Vodafone: Some Android Phones Could Appear Without Google
Vodafone have confirmed that they are currently looking at developing more Android phones to compliment their new HTC Magic handset, and that some future Android devices could appear without Google.
In an interview with Techradar.com, Vodafone’s Rachel Williams revealed that whilst the HTC Magic arrives bundled with all the well known Google services, future Android handsets may feature a more ‘basic’ package allowing networks to integrate their own clients software instead.
Williams also went on to confirm that more Vodafone Android phones were likely in the future, “We’re looking at other Android devices, by joining the Open Handset Alliance it shows our commitment [to ranging other devices using Android]“.
The Vodafone HTC Magic will be available in Vodafone UK stores from Friday 1 May, with a £5 discount on the £35 a month tariff available to customers that order the HTC Magic online.
