Millet appoints Indian product director, says he is willing to join Android on

Former Google vice President Hugo Barra, the current global vice president of Millet, revealed yesterday on personal Google + and Twitter that Millet had appointed Jai Mani as the head of product in India. In an interview with Indiatoday, Hugo Barra said Millet is willing to join Google-led Android One Low-cost smartphone program.

Jai Mani, a member of many of Google's Indian employees, appeared at the I/O Conference as assistant to Hugo Barra. Since 2011-2013, he has been in the role of Google Play strategy and analysis assistant, and then resigned to join a start-up company. Hugo Barra the Jai Mani as his "best memorial to the first anniversary of Asia."

According to India Times, Millet is currently in India to sell a series of new products:

After selling 90,000 sets of millet 3 and 150,000 tower red M 1S, the red meter note is also about to land in the Indian market. and the current 4G version of Millet 4 is being tested in India and will be sold in India by the end of the year. (Mainstream operators in India will use LTE as a 4G standard.) )

Many people put Millet's current momentum in India against Google's Android one plan. The latter, which now has a couple of homegrown brands in the Indian market, has launched an Android one smartphone, but has been configured to lag behind the red-meter 1S, at a price higher than the red-meter 1S of Rs. 5999. Google announced a list of successor partners HTC, TCL, Lenovo and Panasonic, no millet.

But Hugo Barra released goodwill to his old club, offering a second option for consumers to pick up the native ROM on the millet with Android one. He recalls that he was personally involved in Android One's plan, thinking it was a great product and loved it. But he admits that cooperation with Google has not been discussed in any detail or timetable.
