After months of speculations, Google finally unveiled the latest addition to its Nexus family, the Nexus 6 from Motorola.

According to the Google Play Store, the highly anticipated phablet allegedly has a price tag of $649 for a 32-GB unit without a network contract, while the unlocked 64-GB version will be sold at $699.

DroidLife reported that the latest Google phablet will be offered by all major U.S. network carriers, including Sprint, AT&T, Verizon, US Cellular, and T-Mobile.

The earlier Nexus models were hardly offered by the top American mobile network providers, but BGR reported that the new Nexus 6 will not suffer the same fate, as the networks will start the pre-order period for the 5.9-inch smartphone in late October.

Sprint already put up a webpage dedicated to Nexus 6, which indicates that the Google smartphone will come to their network soon. AT&T made the same move as well, and announced that they are carrying the Nexus 6 in their network.

Meanwhile, T-Mobile went the extra mile and put up a sign-in page for those who want to be notified once the device is already available to the public. Verizon and US Cellular still have to make the announcements about its Nexus 6.

Other details, such as the contract and pricing information, are still undisclosed for most networks. Yet, T-Mobile announced that they will offer a monthly installment deal that will require a two-year contract and $27.08 monthly fee without any down payments.

International Business Times mentioned that after the pre-order phase rolls out at the end of October, shipping of Nexus 6 phones will begin on Nov. 12.

Nexus 6 will be one of the two new devices from Google that will run using the latest Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system. The other one will be the Nexus 9, which is also said to be released by major network carriers.
