| Best Buy is throwing in a couple of goodies at Pixel purchasers, but there is a slight catch |
The retailer is offering a $100 gift card along __with a Chromecast 2 when you pre-order either of the two Pixel models. The Chromecast 2 isn't the top-end 4K Ultra model but nevertheless, isn't too bad of a package if you're looking to invest in Google's wider ecosystem.
We should point out, of course, that your Best Buy Google Pixel or Pixel XL will be locked to Verizon, which is a bit of a bummer if you're not looking to deal with Big Red. Google's Nexus line wasn't generally sold through carriers upon launch, so in a sense this branching out is a good thing. A little more variety and less exclusivity, however, wouldn't have gone amiss.
Still, there's always the unlocked route, which we certainly recommend you take if financially viable. Aside from the lack of carrier constraints and typical bloatware, you'll be certain of getting Google's Android updates as and when they're rolled out to the masses.
If you are happy to roll with Verizon, though, you can find out more at the source.
