That’s why we’ve put together this guide. Whether you’re looking to see what the major carriers have to offer or if you’re after an unlocked phone to take to your own favorite service provider, here’s everything you need to know about how and where to get the Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL for yourself:

Unlocked

As you would expect, the Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are both available unlocked and from a variety of retailers. One welcome change Google made to its new flagship phones is that they are now compatible with both GSM and CDMA carriers, meaning that you can take your unlocked Pixel 4 or Pixel 4 XL to any of the “big four” U.S. service providers (Verizon, T-Mobile, Sprint, and AT&T).

Pre-orders for the phones are now over — so you can get the device straight from the Google Store or your favorite retailer.

  • Google Pixel 4 64GB: $800
  • Google Pixel 4 128GB: $900
  • Google Pixel 4 XL 64GB: $900
  • Google Pixel 4 XL 128GB: $1,000

Best Buy also carries the unlocked Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, but it has an advantage over many online retailers in that you have the option to activate your phone with one of the major carriers (minus T-Mobile) right away if you want to. This lets you take advantage of any ongoing discounts or other specials being offered by service providers. These change frequently, so keep an eye on our up-to-date Google Pixel deals roundup for the latest bargains.
