Here's How To Score A Google Pixel 2 XL For $150 Off With Project Fi

Time sure does fly when you're having fun. The Project Fi MVNO wireless service just turned three years old today, and to celebrate, Google is offering a nice discount on its flagship Pixel 2 XL smartphones. Sure, we've seen some excellent Qualcomm Snapdragon 845-based flagships from the likes of Samsung and Sony so far this year, but few smartphones give you the clean, unblemished Android UI that comes with the Pixel 2 family.

Today only you can purchase a 64GB Pixel 2 XL on Project Fi for $699 or the 128GB model for $799. These prices represent a $150 savings off their normal MSRP. Even better, the discounts are applied at checkout instead of being given back to you in the form of bill credits, a rebate card, or store credit at a later date. However, if you fail to activate the phone within 30 days, Google will charge that $150 right back to your credit card – so activate quickly once you receive the phone.

If you're looking to score a discount on the Pixel 2, we're sorry to inform you that Google is only spreading the Project Fi birthday savings to the Pixel 2 XL. We should also mention that the promotion ends tonight at 11PM PST.

The standard Project Fi plan starts at $20 per month and gives you unlimited domestic talk/text and unlimited international texting. Data can then be added to your plan at a cost of $10 per gigabyte. So, a plan that includes 5GB of data would cost you a total of $70 per month. However, if you were to only use 2GB during your billing cycle, you would receive a bill credit for $30.

Bill Protection puts an added wrinkle in the above formula by capping your bill at $80 once you use over 6GB of data. However, once you hit 15GB, Google will begin throttling your data speeds.
