January has come and gone and the results of last months sales figures for the Google Nexus One are in. It appears that sales of the Google smartphone topped out at 80,000 units for the month. The trend appears to be a continuation of week one when Google saw 20,000 units sold.

For an ordinary smartphone, these figures would be considered respectable, but most people in the tech world had very high expectations of Google simply because, well, it’s Google. For comparisons sake, the original Apple iPhone that launched in June 2007 saw 600,000 units sold in its first month while the Motorola Droid saw 250,000 units sell in its first month back in November 2009.

All is not doom and gloom though. Remember, both the iPhone and the Droid had better mobile carrier support then the Nexus One which is restricted to T-Mobile. Additionally, although the sales figures haven’t been strong, they have been consistent through the month. If sales of the Google Nexus One can remain consistent until the Google phone gets picked up by Vodafone and Verizon this spring, we could see some much better numbers by the time summer roles around.
