Google unveils Nexus One

Google today unveiled a new way for consumers to purchase an Android mobile phone, a web store hosted by Google. The company is also launching the first phone offered through this new model, called the Nexus One, which combines the latest in hardware from HTC Corporation with the newest Android software.

“The goal of Google’s new consumer channel is to provide an efficient way to connect Google’s online users with selected Android phones,” the company said. “The online experience of the web store has been designed with a focus on simplicity.

Through the online web store, consumers can buy the Nexus One without service – meaning any GSM network SIM card can be inserted into the device. Alternatively, the phone can be purchased with service from one of Google’s operator partners.

“As new phones come to market through this channel, consumers will benefit from the ability to match a phone of their choice with the service plan that best meets their needs.”

Operator prices and plan details will be featured on the site.
