Nokia officially launches its Android Phones

Nokia X aka Nokia Normandy has long been rumored about. This is Nokia’s first Android smartphone and it comes with heavily customized version of Android OS. What comes as a surprise is that Nokia has not launched just one device but has launched 3 devices overall running on a customized Android OS. The devices are named as Nokia X (Normandy), Nokia X+ and Nokia XL.

All the Nokia X android series of phones are powered by Dual-Core Snapdragon processor and runs a customized version of the popular Android Operating System. It is worth noting that Nokia X and Nokia X+do not have major differences, Nokia X is an entry level phone while Nokia X+ is a mid-ranger and has slightly larger RAM. Both Nokia X and X+ would have a 4-inch WVGA display while the Nokia XL will have a taller body and will feature a 5-inch display (resolution not know yet).

The Nokia XL will have a 5MP rear camera and a 2MP front facing camera for photography and video calling needs. All the Nokia X series of phone will not have Google Playstore on board, however for applications user can rely on the Nokia’s Android Store (AoL) and other third party app stores. These devices from Nokia are more like the Kindlefires from Amazon which are also not Google certified. It is worth waiting and looking at the kind of response Nokia gets for its Android phones.
The Nokia X is priced at 89 euros, Nokia X+ is priced at 99 euros while Nokia XL the 5-inch phablet is priced at 109 euros. Stay tuned for and we will update the Indian pricing as soon as the device is announced in India.
