HTC Phones - Google : 18-20 Android Phones Will Be Released This Year

Andy Rubin, Google’s senior director for Mobile Platforms, told reporters that 18-20 Android Phones is coming this year on Google I/O. And the most manufacturers include HTC, Samsung, LG, Sony Ericsson, Motorola and Huawei. But Rubin also further clarified the three flavors of Android which break down as follows:

• Google-free: Free to download version of Android without Google applications like Gmail or Google Calendar. Access to Android applications is at the whimsical fancy of the manufacturer.
• Strings attached: Same as above but manufacturers sign a distribution agreement with Google and pre-install the Google applications. Of Rubin’s possible 20 phones, 12 to 14 fall into this category
• The Google Experience: Phones featuring the Google logo with all Google apps installed and includes unrestricted access (neither the carrier nor handset maker can block applications they find objectionable) to the Android market. 5 or 6 of the 20, Android phone mentioned by Rubin will deliver the full Google Experience as god and Sergey designed it.
