Nokia X2 is the first Android-based smartphone being made by
Microsoft. Nokia brand is still being used despite previously
saying it didn’t plan to trade on that name for long. I guess Microsoft is still thinking of the name to re-brand with. The Nokia X2 is not the first Android device Microsoft owns, being
as Redmond took over Nokia’s mobile making division in
April – a move which brought the original Nokia X
device under its wing. But some
doubted whether Microsoft approved of Nokia’s
Android experiment — and
speculated that the line would be quickly culled by Redmond.
The X2 supports dual-SIM — a popular feature in emerging
markets where Microsoft will be hoping the Nokia X platform can better compete
with other Android rivals than Windows Phone have been able to, thanks to those
plentiful Android apps — and by reaching a lower price tag than entry-level
Lumia's can. The Nokia X2 extends the original trio of devices on the platform which
were the Nokia X, X+ and XL.
