ANDROID ENTERPRISE RECOMMENDED: Everything you need to know.

Android's open source nature means that just about any OEM can use the operating system to power its hardware, and while this is great for a large amount of consumer choice, it also results in the market feeling a bit flooded and overwhelming at times.



If you're buying a phone for work/business purposes, you want to make sure you get something that's going to stay up-to-date with the latest software, have the most recent security patches, and isn't tied down by a heap of carrier bloatware.

To aid you in your quest for finding these phones, Google created Android Enterprise Recommended. Here's everything you need to know about it!

What is Android Enterprise Recommended?

Android Enterprise Recommended was first announced on February 21, 2018, and as the name of the program suggests, it was created with enterprise buyers in mind — not the average, everyday consumer.

Android Enterprise Recommended was created with the main goal of curating the best Android phones from manufacturers that are committed to keeping them secure and easy to deploy to a large workforce.

Google has a list of STRICT REQUIREMENTS each phone must follow.


Not any phone can get into Android Enterprise Recommended, and that's a good thing. Before a device can enter the program, it needs to check off a list of requirements created by Google so businesses are 100% sure that it'll work exactly the way they need it to.

Once a phone meets all of the criteria, it's officially added to the list of Android Enterprise Recommended products. Google initially launched the program with just 22 devices, but it's steadily growing all the time as new hardware is released.

As it stands right now, there are only 39 smartphones approved. Here are the top phones/tablets supported by Android Enterprise Recommended:
