Nokia is revered by several to the present day for the level of build quality of its devices, and yet that did nothelp the company when it was caught off guard by the stratospheric surge in demand for smartphones. severalthought that the Finnish company made all the incorrect selections, particularly when it decided to go for infant of an software in Windows Phone. The thought of what Nokia might have been like if it instead a minimum of had weasel-worded its bets, and adopted android similarly, continues to be stuck at the rear of the heads of the many industry watchers, not to mention fans.

Design

The Nokia X design is inspired to the Lumia 525 and Asha 503 – the X is a typical rectangular slab with sharper-than-average corners and excellent build quality, the back cover is build with a polycarbonate plastic which make more greater.

Nokia X design is more like Asha 503. The X inherited wit the singular capacitive back button from the Ash Line which make more look's like Asha lineup.Handling Nokia X is easy because of it build that make it more comportable when handling it. Nokia X has a quite low resolution with it's 4inch 480x800 pixel but thanks to IPS that make is viewing angle not the best we can say it good enough for 5,990php phone.

Software Interface

Nokia x runs on a fork android that it chose to call the Nokia X Software Platform with Android Version of Jelly Bean 4.1, It looks drastically different whent talking about the lockscreen it similar to a windows phone.What more good thing about nokia x is its Homescreen which look like Windows 8 UI wher in you can re-sized the tile's nokia x dosent have app drawer but you can make folder on homescreen

Nokia is marketing the Nokia X Fastlane which allows you to access apps easly. The Fastlane is a new dedicated homescreen, inherited from the Asha line. Accessible by swiping left or right from the default homescreen, Fastlane is a separate screen that keeps track of recent apps and also fills with notification-like updates triggered by different events. For example, receiving an SMS text message will register on Fastlane, and so will the latest photo you took with the X's camera. You can control which apps get access to Fastlane on a per-app basis through the Settings.

Performance

Nokia X performance is not the best but surpisingly that Nokia X can handle Asphalt 8 which i think Nokia optimized it for Nokia X. by the way Nokia X is Powered by 1Ghz dual-core Snapdragon S4 MSM8225 processor and it has 512mb of Ram and  proven is insufficient to run Android Frills Free. Also Nokia X is a dual micro sim device with 1 sim 3G and 1 sim 2G. By the way nokia X dosent have Google Services so you cant able to use any apps that need google service specialy Youtube.

Internet and connectivity GPS with Glonass

Nokia X is quite lag specially on facebook apps and it stock browser. So while loading speeds are acceptable for this class, Connectivity is quite impressive it perform well specially on data connection

.

Nokia X best feature is the Map which a really like to this device thanks to glonass and to  the here map apps of nokia really gives us impressive map experience, Map Locking is so fast, Live route redirecting is really accurate.

Camera

Nokia x camera is totally unimpressive, its 3-megapixel camera with fixed focus and no flash can produce a good in a good light condition but it's not that sharp as other also nokia x camera is useless in low light condition check out sampleshoots below.

Camera UI its self is so basic there are shorcuts for white balance and ISO and it has three shooting mode stills, video, and panoramas.

Check camera Sample below : 

Battery

Battery Nokia X has a replaceable 1500 mAh battery, which Noka rates good for up to 17 days satandby any way i just try to full charge it and not use it it last me 6 days which is good. in terms of 3G Nokia X can last up to 2 to 3 hours, In Video Streaming i can last 4 hours of straight streaming. Browsing time up to 4 hours.

Conclusion

Nokia X is not that impressive device but acceptable to purchase since it has a good build but honestly comparing it with other device this device is low as a expected. But if you are a traveler this device is really fitted to you i really like the here map's with glonass which give's you accurate MAP experience.

Nokia at Mobile World Congress launches 3 variants of Nokia android smartphone running on AOSP-based Android and are capable of running Android apps and Microsoft services. After a long wait and a lot of rumors, finally Nokia breaks the silence and launches their first Nokia android smartphone

As Nokia mentioned, the trio are based on Android Open Source Project, a highly modified Android operating system. Clearly said by nokia during the launch that Nokia X,  X+, and XL are running on AOSP with Microsoft Services not Google but Core.

The 3 Nokia android smartphones look like upgraded Asha phones, and it seems that Nokia is committed to promote it heavily for the broad C market.

See the picture below for initial specs and looks.







 

are compatible with Android Apps. The apps may be downloaded from from Nokia Store or 3rd party app stores. You may also sideload APK files that's great about this phone.

Nokia also announce new feature for their Asha phone, Nokia 220 and Asha 230.

Nokia is preparing to unveil its first Android phone later this month. There's a lot of rumors revealing in different groups that Nokia will unveil its "Normandy" phone at Mobile World Congress later this month. Citing sources familiar with Nokia’s plans.Previous reports say that Nokia’s first Android phone will use a modified "forked" version of Google’s operating system. The effort is similar to Amazon’s use of Android for its Kindle range of tablets, and Nokia is expected to integrate Microsoft services onto the device with a special application store for some existing Android apps.

Nokia has scheduled a press event later this month at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, hinting only at "meet us under the tree." The Finnish smartphone-maker also recently teased an upcoming Windows Phone announcement, but we think Nokia will not focus heavily on its future Windows Phone plans at Mobile World Congress. Instead, Nokia will reportedly detail its "Nokia Normandy Phone", which is expected to be named "Nokia X" once it starts shipping. With a lack of Google Play Store access on Nokia’s Android phone, the company may be forced to focus on any apps it has managed to successfully port to its forked version of Android

Previous leaks have revealed that Nokia’s Android device will include a Windows Phone-like UI, and can run Android apps like Skype, Twitter, Vine, Facebook, and BBM. Photos of what appears to be a near-final unit of the "Normandy" Android phone have also appeared, showing a handset that looks similar to Nokia’s low-end Windows Phone devices. While Microsoft continues to target low-cost with Windows Phone, Nokia’s Android phone will also focus on this market with low-end specifications mainly ranging at 4GB of storage and 512MB of RAM. Nokia’s Mobile World Congress press event takes place on February 24th, and we’ll be there to bring you the latest on Normandy
