I still miss my windows phones. Well, I still have them (they’re in a drawer), but they hardly provide experiences as great or modern as smartphones. I’ve long switched to Android, but I’ve never forgotten it. Many Microsoft apps help. If you’re still bitter about the end of the much-needed third smartphone ecosystem, you might be able to ease the pain and get a great new phone at the same time. The Google Pixel 7 is on sale for just $500 on Amazon and is prime real estate for all the Microsoft apps we love and use.
This is an unlocked Google Pixel 7 which should work with all major mobile carriers. It has 128GB of storage and comes in three colors (black, white, and light green). The standard Pixel 7 is already considered excellent value at its full $600 retail price, so shaving the extra $100 feels great. If you want extra storage, you can also get the 256GB Pixel 7 model for $600, which is still $100 off the full price. To save even more, you can activate your new Pixel 7 with Best Buy and get another $100 taken off the model of your choice.
Why I recommend this deal
I have a Google Pixel 7 on my desk. It’s not my primary phone (that honor goes to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4), but I use it regularly as a secondary device and work phone. It’s loaded with all my work and communication apps, and I often use it as a camera. It’s a great device, really, and it’s an incredible value. Honestly, it makes most flagship smartphones look extremely expensive, so those who are aware of how they spend their money should definitely consider it.
You get solid performance with Google’s custom Tensor G2 SoC (co-built with Samsung), plus a premium glass-and-metal design with all the features: great tactile feel, water resistance, wireless (slow) charging, and a fantastic Compact 6.3″ display with a smooth 90Hz refresh rate. Everything you need in a great flagship smartphone is there, but the Pixel 7 claims its fame with two features… the cameras and the software.
Pixels have always been known for having great cameras and Pixel 7 is the best it has ever been. You get a class-leading pair of cameras (one standard and one wide-angle) that excel at stills and perform great with video too. You don’t get the Pixel 7 Pro’s advanced zoom capabilities with its telephoto lens, but that phone is also a lot more expensive. Google has also enhanced a mostly stock Android experience with a bunch of additional AI and software features, like the clever “Now Playing” feature that shows what song is playing in the area on the always-on display, or the powerful Google Assistant with all its capabilities.
You’re not here for any of that, though. You’re here because you know Google was partially responsible for the death of Windows Phones, and you’re still pissed. All right, so am I. So, take your sweet revenge AND you get a really great new smartphone at the same time by taking advantage of this Pixel 7 deal. I bought my Pixel 7 during a sale like this and I don’t regret it at all. You can replace Google’s Pixel Launcher with Microsoft Launcher, replace Google Chrome with Microsoft Edge, swipe away Gboard for SwiftKey keyboard, and ditch Gmail for Outlook. Microsoft has a bunch of great mobile apps to completely transform your Pixel 7 into a glorious, tongue-in-cheek monstrosity from Google and Microsoft, and you get the added benefit of making a Google executive spin and spin in his sleep.
