Nokia X is the entry-level model out of the three devices in the Nokia X family. To recap its specifications, Nokia X features an 800 x 480 display, 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor, 512MB of RAM, 4GB internal storage, expandable up to 32GB via MicroSD card, 3-megapixels fixed focus rear camera, and dual-SIM capability.
The Nokia X runs Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean but it has been skinned to a feel of Windows Phone. It can run Android apps but can’t download directly from Google Play due to the phone OS built from Android Open Source Project version of the operating system. Users are still able to access plenty of third party apps using APKs that are readily available online. The Nokia X also doesn’t support Google services like Gmail, Maps, Hangout and many others. For that you will have to use Nokia and Microsoft services like Here and Outlook.
Nokia X is priced at RM399 and it is available from Nokia dealers nationwide.
