UPDATE: Black Friday has passed us by, but Cyber Monday is here to keep this deal going for just a short while longer. The Pixel 7a maintains its current on-sale price of $374, but it won't stay that way for long! Don't wait too long on picking up this sensational smartphone, now at its lowest ever price.

Black Friday is now so close that I can hear its stomach grumble. The world's biggest shopping bonanza is about ready to kick off in both brick-and-mortar and online stores, with many of the most impressive deals expected to arrive at the stroke of midnight tonight.

But that doesn't mean you have to wait on the date. Some of the best deals you'll encounter this Black Friday are already live, like the Google PIxel 7a now just $374 at Amazon.

It stole the thunder from the otherwise solid Pixel 7 on release, and it's absolutely pocketing the limelight when it comes to star deals to jump on this Black Friday.
