Google’s new Pixel 11 series has arrived, and Verizon is wasting little time rolling out some big launch offers. The carrier is offering the Pixel 11 Pro and a line of wireless service for a total of $45 per month to eligible switchers, with no trade-in required. And for those who would rather trade in their old phone, you can get up to $1,100 off a new Pixel 11 series device.

The offers cover Google’s entire new lineup, including the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Verizon is also offering deals on the new Pixel Watch 5 and other devices for customers who want to lock into the Google ecosystem.

Get the Pixel 11 Pro and Wireless Service for $45 a Month

One of the carrier’s most interesting offers targets people willing to switch carriers. As a new customer, you can get the 256GB Pixel 11 Pro plus one line of service for $45 per month on Verizon’s Simplicity plan.

It’s a 48-month plan that breaks down to $15 per month for the phone and $30 per month for wireless service. The caveat is that you need to bring your number over from another carrier and enroll in Auto Pay and paper-free billing. Taxes and fees are extra. On the other hand, the biggest advantage is that no trade-in is required, so you don’t have to hand over your current phone to qualify.

Pixel Fans Can Get a New Phone Every Year

Verizon also has an option for Pixel fans who like upgrading whenever Google releases something new. If you switch to the Simplicity Pro plan, you can get the 256GB Pixel 11 Pro on Verizon and pay $80 per month.

The Simplicity Pro lets you upgrade to the latest Pixel every year. However, to upgrade, you’ll need to return your current device in good working condition after paying at least 33% of its cost, which can result in an upgrade every 12 months.

Trade In Your Phone and Save Up to $1,100

Even bigger device discounts are available if you’re willing to trade in an eligible phone and get a new line, with up to $1,100 off a Pixel 11 series phone. The new Pixel must be purchased through a 36-month interest-free payment plan, with the savings provided as monthly promotional credits over those 36 months. Additionally, the eligible trade-in device must also have been active on the Verizon account for at least 60 days before the new purchase.

However, if you don’t want a new line, you can receive up to $900 off a Pixel 11 series phone when you upgrade and trade in an eligible Apple, Samsung, Google, or Motorola device on a qualifying plan. Those savings are also delivered as promotional credits over 36 months.

Verizon Will Throw in a Pixel Watch 5 and Galaxy Tab S10 FE

Customers who buy an eligible Pixel on a payment plan or bring their own Pixel while activating a new line can also get a Pixel Watch 5 and a Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE. However, there is a catch.

Both devices need their own service lines, starting at $15 per month each with Auto Pay, and the hardware must be purchased through 36-month payment plans. Verizon then covers the eligible device costs with monthly promotional credits of up to $650 per device over those 36 months.

Google AI Pro Is Available as a Verizon Perk

The carrier is also offering Google AI Pro as an optional perk for customers who want to make more use of the Pixel 11’s Gemini features.

The perk provides expanded access to Gemini’s AI tools along with 5TB of cloud storage for photos, videos, and other files. It can be paired with any new smartphone rather than being limited exclusively to the Pixel 11 lineup.
