UPDATE: The phone will be sold as an unlocked one. However, users on Airtel will be eligible for free data access.
HTC has finally announced Magic, India’s first Android phone in partnership with Airtel. It still is the same Magic under the hood but Airtel brings in few of its own features like Portfolio Manager, Hello Tune Manager, Weather Channel, Mobshare etc.
Airtel will sell the phone for Rs. 29,900 and will allow users to avail 100MB of free data download for the first six months. I won’t say if 100MB is enough or not but hey, you’ll get double the months of what users get with N97 on Vodafone.
