The pixel "a" line is around the $300-400 range.

They also recently seem to be doing this thing where they pay _way_ too much for certain trade-ins.

I got a pixel 6a for $150 because I traded in my dying pixel 3a that was also losing software support, and they threw in a free pair of their wireless earbud things.

I actually went through a carrier this time because I could trade in my current device for waaaaay more than it's worth. My current phone is neither receiving OS updates nor security updates, and the Pixel 7 gives me five years of security updates and three years of OS updates.
