Android One incoming? Google India event penned for 15 September

Google has much to say about Android One at I/O earlier this year, but not much was said after, until now. The Mountain View-based company has sent invites to an event taking place in India 15 September, rumoured to be the launch of its Android One platform.

Back in June, Karbonn and Spice were two phone manufacturers signed up to the programme, which will benefit both manufacturers — keeping costs of smartphones down thanks to Google’s shared resources — and Google itself — the company seeks control of the enormous untapped budget smartphone market.

We have seen a plethora of mobiles recently infiltrating world markets, but none have been all that exciting.

Sundar Pichai, Senior VP, will likely make a special appearance, but that’s about all we know thus far.
