What is Nokia Android Phone? (Updated)

Update 3: 

Nokia is officially launching its very first Android devices, known as the X , the X+ and the XL on stage at its annual Mobile World Congress press conference. Nokia says will give the advantage of the Android ecosystem, but with a "differentiated experience." So far, Here Maps, MixRadio, Skype and Outlook will be offered. You can access the Nokia and third party stores using the devices, but not Google Play, obviously.The Nokia X is available immediately, in countries including  India, for 89 Euros, while the Nokia X+ and the Nokia XL will be available in the second quarter of this year for 99 Euros and 109 Euros respectively.

Update 2: 

• Nokia just change its profile colour to green on all its social networks.(not quite as android)
• https://plus.google.com/+Nokia
• https://www.facebook.com/nokia
• https://twitter.com/nokia
• Update Nokia has reverted back to its signature Blue colour. 

• Nokia also send its invitation for MWC some weeks back which was also green. So its could be either green = environment  or green = android .

• Vietnamese online retailer price the Nokia Normandy near the price tag of  $110  

•  Smartphone vendors pay a license fee to Google to get services like the Google’s Play app store, Google Maps, Gmail and others. However, Nokia won't use any of Google’s services and will instead implement its own and Microsoft services, which means it won't have to pay Google any licensing fee.
•  Nokia has already developed its own app store for the platform(NO Google Playstore and IT APPS) which already have most of the top 100 apps on the store.

Update 1: 
Its expected to be introduce in MWC and to be launch in month of March. Expected price is sub $100.It is also rumor that the Nokia X will come in 6 different color options. The Nokia X embodies Nokia's Asha line design language A polycarbonate body is what encases the device within, and even signature Asha cues, like the left chevron (the '<' symbol) capacitive button are making an appearance. In fact, being likened to the Asha line has given rise to a an alternative theory that the Nokia X may be, after all, a new generation of Asha.

Much have been said, heard and read about Nokia's Android phone codenamed 'Normandy' and it could soon be a reality now. The handset is designed as the next step in low-end phones from the Finnish smartphone maker. We know that Nokia has been testing “Normandy” with a special modified variant of Android, like to what Amazon does with its Kindle Fire line.

UI of the Phone 

Specification Known

According to the Vietnamese online listing, the alleged Nokia X will come with a 4-inch TFT display with a resolution of 480 x 854 (FWVGA) pixels; 1GHz dual-core Snapdragon 200 processor; 5-megapixel rear camera; microSD card support and running Android 4.4 KitKat.Further, the listing seemingly confirms that the rumoured Nokia X will come with dual-SIM support, while connectivity options including 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPRS, EDGE, AGPS and Micro-USB. Other specifications include 4GB of inbuilt storage and Adreno 302 GPU.Its definitely true that this device is a budget phone and will run highly modified version of android kitkat which look likes windows phone but will let users access the Google Play Store.

BUT what exactly is Nokia doing with this android phone when their Mobile business is going to sell to the microsoft.

• I think Nokia is doing this to ensure that the deal between Microsoft and Nokia don't scrape off as microsoft will be afraid that its ONLY windows OEM will shift to android.(which is most likely not to happen)
• Also as from the leaks we have seen that the UI phone is similar to the Windows phone so I may be possible that microsoft is only doing this to let people experience windows UI but with android under hood.This will ensure that people will get to know windows phone better and in future people will buy windows phone .
