Nokia has launched its new family of Android-based smartphone - the Nokia X in India. The phone runs on the new Nokia X software platform, which is based on Google's Android. However, the other two models in the Series - X+ and XL have not been unveiled yet.
“India is one of the fastest growing markets for smart phones in the world. With the launch of Nokia X, we are adding more ammunition to our smartphone portfolio. We believe Nokia X is a unique combination of Nokia quality and experiences, Microsoft services and Android™ apps. It will resonate with consumers and set a great precedent for the level of quality that can be achieved in the fast-growing, affordable smartphone segment,” said P Balaji, MD, Nokia India.
The phones under the Nokia X family are not pure Android phones; these phones instead run a variant of Android. Nokia has taken the open-source elements of Android and has pulled in other elements of Asha and Windows Phone to offer its users a different experience.
Out of the box, consumers can enjoy signature Nokia experiences including free HERE Maps, with true offline maps and integrated turn-by-turn navigation, and Nokia MixRadio for free music streaming and downloadable playlists.
