Every smartphone worth its salt deserves an unboxing ceremony and custody-on video. It just doesn’t feel functionary until we actually see the French telephone emerging from the packaging whence it came. The latest smartphone to get that official “tactile property” is none other than the Nexus One (aka Google Phone). Thanks to Twitter user Phillm, we have some unboxing pics of Google (NSDQ: GOOG)’s own-branded Android phone and a short little video to drool over.
The pics show the handset packaged in a familiar HTC box branded only with the Google logo and the “Nexus One” moniker. The prat of the phone is adorned with a little Android robot holding a QR code flagstone. The QR computer code leads to humanoid.com/holidays, which automatically redirects you to Google’s Android website. If, however, you hit up the linkup with a Nexus One, you’ll be treated to a memory card game. The video recording also shows the Nexus One’s animated homescreen in military action (observation the “light beams” racing across the background). All in all, the Google Phone is a sleek Android phone with the feature-set to backing its namesake.
So far, we know that the Nexus One is running Android 2.1 OS and packs a 1Ghz mainframe, 5-megapixel camera, GPS, WiFi and a massive capacitive touchscreen. We also know that it volition be launched in early 2010 from Google and possibly T-Mobile River (NYSE: DT) (although a CDMA version is supposed to be in the works as well). All that’s left field is for Google to officially launching the darn matter. CES Las Vegas 2010 sounds as good a time as any.
