General Mobile GM 5 is the 1st Android One Phone to Ship with Nougat

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a new Android One smartphone announced. Google had actually removed the Android One section from the official Android website (now the old URL simply redirects to the homepage of Android.com), so many were wondering what the future held for Google’s experimental Android project.

Some thought that it would be abandoned like we saw with the Google Play Edition phones, while others were holding onto hope that we would see more Android One products launched.

Android One had a goal of letting smartphone OEMs focus solely on the hardware so Google could take full control of the software. To accomplish this though, Google had strict guidelines as to what type of hardware would be allowed in the phone, as well as how much the smartphone OEM could charge for it. Sadly, this vision was not as successful as some had wanted and it forced Google to be more open with their rules and guidelines of the hardware and its pricing.

General Mobile has just announced the latest Android One smartphone and it is called the GM 5. The device will be available in Gold, Black and Space Gray colors and it will be the first Android One smartphone to ship with Android 7.0 Nougat. The General Mobile GM 5 has a 5″ 720p display with Gorilla Glass 4 protection, a Snapdragon 410 SoC, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, microSD card slot, 5MP front-facing camer, a 13MP rear camera, the option of 1 or 2 SIM slots, and a 2,500mAh capacity battery.

The General Mobile GM 5 will be marketed for the internal market and will be sold in countries including Azerbaijan, Albania, Afghanistan, Belgium, Bosnia, Croatia, Cyprus, Georgia, Ghana, Greece, Iraq, Kenya, Luxembourg, Moldova, Netherlands, Pakistan, Serbia, Tunisia, Turkey, and Uzbekistan. Pricing has yet to be revealed, but we will learn more when it is made available for purchase later this month.
