Google Nexus One Phone Now Available in Canada

Tuesday, March 16, 2010

It has finally been announced that Google's Nexus One phone is now available in Canada. Starting today, an additional version of the Nexus One is available from the Google web store that is compatible with AT&T’s 3G network. This new model can be purchased as an unlocked device without a service plan. In addition to AT&T’s 3G network, this device will also run on Rogers Wireless in Canada. According to Google:

Two versions of the device are currently offered. Both versions support four GSM radio frequencies (850/900/1800/1900), but the supported 3G/UMTS bands will differ depending on the version selected. When ordering, you'll be able to select either of the following devices:

3G coverage on networks that use the 850 MHz, 1900 MHz, and 2100 MHz frequency bands (recommended for use on AT&T in the US and Rogers Wireless in Canada)
3G coverage on networks that use the 900 MHz, AWS, and 2100 MHz frequency bands (recommended for use on T-Mobile in the US)

In addition, the Nexus One will deliver 2G/EDGE speeds on these networks and also supports WiFi.
These cover most major GSM mobile providers worldwide; however, if you're unsure of the bands supported by your mobile service provider, please contact your provider directly prior to purchase.

The Google Nexus One phone can be purchased here. According to cbc.ca:

In a blog post, Google explained that Canadians can choose from two versions of the Nexus One, each of which work on different 3G cellular frequencies. The version introduced in the United States in January works on T-Mobile's U.S. network. The new version introduced on Tuesday works on AT&T's network in the United States and on Rogers in Canada.
A spokesperson for Google Canada added that the Nexus One had been successfully tested on the Rogers and Wind Mobile networks, which use the same respective frequencies as AT&T and T-Mobile in the United States. She declined to say whether it would work on the new network recently rolled out by Bell and Telus, and could not say why the company chose to make two separate phones rather than one that works on both types of 3G frequencies.
"It's an ongoing project to extend the availability around the world," the spokesperson said. "We'll continue to launch more phones that work on different networks and providers."
