| Nokia X Android Phone |
It has been widely discussed ever since the news leaked out about 6 months ago. Even in the midst of the Microsoft Acquisition Nokia was secretly working towards developing an entry level Android Phone.
Nokia has finally released it to the world in the form of the X series of phones. These phones look like the ASHA and the entry level lumia phone's but under the hood is Nokia's very own rendition of Android.
The three smartphones on offer are called the Nokia X, Nokia X+, and Nokia XL. There’s actually little difference between the trio. The processor inside is a Snapdragon S4 dual-core running at 1GHz, the display resolution is 800 x 480, and internal storage is set at 4GB. The X is the lowest-end device and has 512MB RAM, 4-inch display, and a 3MP camera. The X+ increases the RAM to 768MB, but keeps everything else the same. The XL just bumps the screen size up to 5-inches and adds a 5MP rear and 2MP front-facing cameras.
Here is the official launch video of Nokia X.
The price of all three smartphones is very low. The X is around $122, the X+ $136, and XL $149. Both the X and X+ will be available in bright green, bright red, cyan, yellow, black and white. The XL in bright green, orange, cyan, yellow, black and white.
The UI looks very much like the windows phone 8 UI. We can clearly feel that Nokia is encouraging users to use the tile based user interface within the comfort of the Android eco-system. This move will maybe bring more users to WP once all the Andorid and apple apps are available in the Microsoft Biosphere.
