Google Pixel 11 256GB: ~~$899~~ FREE with most plans at T-Mobile

Unsurprisingly, the most cost-effective way to get a free Pixel phone is by going with the base model. T-Mobile will give you the Google Pixel 11 for FREE with most data plans, and that includes the affordable Essentials tier.

The Google Pixel 11 is equipped with a stunning 6.3-inch OLED display, the powerful Tensor G6 chipset with 12GB of RAM, and all of the latest AI-boosted software features. You'll still need to pay the $35 activation fee and any applicable sales tax, but that's it!

Google Pixel 11 Pro 256GB: ~~$1,099.99~~ FREE with Experience More or Experience Beyond plans at T-Mobile

Add a line with the Experience More or Experience Beyond plans and T-Mobile will hook you up with $1,100 in promo credits over 36 months. That's enough to make the Pixel 11 Pro completely free! If those unlimited plans are too expensive for you, you can also save a straight $900 by adding a line with 'most plans' on the carrier's site.

The Google Pixel 11 Pro takes the compact size of the standard Pixel 11 and adds a larger battery, brighter display, and the new HiLight LED light array around the camera bar.

Google Pixel 11 Pro XL 256GB: ~~$1,299.99~~ FREE with Experience Beyond plan

Add a line with the Experience Beyond plan and T-Mobile will give you enough promo credits to make the new Pixel 11 Pro XL totally free. Indeed, Experience Beyond is the carrier's most expensive data plan, but you can also save $900 by going with a lower-tier plan. There's also some trade-in credit available if you'd rather go that route.

The Pixel 11 Pro XL is a super-sized version of the Pixel 11 Pro, adding a gorgeous 6.8-inch AMOLED display, an upgraded battery, and up to 16GB of RAM.
