The list of discounted smartphones includes the entire Pixel 8 lineup, comprising three models, and a select few from the Pixel 7 series as well. This development comes a day after Google confirmed that it has commenced the production of the standard Pixel 8 in India – a move first announced at the Google for India event in October 2023.
