Only 80k Nexus One Phones Sold In The First Month
The Nexus One from Google might have had plenty of hype in the build up to its official announcement, but it seems that despite that, initial sales haven’t reflected that hype. According to analyst firm Flurry Inc., Google sold just 80,000 units of the device during its first month of being on sale. whether you want a comparison, The Motorola Droid sold 525,000 units and the iPhone sold 600,000 units on their first months respectively. Speculation is that that could be due to Google selling the phone online, and not offering it for sale directly through a wireless service provider. Aside from
that, the lack of Nexus One advertising plus might have been a contributing factor, particularly when you take into history the number of web ads available for the Droid and iPhone. That being said, Google has come up with a rather interesting series of videos on the creation of the Nexus One, so possibly that will help.Permalink: Only 80k Nexus One Phones Sold In The First Month from Ubergizmo | Hot: Nexus One Review
