AT&T’s deal makes it clear they’re going after the crowd who doesn’t want to jump through hoops just to save money. Unlike T-Mobile and Verizon, which are both offering the phone for free but require a trade-in or a new line,AT&T’s offer keeps it simple: as long as you’re on any unlimited plan, even the cheaper ones, you’re eligible for the deal. Plus, for a limited time, you’ll get a free pair of Pixel Buds A-Series thrown in, which doesn’t hurt.

Business customers can snag an even better offer. AT&T is offering the Pixel 9a for just 99 cents with a two-year agreement, or $1.99 a month on a business installment plan. If you order through their Premier portal, there may be additional discounts available too.
The Pixel 9a itself features a 6.1-inch OLED display, 128GB of storage, 8GB of RAM, a 48MP main rear camera, and a 5100mAh battery. It’s not a revolutionary phone, but it delivers where it counts, especially in photo quality, software support, and day-to-day performance.
For anyone not keen on trading in an old device or jumping to a premium plan just to land a decent phone, AT&T’s $2.99 offer is a low-commitment way to grab one of the year’s most well-rounded midrange Android phones. Just as long as you don’t mind paying another monthly fee.
