We have come across multiple leaks, rumours and speculations about Nokia’s first Android-powered smartphone – Nokia X – from different sources including some bigger banner media companies to small time leakers in China; however, the latest report comes from none other than the Wall Street Journal with a claim that Nokia X will be releasing at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2014 later this month.
Unlike other Android devices Nokia X is not going to highlight Google services, but will instead focus on Nokia HERE range of apps and services – at least that’s what the rumours have been indicating.
Further the Nokia X will not be a high-end Android smartphone, but is a gadget with low-to-medium end specifications meant for emerging markets like India where Nokia still holds a good enough market share thanks to its feature phones.
The dual-SIM Nokia X is said to be powered by 1GHz dual-core Snapdragon SoC, 4-inch WVGA screen, 512MB RAM, 4GB internal storage and support for microSD card, 5-megapixel rear camera, and 1500mAh battery.
Multiple leaks by @evleaks, appearance of the handset on Indonesian and Malaysian certification authorities’ websites, appearance on Vietnam’s top online retailer’s website and other such leaks have all been pointing at an eminent release of Nokia X.
It is also rumoured that Nokia will be revealing Lumia 1820, Lumia 1520, Lumia 635 and other gadgetry at the MWC 2014.
