Google One has just launched a new “Lite” plan in India (Source), offering a more budget-friendly cloud storage option. This new plan provides 30GB of storage for Rs 59 (0.70$ approx) per month, making it an appealing choice for those who need a bit more space than the free 15GB offered by Google but don’t require the 100GB provided by the existing Google One Basic plan.
Google One is Google’s cloud subscription service that enhances your storage for Google Photos, Drive, and Gmail. The Basic plan, which is currently more widely available, costs more and gives you 100GB of storage, along with perks such as the ability to share the plan with up to five family members. In comparison, the new Lite plan is designed for users who don’t need as much space and prefer a lower cost.
In addition to the affordable pricing, Google is offering a one-month free trial for the Lite plan. This allows users to test the storage and see if it fits their needs before committing to the monthly fee. It’s a great way for those on the fence to try out the service without any immediate financial commitment.
However, it’s important to note that this Lite plan is currently being tested and is available to only a limited number of users. If you’re interested and don’t see the Lite plan as an option yet, it may not be available for your account or region at this time.
Google often tests new features and plans with a small group before a wider rollout, so it could take some time before the Lite plan becomes available to everyone.
Google will likely expand availability based on user feedback and testing results, so the Lite plan could become more widely accessible in the future.
