That’s a pretty steep discount! However it’s not live yet on the Google Store and apparently it’s limited to the US market for now.

EDIT: even at this time the deal is still not live on Google Store, looks like they might have a supply problem.
On Google Fi however it is listed but it is out of stock:
EDIT 2: looks like Google canceled the deal.
I love my 6a, great phone. Shitty finger print reader, though.
I hate mine. Crashes and reboots unexpectedly all the time. It’s also an awkward size, too tall for the width.
Either factory restart or you got a faulty unit. Not even pixels, but no phone manufacturer designs their phones to intentionally crash and reboot all the time.
Obviously it’s not intentionally designed to do so, and a factory restart didn’t resolve the problem. The phone is just a lemon.
