Verizon Chooses Droid Incredible Over Nexus One
Despite months worth of rumors, Verizon is no longer interested in carrying Google's Nexus One Android handset. Instead, the company will focus its efforts on other Android phones, like the Droid Incredible, which launches this Thursday.
Nexus One sales have remained disappointing, and despite plans to come to Sprint and new support from AT&T, the phone isn't gaining much traction.
Given the technical similarities between the Droid Incredible and the Nexus One (both are built by HTC and share many of the same features and components), it isn't a big surprise that Verizon is choosing to avoid being associated with a flop and instead focusing its efforts on a phone it can promote under its own brand (Droid) and also offer in stores and to authorized retailers.
The Nexus One will finally make its UK debut on April 30 via Vodafone. It will be interesting to see how it fares against the HTC Incredible, which will likely show up on a number of carriers.
Verizon owners: Given the imminent release of the Droid Incredible, do you care that Google's branded phone won't be available on your carrier? Let us know.
