Google Extends Pixel 11 Trade-Ins Up to $850 After Preorder Credits End

3 articles · Updated · 9to5Google · Aug 28

Summary

  • $850 is now the top Google Store trade-in value for a Pixel 11 Pro Fold, while Pixel 11 and Pixel 11 Pro/XL offers reach $460 and $550 in a new promotion running through Sept. 30.
  • Google launched the second round after its preorder and launch deals expired, dropping store credits entirely and trimming some trade-in values by only $20 from the earlier offers.
  • Recent Pixel models still draw relatively strong values at Google, including $550 for a Pixel 10 Pro, $650 for a Pixel 10 Pro XL and $500 for a Pixel 9 Pro XL toward a 256GB Pixel 11 Pro.
  • Best Buy and Amazon also ended gift card offers and cut trade-ins, though Best Buy remains closer to Google's pricing; a Pixel 10 Pro gets $550 there versus $350 at Amazon.
