We all have been waiting for years for the much anticipated Nokia Android Smartphones. We regularly saw rumors and fan-made concept Nokia Android Smartphones which never saw daylight. All our hopes were on seeing a Nokia Android Smartphones were completely lost when Microsoft proposed and bought Nokia’s mobile manufacturing division last year.
But few months after the Nokia-Microsoft acquisition, strange news started to pop out. Rumors stated that Nokia was behind the scenes on introducing an Android-powered Nokia hardware. We all got surprised and thrilled with the news, and took it with a pinch of salt. But time passed, and the rumors of the proposed Nokia Android Phones became more solid and real. And finally, to surprise us all to the core, Nokia announced not one, but three different Android powered hardware at the MWC [Mobile World Congress] event held at Barcelona.
Nokia X, Nokia X+ and the Nokia XL are respectively the Android-powered handsets released by Nokia at MWC. The Nokia X being the lower-end and the Nokia XL being the higher-end Smartphone of the three. However, all these three Nokia Android Smartphones have equally targeted towards the budget Android Smartphone buyers.
