Google's quest to build a smartphone as popular as the latest iPhone and Samsung Galaxy took a massive step forward when the original Google Pixel launched last year. Its successor - the aptly named Google Pixel 2 - is now on the shelves.
But there's a fly in the ointment. Prices have just shot back up after a month or two of banging bargains - it looks like stocks have become scarce and that's inflated the prices. Insane tariffs for less than £20 per month and a reasonable upfront spend - gone. Our favourite £22.99pm tariff for 2GB of data - gone. Big data deals for unbelievably low tariffs - gone. Gone, gone, ALL GONE!
But the Pixel 2 is a phone for Android lovers who want the purist interface on the market, and we doubt you'll be dissuaded from buying even when the cheapest prices have disappeared. And that's where TechRadar can help, as you can use our comparison chart below to identify the best Pixel 2 deal for you.
It's still substantially more affordable than the likes of the Galaxy Note 8 and iPhone X, making it an obvious choice if you want a brand new flagship phone without paying stupid money. And then there's the supersized Pixel 2 XL as well, with its fantastic 6-inch QHD+ display. Read on to see exactly how much you'll have to pay for your choice of new Google phone with our Pixel deals comparison chart.

Google Pixel 2 deals for SIM-free: how much does the phone cost?
When the Pixel 2 hit the market, we were urging people to buy the handset outright and combine it with a cheap SIM only deal. The Pixel 2 costs £629 and the Pixel 2 XL will be £799 to buy SIM-free and adding in a SIM plan for a fiver a month made financial sense. But now that contract plans have shot down in price, they are now the more cost-effective way to go.
There's no doubt that the Pixel 2 is one of the very finest Android phones out there, but the Pixel's successor is a familiar story of incremental improvements rather than whole-scale change. The feature that might just get you buying are the top-of the-line cameras for photos and video. While the delightful screen, great-sounding speakers and slick Android operating system will all appeal to a range of smartphone users.
