What if the other way around.

Suppose I have a Nexus phone, and I want to install Nokia AoL Store on my Nexus, the same way I install Amazon AppStore. Is it possible ?

Can apps from Nokia AoL Store run on general Android phones without problem ?

Because Nokia X use Snapdragon, I was thinking apps on AoL Store will naturally be limited for Snapdragon chipset.

            It's better for not implement Play Store as well as Google Service, they consume more battery. At this Price, this would be a Killer 🔫🔫

                  playstore for what.? games.? rest all essential apps are covered. For all those who are crying,... Nokia maps are the best in business. Whatelse you need.? whatsapp? that will be covered for sure.

                  make a list of the most important things you do on your playstore enabled android phones friends, except games most of the apps are there in windows and will be in Nokia asha store soon. if gaming is important buy a ps4 guys, or else buy a nexus tab. Simply don't hate this beautiful phone from nokia.

                  last thing...! drop your powerful, sexy shamesung, shitTC phone and see what happens. Drop a Nokia phone, and it will still be alive with just a small scratch.

                            At price point of Rs 6100-coupled with trusted Nokia name-this would be a killer.

                                    No play store doesnt matter much if we can side-load apps.
