Almost exactly 20 years to the day after Apple opened its first retail store, Google is finally following suit.
The company announced Thursday that it is opening its first physical retail store, called Google Store, this summer in New York City.

Some of the items for sale will include Pixel phones, Nest products, Fitbit devices and Pixelbooks.
