Google Pixel 6 with white Pixel buds: Was £689.99, now £449, Amazon.co.uk

The Pixel 6 comes with ‘cute details, like icons that change colour to match the theme you’ve chosen’ (Amazon)

Our technology critic, David Phelan, reviewed the best smartphones in 2022, and, of course, the Google Pixel 6 made the cut. Phelan noted that it’s a great option if you’re looking for a smaller phone, particularly when compared to the Google Pixel 6 pro (was £948.99, now £749.99, Amazon.co.uk), since this model offers the same “flagship capabilities”.

“The software here is pure Android, so it works seamlessly at all times,” he praised. You’ll also find “special extra apps like a recorder, which is perfect for taking the minutes of a meeting, for instance, because it records and transcribes voices in real-time”. The “Android 12 software is already on board here and has cute details, like icons that change colour to match the theme you’ve chosen”.

For this deal, you’ll also get the Google Pixel buds (were £99.99, now £69, Amazon.co.uk) thrown in for free. The earbuds received high praise in our review, with our writer noting that they “integrate seamlessly with Android devices” and “feature Google’s fast pair tech, plus it’s got that fancy real-time translation feature”.

Our tester found that “they felt comfy, they were discreet”, and they liked that they were “designed with pressure-relieving vents for those who get earbud claustrophobia when their lugholes are clogged”.

With a whopping £250 saving, you’ll get the handset and earbuds – thanks, Prime Day.
