Second-gen Android One smartphone likely to be unveiled next week
Earlier this month, there were reports that Google will launch a Lava-manufactured Android One smartphone in India on July 14, but that didn't happen. However, it now looks like the device will most probably be unveiled next week.
Lava has sent out press invites for an event on July 27. The image (see above) accompanying the invite effectively reads," Witness the Power of 1," where '1' is made up of what it looks like the features that the handset will offer.
There are already rumours that the local vendor's Iris X5 4G smartphone, which appeared in the GFX Benchmark database last week, could be the upcoming Android One device. Whatever the case, we'll get to know soon, as the announcement is expected to happen in a few days.
