Every now and again, cell carriers will launch a free phone deal in exchange for starting a new line. For example, right now Verizon is offering the Google Pixel 10 Pro for free with select plans and the purchase of a new line, and it doesn't even require a trade-in.

Both the Pixel 10 Pro and the larger Pixel 10 Pro XL are some of our favorite phones on the market, with the former boasting a 6.3-inch OLED screen, Qi2 magnet implementation, and a powerful CPU that makes it a performance beast. Plus, it's well-liked for its battery life, Google Gemini AI features, and a great set of cameras that are perfect for parents, photography and videography enthusiasts, or just casual users who want crisp, clear images and videos.

One of Verizon's latest free phone deals is for the powerful Google Pixel 10 Pro, a relatively compact performance monster that usually retails for $1,000. The deal is available for select phone plans when buyers start a new line, and there's no trade-in required, which we love.

✅Recommended if: you're looking for a carrier discount on a phone that doesn't compromise on overall performance; you've liked other Pixel devices in the past and were considering staying in that lane; you want a phone with great battery life, a small display, and Pixelsnap Qi2 integration.

❌Skip this deal if: you'd prefer to upgrade to the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL, which is our top pick in the best phone for parents category, and you have the budget to do so; you have sensitive eyes and need a phone with industry-leading PWM rates; you don't want to start a new Verizon line or aren't eligible for the selected plans.

The Google Pixel 10 Pro is a solid smartphone, featuring a bright, vibrant 6.3-inch Super Actua OLED display that can reach 3300 nits of brightness and has a 120Hz refresh rate. It also comes with powerful cameras, including an ultrawide lens with macro focus, the highly useful 15W Pixelsnap Qi2 charging integration, and seven years of OS updates.

The Pixel 10 Pro is backed by the Google Tensor G5 processor, which is largely responsible for the device's smooth performance. It also sports 16GB of RAM and 30W wired charging. This particular deal is for the base-level 128GB version of the 10 Pro, though most casual users (or those with cloud storage) can make that work.

All in all, if you're already a Verizon customer or were thinking about switching, this is a great way to score a free Google Pixel phone, though you'll want to act while supplies last.
