What you need to knowGoogle is quietly removing Pixel 11 discounts right in the Google Play Store app. Platinum members get up to $175 off select Pixel hardware. That includes $150 off the Pixel 11 series, $175 off the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, and $75 off the Pixel Watch 5. This deal is an instant introductory discount, meaning you can stack it on top of a standard phone trade-in to double your savings. Google has another Pixel 11 discount, but it’s not on the main Google Store page. Instead, the company is quietly offering Play Points members an instant discount through the Google Play app, and you might be able to combine it with a trade-in. It seems the offer depends on your Google Play Points status. For example, the folks at Droid Life discovered that Platinum members can currently get $150 off the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, and Pixel 11 Pro XL. The discount also applies to other new hardware, with $175 off the Pixel 11 Pro Fold and $75 off the Pixel Watch 5. Please note that this is not a trade-in credit. It’s an introductory discount, so you could stack it on top of a trade-in to increase your overall savings. In other words, your Play Points benefit becomes more useful if you were already planning to upgrade. Latest videos from Android Central The offer is a little less obvious than it should be. Open Google Play and tap your profile or the Play Points icon. Tap the Benefits tab. If your account is eligible, you should see your Pixel offer there. It’s not entirely new, as Google has already used Play Points to get discounts on Pixels. But, with Pixel 11 pre-orders now open, you might want to check your Play Points before paying to save a significant amount of money. Maybe you like it. There is another option you may want to consider. AT&T is selling the Pixel 11 Pro for $0 if you trade in any previous Pixel you own, though the deal requires an eligible service plan. For now, the Play Points discount is just another reason to check out all the available offers before paying. More importantly, look at the final price after trade-in, gift cards, and plan requirements, and not just the main discount.
