Google Nexus One Available from Vodafone Germany in February

Tweet

Vodafone has been rumored for a while now to bring the Google Nexus One to places it hasn’t already boldly gone to. The phone has been launched in the U.S., UK, Hong Kong and Singapore so far but customers in other markets are waiting impatiently for it despite whatever 3G troubles it might currently be going through.

According to a recent leak, Vodafone Germany is going to bring the Nexus One to its customers in February. Once on European soil the Nexus One will be priced in Euro and I guess that most people will want to stay away of the contract-free price. Sure $530 sounds very affordable, especially if you want to avoid those extra ETFs but when you translate that in Euros, some people might not be so happy about it.

Vodafone Germany hasn’t officially launched the Nexus One yet but the contract price has been leaked already. The handset is supposed to cost €149.90 or about $217 as long as you’re ready to ink a new 2-year Vodafone agreement.

If that’s going to be indeed the Nexus One price in Germany it’s likely that other markets in the European Union to adopt similar pricing schemes. However we have no signs from any carriers just yet so if Germany is not your home then you’ll have to wait some more for the Nexus One to become available. We’re also expecting Google to sell the phone on its own in various markets but it will take a while until Google sets everything up.

In the mean time we can only expect the Nexus One to sell better and better. According to reports Google moved only about 20,000 handsets in the first week which is an impressive number for Google’s first handset but definitely not comparable with the first week of other hot phones like the Motorola Droid or the iPhone 3GS. What do you say? Will you purchase a Google Nexus One?
