Google\u2019s Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X continue to make their rounds, with the company\u2019s new aluminum metal design and stellar cameras winning a war that many have had with Google\u2019s Nexus line for some time. As part of Google\u2019s commitment to its Nexus line, the company decided to launch its Nexus Protect protection plan for its smartphones. The Nexus Protect plans provide 1 year manufacturing warranty to add to the standard year already provided with the device, and covers two accident repairs within a two-year timeframe.<\/p>\n
Google\u2019s Nexus devices have been something of a financial risk for buyers who\u2019ve been intrigued by what Google has to offer, but who would buy a smartphone for $450 in the US when there\u2019s no smartphone insurance in place to protect such an investment? That doesn\u2019t mean that some haven\u2019t taken the plunge despite the financial risk, due to the fact that Google\u2019s fast, quick updates for Nexus devices are something that few non-Google Android buyers experience. Motorola fans in the US have had the privilege, but Motorola\u2019s acquisition by Lenovo may just put an end to the Motorola appeal and turn some former Motorola faithful back to Google\u2019s Nexus lineup once more.<\/p>\n
Google\u2019s Nexus Protect plans have been in place for the US since the company made its announcement, but Google has now decided to stretch its protection plans to Canada. Via the company\u2019s Google+ page earlier this week, Google made the announcement: \u201cThis just in: +Nexus Protect is now available in Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n
For now, only the US and Canada can partake of Google\u2019s smartphone protection plans. We don\u2019t know if Google plans to extend this to other countries, but for now, the North American continent can safely enjoy the Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X \u2013 all while knowing that these devices, thanks to Google, are now covered for accidents.<\/p>\n
