Yesterday morning, Google Nest stirred everyone into a frenzy over a sudden and unexpected Monday announcement. That “something special” turns out to be a series of Google Store “Daily Special” deals over the next month.

The Pixel 3a launched last May at Google I/O and it’s still not clear when its rumored replacement will be announced or launched. The US Google Store today lists the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL as being “out of stock.”
Last month, Google dropped the price of Stadia Premiere Edition to $99.99. All Pixelbook, Pixelbook Go, and Pixel Slate owners in the US can now get a $20 discount on that hardware bundle from the Google Store.
Some smart home products are easier to install than others that require wiring and mounting. The US Google Store will now let you directly schedule and pay for professional installations as you shop for Nest products.
In recent months, there have been a handful of changes to pricing for Google’s game streaming service. The Google Store this week is discounting the Stadia Controller by 10% worldwide.
A few weeks ago, Made by Google’s first-party hardware store revamped product categories to directly name the Pixel, Nest, Stadia, and Pixelbook brands. The Google Store now has a “Videos” section to help you “get the most out of your devices.”
A Google Store outage this afternoon sees buyers unable to make most purchases. The issue is worldwide and impacts all first-party devices.
The visual modernization and slightly improved specifications of the 3rd-generation Chromecast did not even warrant stage time at Made by Google 2018. As such, it’s appropriate that a price cut for the streaming dongle was also done without any fanfare earlier this week.
Google’s smart speaker lineup is currently comprised of four devices, with the latest being the Nest Mini from October 2019. The original Google Home today is “no longer available” from the US Google Store in a possible end for the nearly four-year-old Assistant device.
Announced in October, the “Not Pink” variant of Google’s latest Chromebook did not become available until mid-January. At that, supply was constrained, with only the $1,399 unit available for the past few months. A more affordable Core i5 Not Pink Pixelbook Go is now back in stock on the Google Store.
Earlier this month, Google’s first mid-range Pixel phone officially marked its one-year anniversary. While the Pixel 4a launch is up in the air, the Pixel 3a today is seeing its deepest discount yet from the Google Store to $279.
At Made by Google 2019 in October, Google Nest announced a revamp of its subscription services program that was set to launch in “early 2020.” The new Nest Aware is rolling out this week with sign-ups now open.
It’s unfortunately not uncommon for Google to make little mistakes when it comes to shipping products from its store, and this week, one user saw that in action. A pretty funny mistake on the Google Store saw one user shipped a case of 10 devices when he only ordered a single Pixel 4.
Launched Monday morning, the Pixel Buds were sold out a day later from most retailers. The US Google Store now has the Pixel Buds back in stock for $179.
The first US orders for Pixel Buds are shipping from the Google Store today following their launch yesterday morning. It comes as the second-generation Assistant headphones are now delayed or out of stock at many retailers.
A small tweak being tested on the Google Store today sees the company emphasize its different product brands. Instead of generic categories, Made by Google is directly using “Pixel,” “Nest,” and “Stadia” in the top navigation.
In the last month, the new Pixel Buds have received the necessary regulatory approval and were briefly available for pre-order from a third-party retailer. Google Stores around the world today have changed which colors Pixel Buds will be available in locally.
Google reported “declines in hardware” sales during its Q4 2019 earnings this February. That year-end period includes the busy holiday shopping season and the launch of Made by Google’s flagship phones. In a trend that carries over from last year, the Google Store today discounted the Pixel 4 to $499.
With the launch of every flagship Pixel, Google heavily discounts the previous model to sell remaining inventory. The Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL is now officially out of the stock at the Google Store.
