for $550; I'm almost getting paid to upgrade..
Whoops, I now have to buy a new GearVR (USB-C) so I'm out an extra $100

How do trade ins work towards a preorder? Do I send my phone back in the shipping box and they credit my account or EIP of new device? They probably won't be looking for the charger either I am assuming.

Doesn't that usually happen AFTER the pre order period?
What do you guys think would be the better method? Online or in store for pre ordering. I just don't want their pre order website to crash and have my position pushed back lol

I figure the site can crash just as easy as their POS system if demand is high enough. The bonus I figured was that pre-order online (maybe just t-mobile) is happening tonight. I also think you have more flexibility in store as far as where it gets shipped and so forth.
I'm on the fence about jumping on it now and hoping it ships before the 19th. In my case I would be hoping for it to ship prior to my trip to Toronto on the 15th, so a full 6 days earlier on the thirteenth.
During the S7 launch did they wait to announce the buy one get one deal on the day of release or a couple days before? Does anyone remember?

Seems from what @charlieb620 said it is credited to your account, not to the eip when you do it online.

0$ down does usually depend on your credit though. Keep that in mind if you have crappy credit.

I ordered my Sprint version from Samsung. That way I can use their financing.
While chatting with them I asked if the Sprint ship date was correct and they had no answer. Samsung says they'll ship by the 11th. But no one will know for sure until you have a tracking number.
Do you know if Sprint is offering the $425 credit for the note 7 users? I'm trying to get it through Samsung, but my S8+ is not on the list of acceptable devices. I don't want to have to deal with selling it on Swappa.
I pre ordered mine through Sam's club, get the same free stuff and I'll get a 200 dollar gift card from them as soon as I pick it up!

They are NOT offering the $425 credit. The only things they are offering atm are the promo gifts and 50% off credit as new line only
I pre-ordered the black unlocked version from Samsung with a trade in of an s6 for $425, free sd card, sprint sim, and wireless charger, $20.00 off VR headset (note 8 edition), $50.00 off dex station. My total was still only $750. I did the 24-month account with Samsung. The phone without the VR headset and dex station was going to be $26/month and with for $32/month so I went with the extras...it's only $6 more per month. Now I have to look for some screen protectors and cases. And now to sell my s7 edge on eBay...hehehe.

Mine says it will ship by 9/11. This happened on the Note 7 and most received theirs 2-4 days before availability. I'm sure that we will have them anytime the week before release.
I ordered mine directly from Samsung to take advantage of the extra $125 off they're offering because of the Note 7 recall. I do believe Sprint is currently stating they'll ship on 9/5 and Samsung is saying they'll ship on 9/11. I'm ok with waiting a few more days for the $125. My total, with all of the goodies was $572.
I didn't order the unlocked version, I ordered the sprint version... I wonder if that was a fatal flaw although I'm not planning on switching as I have 3 other phones still under contract until 2018...

Yes, they are to previous Note 7 owners.
They are taking quite a few phones in as trade...... But not the S8.
