What does the average unlocked Android device cost there? In Thailand, most Android phones are still USD $400+. Oddly enough, last-gen Blackberry devices are the most popular smartphones (semi-smartphone) here since they're often USD $150-$200 unlocked. The HTC tattoo is cheaper, as are a couple others, but for the most part, Android is nearly as premium as iOS here.

Starts at about $150; decent ones are about $300. (http://www.flipkart.com/android-all-mobiles?query=android...).

Neat; I'll have to check and see if prices are down here or not. Haven't checked in several months.

The LG Optimus [V/S/U] (LG 670) is a great phone for the price - it can be had in the US for $130 without a contract.
