The Google Pixel 4 might start at $799 like the Pixel 3 after all
The Pixel 4 hasn’t stopped leaking all summer yet the pricing Google has planned for its next-generation flagships still remains quite the mystery. But with less than 24 hours to go until the big reveal, a new report published seems to be the most credible pricing leak yet.
The Pixel 4 will cost the same as the Pixel 3 series
Citing a reliable carrier source, Droid Life claims the 64GB versions of the Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL will retail at $799 and $899 respectively in the US. These price points are identical to those of last year’s Pixel 3 series and match up perfectly with earlier rumors about Google’s commercial plans.
Today’s news will likely be met with open arms by fans of the Pixel lineup. Over the weekend, a Best Buy employee revealed Google may have been planning a hefty $999 price tag for the 64GB Pixel 4 XL model while separate reports over the past few weeks have also mentioned a starting price of around $849.
The publication in question, unfortunately, wasn’t able to obtain pricing for the 128GB versions of Google’s flagship devices but in the past, it has charged $100 extra. This would suggest the 128GB Pixel 4 will set consumers back $899 while the Pixel 4 XL alternative will retail at $999.

Google Pixel 4 release date and availability
The Google Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are apparently going to be available for pre-order starting tomorrow, immediately after the announcement event in New York has ended. This is expected to precede shipments on Friday, October 25, in global markets like the US, UK, Europe, and Japan.
In terms of carrier availability for the United States, T-Mobile CEO John Legere seemingly confirmed Google’s next flagships would be available for Magenta customers. Verizon and Sprint are expected to join this list in addition to AT&T, the latter of which was revealed as the latest Pixel partner earlier this month by PhoneArena.
