But there's more to this deal than just the price.Flipkart is currently hosting its Freedom Sale, offering good discounts and deals across smartphones. While iPhones are definitely on the radar, the ongoing deal on the Google Pixel 10 is worth pausing for if you have been considering a premium Android phone. Google's flagship is currently listed at Rs 74,999, down from its launch price of Rs 79,999. However, if you manage to use an eligible bank offer and exchange an older phone, you can bring the effective price down further.Let's take a detailed look at the available discount on Pixel 10. Pixel 10 Flipkart sale offerThe Pixel 10 with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage is currently listed at Rs 74,999 on Flipkart, down from Rs 79,999. That's already a Rs 5,000 price cut from its original price.However, if you have the right bank card, you can save another Rs 5,000 with eligible ICICI and HDFC credit cards, bringing the effective price down to Rs 69,999. Flipkart is also showing an exchange benefit of up to Rs 59,400. But that figure depends on the device you are exchanging. For example, Pixel 7 owners can currently get around Rs 14,050 off, including the exchange bonus. The actual exchange value will depend on the phone you are trading in, its condition and Flipkart's assessment.With the Pixel 7 exchange offer, the effective price of the Pixel 10 can come down to around Rs 55,949. Newer or higher-value phones could fetch a better exchange value and bring the price down even further. And getting Google's flagship at around a mid-premium price already makes this deal interesting. But if you are still not convinced, here are five reasons why the Pixel 10 deserves a look as a premium Android phone in 2026.1. Tensor G5 brings Google's latest chipLet's start with what's powering the Pixel 10. You get Google's Tensor G5 processor, an octa-core chip clocked at up to 3.78GHz, paired with 12GB RAM. In everyday use, that means your Pixel 10 will give you plenty of power for multitasking, running multiple apps, gaming, photography and Google's AI features without the phone feeling underpowered.2. The display is compact yet just rightIf you don't like huge phones, the Pixel 10's 6.3-inch OLED Actua display could be your compact buddy. It gives you enough screen for watching videos, browsing and gaming, while the relatively compact size keeps the phone comfortable to hold and use.3. The Pixel camerasPhotography is another reason to consider the Pixel 10. You get a 48-megapixel primary camera, 13-megapixel ultra-wide camera and 10.8-megapixel telephoto camera. So, whether you're taking a regular shot, fitting more into the frame or zooming in on a distant subject, you have more flexibility. There's also a 10.5-megapixel front camera for selfies and video calls.4. Gemini AI make the Pixel 10 more interestingAnd then there is Gemini AI, which is a big part of the Pixel 10 experience. Google has built several AI features into the phone, so you get more than just the usual chatbot experience. If you like using AI for everyday tasks, editing photos or getting help with things on your phone, the Pixel 10 gives you plenty to explore.5. The battery should comfortably get you through the dayThe Pixel 10 packs a 4,970mAh battery, so there is a sizable battery powering that relatively compact body. For everyday use including calls, social media, streaming, browsing and taking photos, it should have enough capacity to get you through the day without constantly looking for a charger.- EndsPublished By: Divya BhatiPublished On: Aug 11, 2026 10:45 IST
