Really? Why is this worth a post in here? This is a older phone and with scratch and dents, Does it look like a attractive deal?
I see even better deal on amazon for the same used phone, or probably in a better condition. https://www.amazon.com/Google-Pixel-Memory-Unlocked-Clearly/dp/B07P8MQHSH?th=1
Here’s the link but sold out:

Security updates are planned to end for this phone sometime in October 2021. Next year, you’ll probably be on your own as far as security patches go.
Google and Qualcomm are thinking about extending security updates 1 more year to 4 years for most new phones from Google. Not sure if the Pixel 3 will be included.
Open source does magic. Tech companies should come forward supporting their devices longer to fosters green movement
I’m a new person here.
What is a “portal” that William Charles on the site suggests I use to save more money.
A portal refers to a website that gives generally cash sometimes reward points back when you navigate to another site from the portal, basically the selling website pays a commission which the portal then passes on the majority of to you. My go-to approach is to google along the lines of “woot cashback” and generally within the first couple of results are cashback monitor and cashbackholic which aggregate information about which portals are currently paying the best rate.

Don’t forget to use that amazing Amex offer for 1.7% back from Woot
(/s?)
I got 1.6%, so maybe more /s? lol
Could be useful for a Google Store / Google Fi trade-in
Is there a link to this deal? Went to the site and can’t find it. Maybe it’s dead?
So who is happy with an older phone? 🤔
I am, but if you’re not feel free to write a Google review bout it.
There are sometimes undesirable forced OS upgrades with some newer phones.
I’m still using Pixel 1 XL. I see no reason to upgrade
It’s kind of a continuum between better technology and keeping my money.
Still using 3 XL from ‘free’ deal, works well, should be getting Android 12 in the fall. Not a huge fan of the notch, but the overall ownership experience for the past 2+ years has been good.
Ahhh yes. I remember this deal. Good times
i am. i use it to make calls, text, google, maps, and calendar. $130 phone does that as well as a $1000 phone
With your usage patterns, you barely need a smartphone lol
This is true for 99.9% of users.
I have had the Pixel 3 since day one and am still happy with it. I thought I would get the Pixel 5, but without a good deal ($50 at BF didn’t cut it).
Same here. I got my Pixel 3 with the travel credit match (Delta, SW, Airbnb, Hotels.com) and thought about getting the 5, but at this point I will wait for 5a or the 6. It is still doing well, battery goes more now but charges fast. Plus the “unlimited original quality photos) which will end soon then I will probably get a new one.
