A Google Store promotion is offering the Pixel 2 XL with a $200 refund and a free 18W USB-C charger, a good deal for customers looking to purchase a flagship smartphone.
The promotion follows the $75 discounts launched for the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL in December 2017 and the 20 percent discounts given last month for "loyal" Nexus owners. Customers who have been looking for a great chance to buy the Pixel 2 XL should definitely think about availing the Google Store offer, which will not last long.
Google Pixel 2 XL Promotion
The deal offered by the Google Store for the Pixel 2 XL will give customers $200 back from the $850 price tag of the 64 GB model of the smartphone. This will effectively knock the purchase price down to $650, which is also the cost of the smaller Pixel 2. For the 128 GB model of the Pixel 2 XL, the price will be reduced from $950 to $750.
To avail the promotion, customers will have to spread their payment for the Pixel 2 XL over 24 months, which is subject to credit approval. Once the transaction goes through, customers will be paying the full price of $35.38 per month for the 64 GB model and $39.54 per month for the 128 GB model in 24 months. However, Google will be sending a $200 statement credit after two billing cycles, which comes much faster than other similar offers that distribute the rebate across monthly billings over two years.
Meanwhile, to avail the free 18W USB-C charger, customers will need to add the accessory to the Google Store cart while buying the Pixel 2 XL. The cost of the charger will be automatically deducted upon checkout.
For customers who, for some reason, would like to purchase the smaller Pixel 2 despite it carrying the same price as the Pixel 2 XL, they can still avail the free charger. Just like with the Pixel 2 XL, the accessory will just have to be added to the cart while buying the smartphone.
The Google Store promotion for the Pixel 2 XL will only last until March 31. 11:59 p.m. PT, so customers will need to make their purchase fast to avail it.
