The Pixel 10A is set to hit shelves in just one week and will be the most affordable phone in Google's lineup at just $499. And when you preorder yours now at Amazon, you'll also get a free $100 gift card with the purchase. This offer is available for the 128GB and 256GB configurations but is only available through March 11.

If you'd rather pick up a new pair of earbuds instead, Amazon is also offering a free pair of Google Pixel Buds 2A with select preorders -- which is a $129 value. Just note that these two offers can't be combined, and the free earbuds are only available in the Obsidian color.

The soon-to-be previous-gen Pixel 9A has been a favorite since it hit shelves last year and the new 10A model offers some slight improvements. It's equipped with the same Google Tensor G4 chip and features the same 6.3-inch OLED display. However, the new Pixel 10A uses slightly more durable Corning Gorilla Glass 7i for better drop and scratch protection and delivers improved brightness and contrast.

The 10A also supports faster 30W wired charging and 10W wireless charging. Plus, it comes with a handful of cool new features like Quick Share (similar to Apple's AirDrop), AI camera coaching and a satellite-enabled SOS. For more details, you can check out our full Pixel 10A vs. 9A breakdown.

Why this deal matters

Google's budget-friendly Pixel A series phones already offer a ton of bang for your buck. And with these preorder offers at Amazon, you can get a free $100 gift card or $129 pair of earbuds with the purchase, making the 10A an even better value.
