Is Android One now ready for prime time?

Google has sent out invites to press for an event in India on September 15. While the invite doesn’t really reveal any details and simply asks participants to block off Monday, from 12 noon onwards, it’s widely believed that the event is related to Google’s Android One initiative.

Android One is Google’s way of trying to make a more pleasant Android experience by trying to standardize hardware and more importantly, software used in devices under the initiative, which should cut down on costs. Devices under Android One will get timely Android updates from Google themselves, which makes them act kind of like Mountain View’s Nexus line of devices, as far as updating the OS is concerned.

There’s also a good chance that Android One is heading our way as well – we’ve spoken to several local brands before about Android One, and it seems that Google is in talks, although nothing concrete as of yet. This is good news, as like India, there’s a lot of locally branded companies utilizing the ODM business model here in the PH.
