Full specs of Nokia XL are online a Nokia Developer website:

http://developer.nokia.com/devices/device-...ations/nokia-xl

1. Confirm Android 4.1 version
2. SoC is Qualcomm SnapDragon MSM8225 which is dual core 1.0GHz based on 45nm - very old - used to have that on my Sony Ericson Xperia Mini series

Suddenly don't feel interest anymore cause of low spec (RAM and storage as well) and older version of Android...

I told you guys already just hear what Nokia CEOhave to say going the Android route. Check the video.
http://www.engadget.com/2014/02/24/nokia-x-elop/

Summary for those don't wanna see the video.
- Nokia using Android as a feeder system for the Windows Phone.
- Elop CEO says it is introductory phone for Android users to get the feel of WP with the Android tiles.
- They will use Android to push for more users to have the full experience by upgrading to the Lumia.
- Nokia/Microsoft have no connection with Google at all regarding this phone.

I think I will get one XL as a testing and play around.
For Real business, will get when it decide to have a flagship model
PureView + ARMOLED.

Since I am using Windows Phone, This UI is fine and this is just android with "Microsoft Service" instead of "Google Service" . Well it will be easy for me to just load in my Microsoft Account Contact and no longer need to import and export between Google .

After so many years even microsoft cant get their WP right so especially these conflict between microsoft and google service will take forever. I will get a Nokia Android when they have pureview as 2nd phone and not first.

SoyaCincau very bad comments about the XL model :

The Nokia X experience is neither here nor there. It is as if Dr. Frankenstein put together bits of Android and pieces of pseudo Lumia to create an abomination. Yes, that’s how bad it is. The home screen is a mess. You have a mixture of icons that look like you’re using Windows Phone but on the same home screen you see third-party app icons that look third rate. It is painful to use.

Speaking of apps, with the Nokia X, you can’t access the Google Play store and along with it the millions of apps available, instead Nokia has created a specific app store for the Nokia X platform. Most of the apps in the store are direct ports form Google but with a key difference — the apps use Nokia’s API instead of Google. So if an app needs to use maps to track your location, it will do so using Nokia’s Here Maps instead of Google Maps. So while the Nokia X devices use Android, not all Android apps are compatible with the devices, developers will have to tweak the API first before it can be used with the Nokia.

The navigation is no better either. You don’t get a home button instead you navigate with just one back button that take you to different places depending on where you are in the interface — sometimes it takes you back one screen, sometimes it takes you to the home screen, other times it will just loop you around and around screen after screen after screen. You don’t know exactly where you are when using the Nokia X.

And there’s the overall performance. In a nutshell, it’s slow and it’s laggy but then again what do you expect from a dual-core 1GHz processor with less that 1GB of RAM and only 4GB of on-board storage. Nokia says there’s a reason for the mediocre hardware. In Nokia’s grand scheme of things, the Nokia X is created for emerging markets, a way to make cheap devices for users who wan’t all the features of a smartphone at the price of a feature phone. But even when compared to other cheap smartphones the Nokia X falls flat.

The cheapest Nokia X is expected to sell for RM400, that’s dirt cheap for a smartphone but consider this, the Xiaomi Redmi with its 4.7-inch 720p Gorilla Glass 2 display, its quad-core 1.5GHz processor, 1GB RAM and 8MP main camera runs Android 4.2 and retails for less than RM450. How would you then justify buying a Nokia X when there are better cheaper Android devices in the market? The answer is obvious isn’t it — you don’t.

After so much hype, this is not the Android that you’re looking for.

Wow, so fast selling in Malaysia....

Yeah, this is why I am disappointed with Nokia X series. This is Year 2014, if u want to target low entry, fine but at least show some unique features....
