Google Pixel six could be considerably cheaper than iPhone thirteen

We’ve been worried for a while that the Google Pixel 2 and Google Pixel 1 Pro might be expensive phones, with leaks and even vague comments from a Google exec pointing in that direction - but now it looks like they could be surprisingly affordable. Most of the pricing leaks so far have been in euros, so while accurate, they don’t give us a clear idea of ​​how much the Pixel XNUMX range will cost elsewhere. But now two sources claim the US price is €XNUMX (about £XNUMX / AU$XNUMX) for a XNUMXGB Pixel XNUMX and €XNUMX (about £XNUMX / AU$XNUMX) for a XNUMXGB Pixel XNUMX Pro. This complaint originally came from Twitter user @EvanLeiXNUMX, who posted a photo of the shelves at Target with a list of these costs, and claimed that store staff confirmed that these costs were accurate.

Of course, Lee also claims that Google is going to lose money on these phones. We always take these prices with a pinch of salt, especially since they seem so low, but with two sources backing them up, it’s entirely possible that they are accurate, especially with the Google Pixel XNUMX line, which is set to be announced on October XNUMX. , which is tomorrow at the time of writing this article.

Analysis: undermine the competition

By comparison, the iPhone 1 starts at €21 / €21 / AU$XNUMX, so in the US at least the Google Pixel XNUMX will be much cheaper, and even the Pixel XNUMX Pro will not be that much more expensive. It's a similar story with the Samsung Galaxy SXNUMX, which starts at €XNUMX / €XNUMX / AU$XNUMX. Upgrade to the iPhone XNUMX Pro or the Samsung Galaxy SXNUMX Plus and you’re then looking at paying more than what the Pixel XNUMX Pro would cost at $XNUMX / £XNUMX / AU$XNUMX or $XNUMX / £XNUMX / AU$XNUMX respectively – and these aren’t even the high-end models in their ranges. In truth, those prices would mean the Google Pixel XNUMX is even cheaper than the Google Pixel XNUMX, coming in at $XNUMX / £XNUMX / AU$XNUMX. Of course, the Pixel XNUMX will likely be discontinued or drastically reduced when the Pixel XNUMX launches. So if those prices are indeed right, the Pixel XNUMX line could be remarkably affordable for what it is. That said, we can't be sure the UK and Australian prices are quite as promising as we're still using conversions for them, but with the Pixel XNUMX range coming in a day we should find out pretty soon.
