Samsung and Android Go together? Yes, you read that right. It seems the initial rumors of Samsung introducing a stock Android experience on a low-end phone might be coming true after all. As reported before, for the time being the device is being prepared for the Indian market only. But the latest piece of info coming from SamMobile suggests that the device will be launched in several other markets as well.
The device which is believed to be the Android Go device has the model number SM-J260G, which has already been confirmed through leaks.
The SM-J260F is a device aimed at the United Kingdom, Uzbekistan, Caucasus Countries, Germany, Italy, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, France and Poland while the SM-J260M will be dedicated to Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Trinidad and Tobago, Peru, Panada and Paraguay. In addition, the SM-J260G should be available in Cambodia, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam as well.
With a release on such big scale, the company is apparently aiming to find out how different markets react to the stock Android experience on a low-cost Samsung device. Only time will tell how well the market will adopt the device and if it’s worth investing in devices powered by Android Go, in the near future.
