Google phone to cost above Rs 20,000

Excited about the new Google phone? Wondering when the phone will hit Indian shores? Soon. HTC is planning to roll out Google Android-powered phone in India by December end.

According to a business daily, Taiwan-based cellphone major is currently in talks with a leading service provider in India. The company which has an exclusive partnership to sell phones in India with Airtel said that it is open to selling the phone through independent retail channels. The business model is still under consideration.

The phone which has widely being termed as Google's rival to Apple iPhone was launched by TMobile in US earlier this week. Google phone is priced at $179, $20 less than the 3G iPhone. It is, however, expected that the phone may sport a higher price tag in India, a pattern also witnessed in the pricing of 3G iPhone in the country. Apple's 3G iPhone sells for $199 8GB in US as compared to Rs 31,000 for 8GB in India. The G1 phone boasts of touchscreen, a computer-like keyboard and has Google's new open operating system, Android. It also hosts an array of multimedia features similar to Apple's iPhone and RIM's BlackBerry. The phone has a trackball for navigation, high-speed Internet browsing, WiFi, email, instant messaging and SMS texting. The phone functions on 3G network and is specially designed to offer high-speed Internet surfing. It also has a Global Positioning System (GPS), a 3 megapixel camera with photo-sharing capability and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, a feature lacking on the iPhone. Like iPhone, in G1 users cannot shoot video. There's also a feature by which Gmail users will get instant notification whenever they receive a new message in their inbox. Available in three colors -- black, white and brown -- it includes familiar Google services, such as Google Maps, Gmail and YouTube. Like the iPhone and other smartphones, the device is meant to broaden the appeal of Web surfing on the go. Research firm Strategy Analytics has predicted that the G1 could sell 400,000 units by the end of 2008, accounting for 4 per cent of the smartphone market. Link to this post:
