Google has come up with an attractive deal for its flagship Pixel XL phone by offering free Google Home device with every purchase of the handset. This means you can get a $129 worth Google Home smart speaker free of cost if you purchase the device at $649 on Google Store.

The deal comes a few days after reports claimed that only about one million units of Google Pixel and Pixel XL have been sold so far, which is disappointing after all the hype it received for its features, especially camera.
