I’m a Google Pixel expert. Here are the 7 best Black Friday accessory deals

In case you somehow missed it, Black Friday is upon us. 

It means now is a great time to buy a new phone, especially if you’re in the market for a Pixel. Google’s latest handsets are widely discounted, meaning you can find some brilliant bargains for a limited time.  

Need proof? Check out our dedicated best Black Friday Google Pixel deals round-up for a wide selection. 

But securing a new phone is just the beginning. To make the most of your new device, you’ll want to combine it with some great accessories. The good news is that there are some similarly brilliant deals on add-ons that work brilliantly with a recent Pixel phone. 

And as someone who’s reviewed the last four generations of Pixel phone and used one as my main device for several months, I know a thing or two about Google phones. Here are my top picks. 

A proper Qi2 charger…

The Pixel 10 series is the first major set of Android phones to feature built-in Qi2 wireless charging, so you might as well make the most of it! 

Google makes an official Pixelsnap Charger with Stand, but after thoroughly testing it, we wouldn’t recommend it, especially given its high £64.99/$69.99 price tag. 

Go for the Anker MagGo instead. With 15W output, it can hit the maximum charging speeds of the Pixel 10, 10 Pro and 10 Pro Fold, with only the 10 Pro XL being able to reach 25W. 

It’s also very versatile. The MagGo is compatible with any Qi2 phone (including the iPhone), and the main attachment can rotate a full 360 degrees, making it great for hands-free calls or watching videos. You can even use it to turn your phone into a bedside clock. 

At just £23.99 for Black Friday, it’s 31% off, and a fraction of the cost of the official Pixelsnap Qi2 charging stand. 

…or make full use of those wired fast charging speeds

Wireless charging is great for convenience, but sometimes I just need the fastest charging possible. The Pixel 10 series tops out at 45W, which isn’t exactly market leading, but it’s worth making the most of it. 

Again, Anker is the brand I’d recommend here. Its 45W Nano USB-C charger is a compact yet powerful solution that will get you back up and running in no time. 

There are plenty of no-name charger brands on Amazon, but Anker is one we’ve tested extensively, and it can definitely be trusted.  

And this Black Friday deal saves you 28% compared to full price. At just £17.99, you could even buy one for every room. 

Protection for your screen and camera lenses…

Modern phones are more durable than ever, but the displays remain a common point of weakness. Even if it doesn’t shatter, there’s a strong chance that your Pixel’s display will be damaged at some point, so why not protect against that? 

There are loads of screen protectors to choose from, but I’d recommend Spigen’s Glas.tR. Confusing name aside, its tempered glass build boasts a 9H hardness rating, meaning it’s highly resistant to scratches. 

At just £13.99 for the Pixel 9a, £14.94 for the Pixel 9/10 Pro XL and £15.59 for the Pixel 9/10 and 9/10 Pro, this is a Black Friday bargain you don’t want to miss. 

And why not boost the protection further with a dedicated camera lens protector? The SPigen Glas.tR version of this has similar scratch-protecting properties, yet has no impact on photography. Both it and the screen protector feature ‘EZ Fit’ technology, making it much easier to apply than traditional screen protectors. 

With prices between £11 and £12 in the Black Friday sales, protecting your camera lenses feels like a no-brainer. 

…but don’t forget the rest of the phone!

The screen and cameras are now safe from damage, but the rest of the phone remains vulnerable! 

To remedy that, I’d highly recommend Google’s official case. The soft-touch silicone adds some much-needed grip to recent Pixel phones, while avoiding bulk and looking good in the process.

Crucially, it doesn’t impact Pixelsnap support, meaning you can keep the case on when wirelessly charging or connecting to other accessories. 

Of course, the Pixelsnap versions are only available for the Pixel 10 series, but with prices as low as £29.99 for the 10, 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL, it’s a big 40% Black Friday saving that just makes sense. 

A convenient car mount

For most people, our smartphones have replaced the sat nav in our cars, meaning you’ll need to find a place to mount it safely. 

Rather than putting it in a fiddly attachment or annoying case, you can make use of the Pixel 10 series’ built-in magnets to use a magnetic mount instead. 

Belkin’s BoostCharge is a great, inexpensive choice. It’s designed for MagSafe on the iPhone, but will work with any Qi2 device, including all of the Pixel 10 phones.

It costs just £17.48 in the Black Friday sales – that’s less than half its usual price. Alternatively, you can get a charger included with support for 15W speeds for £29.98, which is also 50% off. 

And soundtrack your whole experience

A pair of wireless earbuds might be the ultimate accessory for your Pixel phone.

And the latest Pixel Buds 2a are a great choice, combining a sleek design with strong sound quality and excellent noise cancellation. With built-in Gemini AI smarts and long battery life, they offer everything most people are looking for in a pair of Bluetooth buds. 

With a £50 discount in the Black Friday sales, you can save almost 39% compared to their launch price just a few weeks ago. At just £79, they’re superb value for money.
