Android One handsets will cost between 7,000 and 10,000 INR ($115 – $165). The are varied because the Android One is set for Minimum Hardware specs but manufacturers are using much better specs then that so there’s a minimal hike in the price.

Further to add something new, it’s said that Android One smartphones will be updated to Android L in October.

“Advantages of screen size and Google updates could make a difference to these smartphones offering better performance to what Indian buyers are accustomed to,” said PwC India’s Mohammad Chowdhury.
