If you’re looking for a great high-end smart phone that can handle creative tasks, I think right now this Google Pixel 9 Pro Black Friday deal is one of the best deals out there. Google’s AI flagship phone has $200 knocked off the price, bringing it down from $999 to $799, over at Amazon.

When we reviewed the phone – giving it a near-perfect 4.5 stars out of 5 – we thought it was a clever AI phone that worked smarter, not necessarily harder. Basically, this is a good case of AI – where it never feels likes it’s unwanted, and when it does turn up, it seems like a little bit of magic. The camera is also top end, which is essential for all types of creatives.
