Google’s latest flagship Android smartphones, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are set to go on sale in India starting November 01. Since the Pixel brand does not have a huge fan following in India, Google has announced some exciting launch offers for existing Pixel and Nexus customers. Google will be giving a Home Mini free of cost to existing Pixel and Nexus owners who upgrade to the latest Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL (review) smartphones. In addition to a free Google Home Mini, customers can avail some other attractive offers as well during the first week of sale.
