Google came out with the initial version of the device in 2013. Interestingly, today that original Pixel is not visible on the Google Store.

But hey, for the moment you can get free shipping on the devices from the Google Store, which Google introduced today as a place to explore and buy devices. Previously, the Google Play Store lumped devices together with apps and games.
