normandy! what happen to mountain view? as 4 me nokia is l8 to da party, whose market share are they going to eat from,iOs,or d androd itself. sorry u r nuked noks
Okay folks!.. uh.. don't be so tough on this one. obviously, it is a low end android, so dont assune that it will be fighting against other upper tier phones.
We still don't know what it is like without google support on an android and based on what nokia had shown with its experimentation with alot of OSes that they have handled. they are known to be a master of hardware optimization.
If this android phone was able to do the impossible. I will buy the idea that nokia can beat google with its own android.

Dual core and 512MB RAM is definitely NOT good for android.It will be laggy as hell after only a short amount of time depending on it's UI and bloatware
Anonym, 31 Jan 2014You are right, it's only in your mind.
There is nothing that would make a dirt-cheap Android ... moreS40 cannot compete with android if you are in for a smatphone. but it is defenitely much better than android if you use the phone only for basic tasks.even nokia S40 based phones from 5 or 6 years ago easily beats your android phone in terms of standby time.it is more reliable.
AdamBoy64, 31 Jan 2014Yes, it makes you wonder.
If they kill off S40, that would be.. massive.

There is nothing that would make a dirt-cheap Android any less reliable than the obsolete S40 (both in hardware and software).
Keep in mind something that the Chinese Huawei already figured out with their Y300, as hardware evolves you start reaching a point where computing power becomes cheap and readily accessible even at entry level.
Translation:
We've reached a point in hardware evolution where the new low-end (and dirt cheap) SoCs are already good enough to power a decent smartphone (one that is similar to a mid-ranger from a year or two ago).
Fail!!. Sorry Nokia,but Microsoft is to fragment the competition!!.
this wud b my first Nandroid device.... :D:D
best hardware + gud OS(with apps n time pass stuff).
w8ing for this little piece...

In my mind, a massive mistake.
A low-end Android device won't be anywhere near as reliable as an S40 device.
Maybe getting rid of S40 would just be about cutting development costs, I don't know.
ragz4ragz, 30 Jan 2014I am sure it is Asha based handset with support for Android apps also. Such a waste of time I ... moredear bro,
it cant b a asha handse because asha handset needs very little ram like 60mb-70mb...... nd it also cant b windows bcoz lumia 520 has d same specs nd its specs r of a fone wid android. ....... nd if it is not andreoid it is sailfish os.... which can run android apps on it...
Android is already too fragmented by itself - it doesnt need MS at all
lol, 30 Jan 2014first thing gonna do after getting this phone. root and change the ROMWay to go... I'll be doing the same if it gets to my country
I am sure it is Asha based handset with support for Android apps also. Such a waste of time I kept so many hopes on it....Nokia I hate you :x
Just another attempt by Microsoft to fragment the competition.
Anonymous, 30 Jan 2014why microsoft allowing this to become reality ...pls someone explains40 os is outdated, microsoft /nokia dont want to waste time, energy and money developing a platform which is going down anyway.so this remains the option.
Hope they put Java emulator in there,one of reason I'm avoiding the Lumia.
