NEW DELHI: Buoyed by the initial response to Android One smartphones, chipmaker MediaTek has said it expects as many as two million handsets to be sold this year in India, the world’s second largest market for mobile phones.
The Taiwan-headquartered company has partnered with US-based tech giant Google on Android One, an initiative to provide a family of high-quality yet affordable Android devices for consumers in emerging markets like India.
Yesterday, Google launched three devices in partnership with Micromax, Karbonn and Spice under the Android One initiative. India is the first country to have the Android One handsets, priced at Rs 6,399 onwards.
