?Google is facing a European investigation into how it promoted the Android operating system to smartphone manufacturers.
According to documents seen by the Financial Times, the European Union's antitrust investion has focused on allegations of anti-competitive deals being struck between Google and smartphone providers.
The specifics of the allegations apparently include offering Android OS licenses at below cost and influencing smartphone manufacturers to cancel or delay handset launches based on actions by other manufacturers.
The probe is currently at a preliminary stage and hasn't been formallised into an official investigation.
It is also understood to be looking at the conditions that Google attaches to the OS to permit the use of Google related services on the handsets, such as Gmail and its maps service.
