"Apple’s physical retail presence continues to extend across the globe; Microsoft has opened dozens of stores across North America, and is expected to soon open its first European store in London; even Samsung has opened a London 'flagship store' at the vast Westfield shopping complex to the east of the city.
Soon to join the party, it seems, is Google. While the company already operates branded kiosks within other retailers’ stores – such as Best Buy in the US and Currys-PC World in the UK – these are essentially just information centres, dedicated to showing off products and answering customers’ questions, with the actual transactions being handled by the larger store. According to 9to5Google, citing “an extremely reliable source”, the company is planning to open its first dedicated, full-size stores ahead of this year’s holiday season."
