Google has a limited-time promotion that cuts 75% off plan prices for a year, but only if you meet certain conditions. The promo applies to certain Google Play users subscribing to Fi for the first time, Droid-Life has learned. It only applies to one plan per user, and one line. You have until September 29, 2026 to claim the promotion. Google Pixel 10a 7/10 SoC Google Tensor G4 Display 6.3-inch Actua display We've asked Google for more details and will share if there's an update. If you do meet the criteria, the savings are substantial. An Unlimited Essentials plan costs just $9 per month (down from $35), while the Unlimited Standard and Unlimited Premium plans respectively cost $13 (normally $50) and $17 (usually $65). You'll save between $312 to $576 over that year, or potentially enough to pay for a Pixel 10a. You'll know if you're eligible by tapping your Play Points number at the top of the Google Play app. Tap Perks and you should see it further down the screen. From there, you can redeem the promo and sign up for Google Fi. Why sign up for Google Fi? Android tie-ins and travel are draws Google Fi supports both Android and iPhones, so you don't need a specific device to use it. However, there are incentives to choose it over rival carriers if you're a devoted Android fan. You can get calls, data, and text on a Galaxy Watch or Pixel Watch at no extra charge. If you own a Pixel phone, you'll automatically connect to "select" secure Wi-Fi networks. You can also buy Android phones directly from Google Fi with both immediate and bill credit discounts. The service could be ideal if you regularly travel, too. The Unlimited Standard plan covers data in Canada and Mexico, while Unlimited Premium (and the pay-per-gigabyte Flexible plan) covers full-speed data in 200-plus countries at up to 50GB. Hotspot tethering is available on Flexible, Standard (25GB), and Premium (50GB), while you'll need Premium for direct tablet and laptop connectivity. It also bundles 100GB of Google One cloud storage.
