Consistent with earlier leaks of promotional materials, Verizon officially announced today the availability of the Nexus 6 starting on March 12th. If it is any consolation for those who have been waiting, Verizon will release the Nexus 6 with Android 5.1 Lollipop out of the box, so users will benefit from the work Google has been doing to fine tune Lollipop since its release last fall.
As the leaks indicted, Verizon is pricing the Nexus at $249.99 with a 2-year contract. Buyers can also get it for $27.08 per month for 24 months on Verizon Edge. Consumers may not need much of any additional inducement to pick one up if they were already interested, but to help push people over the edge, Verizon is offering six months of access to Google Play Music All Access if the Nexus 6 is purchased before March 31st.
Verizon will start taking orders on-line on March 12th and the device should be available in stores starting on March 19th.
