Re: Will google reduce the rate of pixel !

highly unlikely...
Highly likely actually.
Electronic products get cheaper over time. Old products get cheaper when new ones come out. So of course it will get cheaper the more you're willing to wait.
My guess the normal pixel should be around $500 by end of the year and around $350 by Q2 2017 and probably around $250 by the time next year's model comes out.

0% chance of this happening. Over 50% price reduction over a one year timespan? Never

Re: Will google reduce the rate of pixel !

Halving the rate seems highly unlikely. The OnePlus flagship launched in India at the price of rupees 21,999. It is now available at a price of 17,999 which is just an 18% deduction in the rate, two new models later. Flagship phones are known to be expensive unlike budget phones, I don't think the Pixel will reduce in value. You could try your luck at Android Central's international giveaway.

Re: Will google reduce the rate of pixel !

I honestly don't know.

Google has made it clear that this is a new day and that they're on the hardware business for the very long haul.

They might be willing to not lower the price for quite some time (maybe until the Pixel 2 comes out) and suffer poor sales on the first generation of Pixel phones in order create the perception of "value" like the iPhone has.

One thing that Apple fans love to point out is that iPhones in general and better resell value than most Android phones and, to be fair, they're not exactly wrong.

Re: Will google reduce the rate of pixel !

I really think they are going to try and hold the line on pricing on the Pixel as once they start cutting price it sends a bad signal that something is wrong. Now I could see them offering promos like maybe Google Play credits and maybe a small $50 discount around the holidays. I mean the 6P was a resounding success last year and it's price was never cut, just one or maybe two limited time $50 discounts. Now I know the 6P started at a much lower price to begin with but only time will tell on the Pixel.

Seems like people are willing to give the 32gb a try but the 128 is just sitting.

Re: Will google reduce the rate of pixel !

I see at least promo with deep discounts. Through Vzw you can get the phone for as low as $410. So I def could see some kind of slashes. It may not be huge, but something.

Re: Will google reduce the rate of pixel !

Google seems to want the Pixel to be an iPhone competitor, so I think the answer is the same as the iPhone. I don't follow the iPhone pricing at all so I don't know if it drops after some period of time, but whatever the iPhone does with its pricing I think the Pixel will follow that model.

They will have special sales where there maybe 100 or 50 dollars off for a limited time but they won't drop the price permanently

There will be sales and a drop off in time, of course. But don't expect a huge price drop anytime soon

which is why it's now a good time to pick up the Samsung Galaxy S7,
which frequent goes on sale for as low as $369.

It is a high quality smartphone. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. They're just upset about the price.

Re: Will google pixel be a great smartphone?

I think it is going to be a great phone. Specs say it all. And above all the UI is from Google.
