GeeksPhone has now announced new specs for their Android ONE smartphone. The GeeksPhone One is probably the first Android phone coming from Spain. Back in June, GeeksPhone unveiled the new Cupcake packing Android GeeksPhone One.
Things have certainly changed for the ONE along its journey through development. Some of the more interesting features have been dropped, but replaced with new ones to compensate.
AndroidGuys understands the One will tentatively cost 260 Euros ($378) without a contract and should be available independently as an unlocked smartphone as well as through smaller MVNOs (mobile virtual network operators) that should discount the cost.
