We’ve been seeing prices fluctuate for Pixel 10 phones for the past few weeks, but it’s rare to see all four non-folding models get solid discounts at the same time. Meanwhile, the Galaxy A37 has received its first real price drop.
The Google Pixel 10 Pro XL is currently discounted by $300 – bringing the price of the base model (which has 256GB of storage unlike the other three) to $900. The 512GB model costs a little more than $1,000. We have a detailed comparison article that pits the Pixel 10 Pro XL against the Galaxy S26 Ultra to help you choose between the two flagships.
There’s no real need for a detailed article comparing the smaller Google Pixel 10 Pro to its XL-sized sibling – they use identical hardware save for the display (6.3″ vs 6.8″) and battery (4,870mAh vs 5,200mAh). Both last about the same on a single charge (12:08 hours vs. 12:29 hours active usage score), which means “not much”. It did almost the same in our charging test as well, taking about an hour and a half to get fully charged.
However, we need a longer discussion on the topic of Google Pixel 10 vs 10 Pro. This is the first vanilla model with a telephoto camera and as usual, it uses the same chipset as the Pros, but misses out on other features.
As promised, here’s the first real discount on the Samsung Galaxy A37 – there’s $50 off on both the 128GB and 256GB variants of the phone. In addition to double the storage, the 256GB variant also has an additional 2 gigabytes of RAM. After 6 years of use – that’s how long the A37 will be supported – you’ll wish you’d opted for the 8GB model if you didn’t.
Importantly, the Galaxy A37 and Pixel 10a are close in terms of price. The A37 is larger with a 6.7″ screen vs 6.3″, but both are 1080p OLED panels (non-LTPO). Yet it’s the Pixel with the bigger battery, 5,100 mAh versus 5,000 mAh, and longer endurance – the active usage score is 15:13 hours in favor of the Pixel versus 13:49 hours for the Galaxy. Samsung’s more powerful 45W charger takes the battery to 100% slightly faster (1 hour 12 minutes) than Google’s 30W charger (1 hour 29 minutes), but the Pixel also offers wireless charging at 10W. While the older Tensor G4 isn’t a flagship-level chip, it beats the Exynos 1480, especially in terms of GPU performance.
As far as the Samsung Galaxy A57 is concerned, we are still waiting for its first proper discount. While we wait, you can read our Galaxy A37 vs A57 article and see what’s the difference between the two models.
Of course, with current prices, the A57 shouldn’t be a concern about the A37 – it’s the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE that’s the issue. The 128GB model is priced the same, but the S25 FE offers a faster chipset (Exynos 2400 vs. Exynos 1680) with faster storage (UFS 4.0 vs. 3.1), DeX support (USB 3.2 port), an LTPO display panel, wireless charging (15W), and a dedicated telephoto camera (8MP 3x/75mm).
Whichever Pixel 10 model you choose, you might want to get the Pixelsnap case for it. This is Google’s branding for magnetic accessories. The case is made of silicone and offers stronger magnetic attachment than non-magnetic cases.
Another accessory that will pair well with the Pixel 10 phones is the Google Pixel Watch 4. We’ve listed both Wi-Fi and LTE models. Normally, you might not care about LTE connectivity on your watch, but here it makes a difference because it also adds Satellite SOS. This can serve as a good backup if your Pixel 10 (which has Satellite SOS, even the cheaper 10a) gets lost in the woods somewhere. The Pixel Watch 3 is cheaper, but lacks satellite connectivity and uses an older chipset.
While we’re at it, here’s the Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 and Pixel Buds 2a.
For Samsung phones, you might be better off with the Samsung Galaxy Buds4, Buds4 Pro or, if you want a cheaper model, the Buds3 FE.
