Google Finally Comes Clean
There has been months of speculation in regards to Google and its Android Smartphone, the Google Nexus One. During this time, not much concrete information was available and Google was being extremely tight-lipped about the phone, its specs and its release date. That has finally changed. Google finally allowed the world to see what blogger and techies have been discussing debating, extolling and speculating (at least in the tech world), about for months. The Nexus One was unveiled at the company’s headquarters in Mountain View, California January 5th, 2010. The unveiling was an invitation only press event. From all accounts, it went very well and people definitely liked what they saw
Google worked with HTC to create and manufacture the Nexus One. It is a touch screen Android with very impressive specs. It can be purchased directly from Google and will also be sold by T-Mobile in the United States. The phone will then be available in Europe via Vodafone. Verizon will finally get the chance to sell it in the U.S after T-Mobile has first shot at it.
The price of the Nexus One when purchased directly from Google will be more expensive then if it is bought from one of the phone carriers. For example, Google is selling the phone for $529 (£331). If a person chooses to go with T-Mobile, this price falls to only $179 (£112). Individuals will need to sign a contract with T-Mobile in order to qualify for this deep discount.
Since the Nexus One has been officially unveiled fans have finally been able to review the actual specs. There had been plenty rumors concerning them. After looking at the phones and reading the updated and official reviews, I must say many of the rumors were true. The mobile does come with a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash. The display is 3.7 inches and a touch screen. Other notable specs include noise cancellation, compass, GPS, light sensor and voice recognition. The phone runs on a 1 GHz snapdragon processor which is amongst the fastest in the industry.
