    API 19 is for Android 4.4.x Kitkat. Not Jellybean 4.3

      [deleted post]True.

      Qualcomm only supports S4 Play up to JB 4.3. Thats why the previous-gen X series didn't support the X software platform 2.0 as said.

        I think its due to that Home button which is not avalable in Nokia X X+ and XL.

            Half baked products by these phone makers, consumers pay the price.

                AnonD-92238, 24 Jun 2014Reminds me of Nokia Lumia 900. :DHAHAHA!

                Really is reminiscent of the Nokia Lumia 900, many people were screwed over on that dud of a phone, just like the X+ and XL users are being done now.

                  This is really stupid. Those phones can run API 19.

                    Another lame excuse from Microsoft as they did to early Lumias and first Surface with RT. It is terrible for the consumers.Not buying Nokia phones anymore they fully lose the glory they have in late 90s and 2000s.

                      My oh my, Microsoft, not at all a good start, the Nokia X, X+ and XL are barely 6weeks old in the market, lol. Oh dear.

                        I can understand for the X (it has only 512MB RAM), but X+ and XL? Seriously MS?
                        P.S. I love the picture in the article!
