Google launches the Nexus 6 in more markets

While the Nexus 6 is no longer one of the newest smartphones around, it's only now that it's being released in some countries. More exactly, Google expanded the availability of its giant smartphone to 6 new markets across Europe: Austria, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Norway, and Portugal. With these new markets, the Nexus 6 is now available in a total of 21 countries. Customers can buy the Nexus 6, unlocked, via the new Google Store (which, of course, isn't available everywhere in the world).

Recently, Google updated the Nexus 6 to Android 5.1 Lollipop. The update is not a major one, mainly bringing performance enhancements.

Originally released in October 2014, the Google Nexus 6 is manufactured by Motorola, and, thanks to its 6-inch Quad HD display, it's the largest Nexus handset to date. The smartphone is powered by a quad-core Snapdragon 805 processor, while also featuring a 13 MP rear camera, 2 MP front-facing camera, 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB / 64 GB of internal memory, and a 3220 mAh battery.

I wonder why they doesn't just sell it globally through its online store, that would surely rise up the sales.

To control the production and sales. If the rates go crazy for the phone, then they got to buy more factories to make the phone, which means cost rises for the phone/profit margins get smaller. Overall, this technique is just better for a mid-high demand phone
