Google introduces Pixel Pass subscription in the US

We've heard about this rumoured Pixel Pass subscription earlier this month, but now Google has unveiled the subscription bundle for its US customers. This allows them to pay for a Pixel 6 phone on a monthly installment basis. They also get access to 200GB of Google One cloud storage, YouTube and YouTube Music Premium, and Google Play Pass.

Pricing starts at US$45 (around CA$56) per month for the Pixel 6 and US$55 (CA$68) for the Pixel 6 Pro. The devices are unlocked and should work with all major US carriers. Subscribers are eligible for an upgrade after two years, and they get an extra year of warranty coverage with this subscription over the standard one-year warranty. The Pixel Pass subscription is available through Google Fi and Google Store. Google Fi subscribers get an additional US$5 off their monthly Fi plan with this subscription bundle.

As The Verge noted, Pixel Pass combines a mix of Apple's iPhone Upgrade Program with the Apple One services bundle. 

According to Google, subscribers who cancel before their two years are up will have to pay off the remaining value of the Pixel phone early at its regular "non-discounted price." Of course, they'll lose access to the bundled services, too. And if they plan to upgrade after two years, the price may change.
