Google Nexus One to Be Available in India as a Stripped Down Version?

Indian Debut for a Cheaper Nexus One Could be Real

Rumors have it that a stripped down version of Google’s Nexus One could be launched in the Indian market and probably other emerging markets, in the near future. If our sources are correct, this cheaper Nexus One will be slimmer (we have nothing against thinner than 11.5 mm) and will have downgraded specifications compared to the original model.

We have absolutely no idea what “near future” means or if the Indian Nexus One will have the same 5 megapixel camera, the same uber-fast 1GHz Snapdragon processor or if the large 3.7-inch touchscreen stays. The scaled down Nexus One will probably be a compromise meant to slash manufacturing costs making it a more affordable model, but we still have questions . Who will sell the mobile phone in India (probably NTT DoCoMo) and will they promise cheap data plans, too, because otherwise, it may not be worth bringing it to these parts of the world.

Will it be called Google Nexus One Mini (seen a trend these days to bring Mini version) and will the Search giant offer the same updates they do for the original?

So what do you guys think, is there a market for the Nexus One to be released in India?

      I really don’t think that nexus one will come to India as google has no plans to launch any other phone like nexus..people who might be waiting for this phone in India should get it from other sources..there will not be any other models or Nexus 2 versions etc for this phone.

      PS: Google launched this phone to get the market overview for there Andriod software. They team working on the OS wants to get the OS to the market. Now, they have clearly mentioned that they doesn’t have any further plans for the phones.

      Official words : Yes, we done it with phone. Now stop it and start focus on Andriod !!

      Please stop faking this news all over the forums/blogs as people will led to misleading and they keep waiting for this awesome device.

      Offcourse, Nexus one will be the first and last model of Google but it will be the first model that will get upgrade to future versions of Andriod’s as compared to HTC, Samsung and other Manufactures !
