Google wants to take the smart out of the smart home ZDNet's Chris Matyszczyk claims that there’s nothing worse than living with someone -- or something -- that’s too clever by half. Read more: https://zd.net/2YIFUkl

Google[1] is likely a couple of months away from unveiling the next Pixel smartphone[2], so, of course, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are on sale -- at possibly their lowest prices ever -- on Amazon. 

Amazon has taken $150 off the 64GB Pixel 3[3] and $280 off the 64GB Pixel 3 XL[4] in white or black. We've price-tracked these models and discovered they're now cheaper than they were on Prime Day last month[5], and they appear to be at their lowest price ever on Amazon. During our digging, we found they were reduced even further on Black Friday last year[6], but only through a few channels like Best Buy and Verizon.

In other words, you likely won't be able to get these phones at a lower price, unless you want to wait until the holidays, by which time the new Pixel 4[7] will probably be available and also slightly discounted for a limited time. 

Google launched the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL last autumn. They both feature a Snapdragon 845 processor and 4GB of RAM. The Pixel 3 is essentially the same phone as the Pixel 3 XL, save for the smaller 5.5-inch 1080 x 2160 HD display (versus a 6.3-inch Quad HD 1440 x 2960 display). It also typically costs $100 less than the Pixel 3 XL.
