If you were in the market for a Nexus 6P, Google has given you a big reason to go ahead and take the plunge. Google has cut the price on its flagship Marshmallow smartphone by $50, making the entry-level 32GB model $449. The 64GB and 128GB models as a result fall to $499 and $599 respectively.

As if the lower pricing wasn’t enough, Google is also offering free overnight shipping for the Huawei-manufactured smartphone starting today. And since we’re in the holiday shopping season, Google is offering an extended return window for the Nexus 6P. Purchases made between now and December 25^th can be returned through January 22^nd, 2016. And to top it off, every Nexus 6P comes with a 90-day free subscription to Google Play Music.

As we previously mentioned, the Nexus 6P runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow, Google’s latest mobile operating system. It features some pretty stout internal hardware including a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 (v2.1) processor, 3GB of RAM, a 5.7-inch QHD AMOLED display, 12.3MP rear camera and 8MP front-facing camera. The Nexus 6P also comes with a USB-C connector for data transfers and charging along with a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor for unlocking the device and completing Android Pay transactions.
