Google just unveiled its new flagship Pixel 11 series, including the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. The phones include upgrades to the processor, cameras, and storage, making them a worthy upgrade for Pixel fans.
Right now at Verizon, you can find several offers on the Pixel 11 Pro. If you sign up for a Simplicity Pro plan for $80 a month, you'll get the Pixel 11 Pro (256GB) for free, and you'll be able to upgrade to the latest Pixel model each year with a trade-in. Or, you can get a line on the Simplicity plan and get the Pixel 11 Pro for $45 per month total -- that's $15 for the device, and $30 for the plan -- for four years, with no trade-in required.

For existing Verizon customers, if you sign up for a new line on an eligible myPlan and trade in your old phone, you can get up to $1,100 off the Pixel 11 series, potentially covering the full cost of the phone. To take this route, you'll need to purchase your device on a 36-month payment plan, and Verizon will cover the cost through monthly promotional credits applied over the 36 months. To qualify for this deal, your eligible trade-in phone must be active on your Verizon account for at least 60 days before you purchase the new phone.
Existing customers on an eligible myPlan can also trade in an eligible phone to receive up to $900 off the Pixel 11 line, again by purchasing the new device on a 36-month payment plan and getting the cost covered through monthly credits applied over that time. Your trade-in device can be from Apple, Samsung, Google, or Motorola, and must have been active on your account for at least 60 days.

Finally, if you buy a new Pixel on a payment plan or bring your own Pixel and sign up for a new line, you can get a new Pixel Watch 5 and Galaxy Tab S10 FE free, via 36 monthly credits.
If you're a Verizon customer (or have been interested in switching) and want a new Pixel 11 phone, this is a great time to take advantage of the carrier's deals.
How I rated this deal
Though carrier deals always come with caveats, if you're interested in a Verizon plan and getting a new Pixel 11, this is still a great deal. That's why I gave it a 4/5 editor's rating.
Preorders for the Pixel 11 line start today, and the phones hit stores Aug. 20. We expect this deal to last at least during the preorder period.
