As announced earlier Google phone is all set to hit the Indian markets this December!
Ajay Sharma, country manager, HTC (India), told Business Standard: “We would prefer a mobile operator tie-up to introduce the Google phone in India in December.â€
HTC’s G1 (the Google phone model) will cost more since “the Indian market does not work on the handset subsidy model".
“We expect to build volumes in India and the Android-based phone should make HTC a bigger player in the wireless handset market.â€
“We will decide the business model soon,†he further said.
The amazing thing is that it is labelled as a major competition to Apple's iPhone! There are chances that HTC would retail the phone at a price higher than the US price in the Indian markets.
There are speculations that it will be a network locked phone. But one interesting point to note is that HTC already has an exclusive partnership with Airtel!
