Guys and girls waiting for Android One empowered smartphones, we have got some good news for you people. THE ECONOMIC TIMES, couple of days back reported that, Google and smartphone manufacturers based in India, like Micromax, Karbonn and Spice will be soon launching their own devices running Google's new part of mobile operating system, announced back in June, at their year's Google Annual I/O Developers Conference in San Francisco.
The phone originators are expected to price the new smartphones in a range between ₹ 7000 to 10000 ($116 to 166), that's definitely more than what Google promised us in June, where it should have been under $100 (₹ 6035). It is also said that, the success of Android One platform is very critical for Google at this point of time, as it should bring more budget-friendly seeking consumers to their low-level software system. "Android One is setting minimum hardware and software standards for the three vendors, who are adding or improving upon them in future devices under the Android One umbrella," people directly involved in the development of the smartphones said. "The operating system on the Android One devices will be upgraded to Android L in October. This upgrade will allow users to have better browsing and gaming experience at affordable prices, making the smartphones attractive buys for first-time buyers and those wanting to replace their existing phones."
