Google confirmed that it’s going to enter the wireless carrier business, but don’t expect to ditch your AT&T or Verizon contract for one with the search giant. Instead, Google characterizes its still-to-launch wireless plans as a small-scale effort in which it will work with U.S. carriers to improve service.

Speaking at a Mobile World Congress event in Barcelona today Google confirmed that it would start offering services for mobile users later this year. Specifics on what exactly Google plans to provide are expected “in the next few months,”

The announcement confirms a January report from The Information that Google was looking to sell voice plans to consumers. That report claimed Google’s entry into the wireless business would be aimed at lowering prices and improving the customer experience.

Google would be walking a fine line by creating a wireless service, since wireless providers such as AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint are also its partners. Google has already been in talks with carriers and is even working with some of them on its wireless efforts. “Carriers in the U.S. are what powers most of our Android phones, and that model works really well for us.”
