The best Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL deals pre-Black Friday 2017

Google's quest to build a smartphone as popular as the latest iPhone and Samsung Galaxy took a massive step forward when the original Google Pixel launched last year. Its successor - the aptly named Google Pixel 2 - is now on the shelves.

But the high pricing of last year's model meant that sales weren't a shade on the flagships it was meant to compete with. The Pixel 2 starts a tad more expensive, but substantially more affordable than the likes of the Galaxy Note 8 and iPhone X. This is a phone for Android lovers who want the purist interface on the market - even if it does only look like an incremental update from the original Pixel.

And then there's the supersized Pixel 2 XL as well, with its fantastic 6-inch QHD+ display. Read on to see exactly how much you'll have to pay for your choice of new Google phone with our Pixel deals comparison chart.

Google Pixel 2 deals for SIM-free: how much does the phone cost?

Get out your calculator and dust off the abacus - if you want to bag the very best price on the Pixel 2 then buying the handset outright and combining it with a SIM only deal may save you some £s.

The Pixel 2 costs £629 and the Pixel 2 XL will be £799. Considering that the cheapest SIM out there costs a mere £3.99 per month, that's less than £100 for the two year term and so will potentially give you plenty of change from £750 over two years if you go down that road. That's a pretty decent saving on the first set of prices to filter through.

There's no doubt that the Pixel 2 is one of the very finest Android phones out there, but the Pixel's successor is a familiar story of incremental improvements rather than whole-scale change. The feature that might just get you buying are the top-of the-line cameras for photos and video. While the delightful screen, great-sounding speakers and slick Android operating system will all appeal to a range of smartphone users.
