Nokia says 75% of all Android apps are compatible with Nokia X

25 February, 2014
The rest 25% will need only about 8 hours of porting work, according to Nokia's dev papers.

The Nokia X family is absolutely good.But Nokia you have to provide more and more facilities like Nfc...If a mobile with 4 inch screen,with the same modified android platform and 8MP sugar...No one can beat you..

      Dear Nokia,

      This will not work out. You need to launch as below

      Software : 100% Android KITKAT
      Harware : Fully Nokia

      If you come like this no one can stop you.

      Pls understand buyers mind....

              I have waited for long for Nokia Android phone. Now its coming but without Google services. Why can't Nokia make a correct decision and provide fully featured Android phone.
              I believe many people will switch back to Nokia due to its phones reliability, build, design and service.

              I guess I just have to wait more.

Nokia X will sell better than Kindle. As for Google's work - yes, stealing your data and serving you advertisements is hard work. Someone has to stop Google's monopoly.

They will still get revenues from iOS.

                                    What Nokia is doing is ripping off Google's work without giving anything back in return. And Google cannot do anything to stop them since all the code is Opensource. Microsoft used a similar tactic to get Netscape browser out of market for IE world domination.
