While pre-orders for the Nexus 6 from Google kicked off earlier today, it was but a matter of minutes before the smartphone was sold out. Just like that, which bodes well for Google and Motorola, of course. After all, it is Motorola who are the ones behind the Nexus 6 device that runs on the latest version of Android, which would be Android 5.0 Lollipop.
What are the reasons behind the fast selling out of the pre-orders, taking just minutes for it to happen? Perhaps it could be attributed to limited availability or some might say that it is high demand, or who knows – it could even be both? Either way, it shows that there is quite an interest in the Nexus 6.
Just a quick refresher – the Google Nexus 6 will be priced at $649 a pop which is rather expensive when one makes comparisons to its predecessors, where those tend to be marketed as powerful devices that do not break the bank. Those who live in the US and managed to pick up the Nexus 6 from the Play Store before the end of this year will be eligible for a free Google Play Music subscription, although we look forward with interest to see when will Google open up its pre-orders for the Nexus 6 again.
