You can **w buy a
Nest thermostat on
Google Play for $249
The marriage between
Google and
Nest just got even more official. As
Android Police points out,
Google has
started selling Nest thermostats on its
Google Play store starting at $249. And given that it's Earth Day and that
Nest is an eco-friendly, energy-saving thermostat,
Google says that it will plant a tree for every
Nest unit sold on Tuesday. Nest, which was founded by former Apple exec Tony Fadell, was
acquired by Google earlier this year for $3.2 billion.*Earlier reports have indicated that
Google isn't interested in
Nest just for its smart thermostats
but also for its team's design prowess*that won it accolades from several Apple fans over the years.
