That’s why we’ve put together this guide. Whether you’re looking to see what the major carriers have to offer or if you’re after an unlocked phone to take to your own favorite service provider, here’s everything you need to know about how and where to get the Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL for yourself:

Unlocked

As you would expect, the Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are both available unlocked and from a variety of retailers. One welcome change Google made to its new flagship phones is that they are now compatible with both GSM and CDMA carriers, meaning that you can take your unlocked Pixel 4 or Pixel 4 XL to any of the “big four” U.S. service providers (Verizon, T-Mobile, Sprint, and AT&T).

Pre-orders for the phones are now over — so you can get the device straight from the Google Store or your favorite retailer.

  • Google Pixel 4 64GB: $800
  • Google Pixel 4 128GB: $900
  • Google Pixel 4 XL 64GB: $900
  • Google Pixel 4 XL 128GB: $1,000

Best Buy also carries the unlocked Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, but it has an advantage over many online retailers in that you have the option to activate your phone with one of the major carriers (minus T-Mobile) right away if you want to. This lets you take advantage of any ongoing discounts or other specials being offered by service providers. These change frequently, so keep an eye on our up-to-date Google Pixel deals roundup for the latest bargains.

Google may change a small, but crucial chip with the Pixel 10
Google Pixel 9 Pro XL in Hazel.

The Google Pixel 10 series may break from the Pixel 9 series and use a different, but crucial new component compared to the previous models. The next Google Pixel phones will use a MediaTek modem rather than the Samsung Exynos modem, according to an anonymous source speaking to Android Authority.

MediaTek makes various 5G capable modems suited for use in smartphones and other mobile devices, along with modems suitable for home networking. During Mobile World Congress in early 2024, it announced the T300 5G platform, which brings 5G to “power-constrained” devices like wearables, proving it's expertise in the area. For the Pixel 10, Google has apparently selected an as-yet unreleased MediaTek platform called the T900, which will use an also unreleased modem with the name M85.

Google continues to fine-tune its native apps on Android, this time with Google News. This follows the big redesign to Google Maps that happened earlier this year. So what’s new in Google News?

Basically, the newly redesigned Google News makes things simpler in terms of the bottom bar. Previously, there were four sections in that bottom navigation bar: For you, Headlines, Following, and Newsstand. The revamped version now combines For you and Headlines into a new Home tab, which acts as the default feed for content. The other two tabs -- Following and Newsstand -- still remain.
