Now, Google has expanded the list by adding 13 more new devices from already existing OEMs such as Huawei, Nokia, Sony, and the new entrants – Sharp and Sonim.

By this, the program has tucked in a total of 39 devices ranging across various popular Android OEMs. They’re successful in making there place to the elite list since these devices satisfy the following conditions to be deemed as Android Enterprise Recommended.
