First Android smartphone from Nokia reportedly in the works, to launch in 2014
In a totally unexpected twist of events, it looks like Nokia, the biggest supporter of the Windows Phone platform will release its very first ever Android smartphone in 2014. The Verge has claimed to get strong details from sources that Nokia’s codenamed gadget, the Nokia Normandy is actually being tested on the Android OS and will be released next year.
Anyway, the news claim that Nokia is testing out the gadget on a forked line-up of the Android OS, just like Amazon, so it may not come with default Google apps installed on the gadget. But still, it's good news for all the Nokia mobile phone fans out there praying for the company to introduce an Android-based smartphone.
Multiple sources familiar with the plans of the Finnish smartphone manufacturers expect the Nokia Normandy to be an entry-level Android smartphone, designed to impress budget-conscious android phone buyers across the world.
Nokia Mobile is currently in the process of being taken over by the software giant, Microsoft and we aren't sure how an Android gadget fits into the overall strategy or whether we will actually get to see the gadget in the wild or not.
In a separate leak, @Evleaks has listed an image of the Nokia Normandy (listed above), but hasn’t confirmed that the smartphone is being tested with Android. No other information regarding the device are available at the moment, but we will keep you updated if anything else pops up about this first Nokia Android Mobile phone.
