$20 Android Smartphone Possible from ARM

With new high end Android smartphones being released everyday, the competition for the best flagship phone with huge specs has reached its height. On the other hand there are very less number of Android smartphones which are low in specs and affordable for everyone. ARM has finally noticed this point and they decided to launch a new Smartphone just for $20 !

ARM $20 SMARTPHONE

The new $20 smartphone is expected to run on Android which will provide a easier usability and high customization. This low-end smarthphone will include single core ARM Cortex A5 processor which is fast enough for normal usage of a smartphone. It supports 2.5G internet data, which is acceptable for a smartphone of such low price.

For countries where smartphones are the main source of traffic for Internet, this invention would prove to be a big boost. The new cheap smartphone will help millions to access Internet who normally were happy with SMS. Some recent reports also says that most users are not interested in buying high end smartphones from Apple, Samsung, HTC etc, This report quickly entered minds of Motorola and they came with a cheap Smartphone running latest version of Android, the Moto G. It was a great success as it was sold in many countries in huge numbers immediately after its launch.

This smartphone running on Android can be predicted to have a few hundred megabytes of RAM. With a single core ARM Cortex A5 processor, we can expect only around 4GB of storage which is quite enough for normal usage of a phone. Moreover, this device is first of its kind, targeting totally different group of people than what most of smartphone brands do. Although there are few low budget Android devices like the Moto G, Android was running only on mid to high range phones. According to the reports, this phone should be a success in implementing Android on every price range of Smartphones.

Reports say that this smartphone will be available in market within few months. This phone will be a success in parts of the world where the smartphone markets aren’t that developed. Anyway, a $20 smartphone with Android can catch anyone’s attention.

Remember that strange guy from high-school who never seems to be paying any attention to classes and is completely absorbed by his doodles and sketches? That’s was me 14 years ago. I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember - according to my mom, since I was in diapers - and that has never changed - except for the diaper part. For a very long time I thought that animations and graphic design are my calling, but two years ago I got side-tracked and started building an interactive website with a couple of friends. It received instant gratification from fellow internet users, and that’s when I realized that the virtual medium is where I belong. I can freely share my passions with others, work on ingenious new projects and find the most fascinating information about, well, everything. I spend most of my free time writing reviews for crazy gadgets on ArgyllFreePress, I work as an interactive designer for an independent firm and I also received my Fine Arts degree from the University of Oxford.
