Android Go could bring Oreo to smartphones as cheap as $30 in India starting this month*

Android Go is designed to make it possible for smartphone makers to produce ultra-cheap devices that can still run Google's latest OS.

Now, though, a report is claiming that Google is working with OEMs in India to get Android Go devices launched, including one that costs just $30...

Citing multiple anonymous sources, Factor Daily reports that Google is currently working with several OEMs in India to produce smartphones with Android Go based on Oreo.

However, taking a device down to just $30 would be impressive, as the average cost of a 4G phone in the country is generally about $100.

Dates for those phones to launch are still unclear, but Micromax's device is apparently launching "on Republic Day or around it," meaning it will probably arrive toward the end of the month.
