You probably wouldn't have noticed unless you're constantly searching for Samsung and Google Pixel phone deals like I am, but Verizon has had a noticeable shortage of offers over the past few weeks.
Fortunately, it looks like the lull has come to an end, as the Big Three carrier just launched a promotion that will give you a FREE Google Pixel 11 Pro when you add a line with the Unlimited Plus or Unlimited Ultimate plan.
Meet the Google Pixel 11 Pro
The Pixel 11 Pro wasn't a dramatic transformation for Google, but I'm certain it'll still end up on our list of the best Android phones of 2026. The compact flagship comes equipped with a vibrant 6.3-inch OLED 120Hz display and the new HiLight LED array for notifications, while under the hood you get a powerful Tensor G6 chipset with 12GB of RAM, some upgraded camera hardware, and the advanced Titan M3 security coprocessor.
As one would expect from Google, the Pixel 11 Pro also features the latest AI-boosted software features and seven years of OS and security upgrades, plus you get Qi2.2 charging support and a thinner and lighter form factor than ever before.
The problem is that this lighter build results in a smaller battery than last year's Pixel 10 Pro, and Google still wasn't able to escape the rampant price increases that have been plaguing the industry. Still, the Pro remains one of the best phones that Google has ever produced, the price hike just means that deals like this Verizon offer are more essential than ever before.
Why is this Verizon deal important?
This Verizon deal is notable for two reasons. First off, it doesn't require a trade-in, which is always a plus. Secondly, you don't have to sign up for the carrier's most expensive data plan to receive the full savings. Unlimited Plus is a nice mid-tier option that's perfect for folks who want the premium plan experience without paying the premium price.
It starts at $80 per month for a single line (using AutoPay and paperless billing), but you can drop that price down significantly by adding multiple lines at once. Unlimited Plus gets you unlimited talk, text, and 5G Ultra Wideband data on Verizon's vast network, 30GB of premium mobile hotspot, and the ability to mix and match additional perks every month for as little as $10 each.
You can also pay a bit more for Verizon's premium Unlimited Ultimate plan, which lands you all of the perks above in addition to 4K video streaming, international coverage, and more.
If you're already a Verizon customer or planning to switch, this deal presents an easy way to get one of the industry's best unlimited plans AND one of the best Android phones for as little hassle as possible. It won't be for everyone, but unless you plan to buy the phone unlocked, it's one of the simplest Pixel 11 deals around.
