Google Shops pop up in BestBuy locations to strengthen Pixel's retail presence

Google, being a consumer electronics company now, is going the whole nine yards. It bought a full front page ad in USA Today and other publications in time for the Pixel launch, and so on. Due to the total dearth of physical stores you can grab the Pixels from, if we don't count Verizon's shops, Google also opened a pop-up store in New York on October 20, to sell all the new and old #madebygoogle products there.

It is not only for sales purposes, though, but actually doubles as a place you would be able to physically examine the gear, and toy around with it before you decide to pull the trigger, and New York is one of the most visible electronics markets in the world, so Google's pop-up store there is certainly a bright idea likely to gather extra publicity for the new products.
