There are some superb phone deals courtesy of the ongoing spring sales at major retailers today – not least Amazon's record-low price on the exceptional Google Pixel 9 Pro. This latest flagship is currently going for $849 (was $1,099) at the retailer, which is easily the lowest price yet for an unlocked device at the retailer.

It's not the lowest price you'll find anywhere, however. Right now, the prepaid carrier Mint Mobile offers a massive $400 price cut on both the standard Pixel 9 and the high-end Pixel 9 Pro XL.

Annoyingly, the Pixel 9 Pro is absent from this promotion, but these two discounts are absolutely awesome – and they don't require the usual trade-in that's necessary at most of the major carriers.

While you will require a plan, Mint is currently throwing in a whole year of unlimited data for just $180 alongside these devices, which is a nice little bonus if you were thinking about pairing up your device with a prepaid line.

At $180, the plan in question here is half-price, so you're getting a great deal for an unlimited plan. Note, if for whatever reason you decide Mint isn't for you, then the devices will be fully unlocked after two months.
