The Nokia X: *snickers*

Shield your eyes folks cause here we go!

It seems that Nokia made true to their work and delivered to us a baby that can only be described as ".....is this really necessary?"

Enter the Nokia X, X+ and XL; it's what happens when Android and Windows sleeps together. I mean look at this thing:

It burns my eyes.

Like many Nokia phones, this one is pretty much the same as the rest. The only real difference is that metro, Window's look is being powered by Android instead of what should be Windows Phone 8; and by god does Nokia really sin with this Android skin.

While it will still remain possible to side load Play Store apps, the exclusion of the Google Play Store in favor of Nokia's own botched app store is a pretty big downside. While of course their own app store will have a lot of good apps (I hope), the idea that users will have to rely on a third party app store is kinda chilling.

Instead of widgets, you get individual colored tiles that you can shape to your liking. It's pretty much what would happen if Microsoft ever got the idea to put widgets in Windows Phone 8 (Not that it's a bad idea).

However, what people should realize is that this is actually a combination of two OS types. You have the Window's like screen then you have Nokia's own Asha Fastlane; which is basically the same concept as HTC's Sense home screen.

The only problem is that you get the flood of apps owned by Windows with your package; Skype, a variety of office apps, that Mix radio thing along with a load of others. Clogging the already tiny amount of storage space

Obviously, this phone isn't intended for high end users. This is low end beyond anything. Here are the specs of the base Nokia X model

• 1 GHz Dual Core Snapdragon Processor
•  An 800x480, 4 inch display
• Dual SIM
• 512 MB's of RAM
• 4 GB's of internal storage (With expandable microSD storage up to 32 GB's)
• A 5 megapixel camera
• 1500 mAh battery

I mean, at least it comes in 6 different colors, right?

For North American users, you will most likely never see this phone in the market as Nokia intends to sell this one to developing markets in Asia, The Middle East and parts of Central and South America.

Of course, I have a feeling that sometime in the future; perhaps soon, we will see these kinds of phones pop up in our markets.

So brace yourselves....Windroid is coming.
