Google on Friday confirmed that it had ditched upgrade pricing for its Nexus One smartphone and will issue $100 refunds to those T-Mobile customers who paid more.
Customers have the option to purchase a Nexus One with a two-year T-Mobile contract for $279 or without a contract for $529. Existing T-Mobile customers who opted to upgrade to a Nexus One, however, were originally charged $379 to make the change.

“We worked with T-Mobile and are now able to offer the higher upgrade discount to all existing fully eligible T-Mobile subscribers,” Google said in a statement. “This price is now $279. Refunds will be granted to all eligible subscribers who previously purchased the Nexus One at $379. This doesn’t affect any eligible customers who bought the phone for $279.”
