Why buy on the Google Store.
Frequently asked questions.
What is an unlocked phone?
An unlocked phone is a phone that isn’t tied to a specific carrier. When you purchase an unlocked Pixel phone, you get to choose which carrier or plan works best for you. Most phones in the Google Store come unlocked.
Important: Pixel phones work with all major carriers. But not all Pixel 4a (5G) and later phones have 5G functionality on all 5G networks. See a list of certified carriers to make sure your phone works on its 5G network.
To use a SIM-unlocked phone:
1. Buy an unlocked Pixel phone from the Google Store.
2. Contact a mobile carrier.
3. Follow their instructions to set up your phone with their service plan.
What is eSIM?
eSIM technology allows you to add a cellular plan to your Pixel 8a, without using a physical SIM card. Pixel 8a will arrive ready to activate with eSIM. You will need a Wi-Fi connection for setup.
If you choose to connect to a carrier after you buy your Pixel 8a, you will need to contact your carrier to activate with an eSIM.
What is the difference between connecting my Pixel now with a carrier and connecting it later?
The Google Store offers carrier activation with AT&T and Verizon. If you activate with a carrier now, we’ll connect your Pixel to your account.
AT&T customers: Once you receive your new Pixel, call AT&T to complete your activation. Your Pixel will arrive ready to go with your number and plan information. If you connect with a carrier later, once your new Pixel arrives, you can insert a physical SIM card or use eSIM from any carrier that provides service for Pixel.
