Google has recently hinted at an upcoming addition to its smartphone lineup with a fresh paint job; the Pixel 8 Pro is expected to debut in a refreshing ‘Minty Fresh’ color. This comes just after a less than impressive launch of Samsung’s Galaxy S24, potentially swaying potential buyers towards Google’s offering. The announcement was made via Twitter, featuring a cryptic binary message paired with a teaser video showcasing the new color scheme.
Launch Date and Availability
The teaser concludes with the date “1.25.24,” confirming the launch of the new color option on January 25th. This particular model will be sold exclusively through the Google Store and Google Fi Wireless in the US, adding a sense of exclusivity to the fresh color variant.
Product Offers and Celebratory Campaign
While it remains uncertain if the base model Pixel 8 will sport the same minty hue, Google is enticing customers with a 20% discount offer for those who register at the Google Store by January 24th. A promotional code will be sent out the following day redeemable towards the new device until February 3rd. Google is also collaborating with renowned street artist Ricardo González for a special mural in New York City, which will be live-streamed on YouTube.
