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]
Vivo (smartphone) Registered for the first time in 2009, Vivo has since become registered in over 100 countries around the world. Vivo began its international expansion in 2014 when it entered the Thai market.[6] The company quickly followed this up by launching in India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Myanmar, and the Philippines.[7][8][9][10]
