when was first android phone launched in india
Android (operating system) In June 2014, Google announced Android One, a set of "hardware reference models" that would "allow [device makers] to easily create high-quality phones at low costs", designed for consumers in developing countries.[49][50][51] In September, Google announced the first set of Android One phones for release in India.[52][53] However, Recode reported in June 2015 that the project was "a disappointment", citing "reluctant consumers and manufacturing partners" and "misfires from the search company that has never quite cracked hardware".[54] Plans to relaunch Android One surfaced in August 2015,[55] with Africa announced as the next location for the program a week later.[56][57] A report from The Information in January 2017 stated that Google is expanding its low-cost Android One program into the United States, although The Verge notes that the company will presumably not produce the actual devices itself.[58][59]
